Puyang, 10 Oct (Zhongxin Net) -- In the junction of Hebei, Lu and Yu, a small village called "Shanqiu Village" was once the "heart" of the Hebei-Luyu Anti-Japanese Base Area, with original red genes, non-renewable red resources, and rich red traditions. Today, it is a red station that spreads positive energy.

Recently, when the reporter visited Shanqiu Village in Qingfeng County, he felt that the local atmosphere here is rich and the red atmosphere is solemn. Although it has gone through more than 70 years of vicissitudes, many of the old residences in the village still exist under the careful protection of the people in the old area, maintaining the typical style of northern houses in the late Qing and early Min, and also highlighting the characteristics of the era of architectural culture in the Central Plains.
