## About Likeng Village (Ikeng)

Ikeng Village was founded in the early Southern Song dynasty. Its villagers are well-educated and courteous to their neighbours. The village preserves many Ming and Qing official residences, such as the Shangshu Residence, the Tianguan Shangqing Residence and Jiamu Hall. All are exquisitely crafted, with bracketed eaves and upturned roof corners. Pine trees and bamboo set off the black-tiled, white-walled houses, while ancient paths, stone bridges and rushing streams complete a picture of remarkable harmony.
