Old-lined
“Yunjincheng”
A city with three thousand years’
history can be called an ancient city
and a courtyard with three hundred years’
can be called an old-line one. Historical
Yunjincheng is combined by eighteen
elegant and unique courtyards.
Every courtyard is full of folk propitious
and auspicious atmosphere, which reflects
people’s longing for nice life.The former
of the first west courtyard of Yunjincheng
was Yuantaichang Cloth Shop invested
by Qiao Family.
Because of drought
in 1877 in Shanxi, the number of victims
of the calamity increased and many shops
went bankrupt. While Qiao Family managed
cloth and gradually enlarged its business
to tobacco and hockshop, at last its
branches expanded into over ten commercial
cities in this country.
After more than thirty years’ hard
work, Qiao Huaijin and Qiao Huaijie
set up Yuantaichang cloth shop in 1907,
which became the outstanding and unique
one. The luxurious guest room is from
the old house of the rich and powerful
family in Ming and Qing Dynasty.In the
grand hall hangs the plaque with “Worldwide
Business”.It is elegant and silent in
the courtyard while prosperous and noisy
out of it.The exquisite windows and
skilled colored drawing vividly put
the auspicious and philosophic culture
up.
We can see many carvings
made of wood, stone and brick here, which
implicated rich and colorful cultural connotation.
And the splendiferous classified furniture
gives us a picture of luxury and grandness.
The coordinate two courtyards
were both of tens of meters long combined
by four yards. There is a wood carving at
the top of the door in the middle yard. All
the houses are equipped with double layers
of door and window. A screen door was especially
equipped apart from the main doors.The screen
door will be open only to welcome the important
visitors. In the mentioned wood carving there
are “origin of happiness”, “prosperity and
peace” and “lucky accumulation”, which means
longing for peace, good luck and happiness
