Abstract

In the conflict and reconciliation between traditional village culture and modern commercial civilization, Chengkan, a Bagua village in China and the “Hometown of National Treasures,” has developed a scientific and effective mode for the development and protection of ancient villages. Guided by the theory of “Yi,” the people of Chengkan adhered to Simplicity, Variability, and Persistency in planning the layout of the village and held the ideal of a tranquil home in the era of agricultural civilization, rejecting to be over-commercialized when building a beautiful village. They insisted on the model of “two actions and one concealment,” i.e., protecting ancient villages, operating cultural contents, and hiding commercial styles, and steered away from the wrong tendency of building their village into a city park. Committing to transforming Huizhou ancient buildings with Huizhou cultural elements while retaining the key features of Hui-style architecture, they have succeeded in safeguarding the authentic appearance of Huizhou culture while ensuring its sustainability for future generations.
