Pasting Paper-cuts

贴窗花

    Paper-cuts, usually with auspicious patterns, give a happy and prosperous atmosphere of the Festival and express the good wishes of Chinese people looking forward to a good life. In addition to pasting paper-cuts on windows, it is common for Chinese to paste the character 'fu（福）', big and small, on walls, doors and doorposts around the houses. 'Fu（福）' shows people's yearning toward a good life. Some people even invert the character 'fu（福）' to signify that blessing has arrived because 'inverted' is a homonym for 'arrive' in Chinese. Now many kinds of paper-cuts and 'fu（福）' can b

    宏村位于安徽省黟县的东北部，距西递村18公里。宏村现有保存完整的明清古民居140余幢。它以秀美的南湖风光，奇特的牛型村落，恢宏的民间故宫，征服了联合国教科文组织的专家们，2000年底与西递村同时金榜题名，荣登世界文化遗产宝座。

    宏村被人们称为“中国画里的乡村”，果真是名不虚传。

    西递位于安徽省黟县东南部，是一个东西长约700米，南北宽约300米，两条山溪自东向西穿村而过，整个村庄状若船型。

    西递，古名西川，又名西溪，取溪水西流之意。（这一点就和我们所熟悉的“滚滚长江东逝水”的景象有所区别了。）因此，有人认为这就是西递村得名的原因。不过，也还存在着另一种说法：西递地处古徽州府之西，朝廷曾在此设立传邮之驿站——“铺递所”而得名。

    西递是一处以宗族血缘关系为纽带、胡姓子孙聚族而居的古村落。最鼎盛的清代“乾嘉”年间，西递宅院多达600多座，有99条巷子，90多口水井，34座祠堂，13座牌坊，近万人口，号称是”三千烟灶九千丁”。

    下面我们就一起来看看这美丽的古村落吧。
