Generally, there are some guava trees and some oddly-shaped rocks in a courtyard of a house. The most representative stone house is a compound with houses around courtyard. built in the reign of Emperor Tianqi in Ming Dynasty, the compound has more than 100 rooms and occupies an area of 2 mu (a unit of area). It is just like a palace.
It is said that all the villagers of Stone Village are the descendents of Yu Qian, a minister in Ming Dynasty. A legend has it that all his family members and close relatives took refuge in this remote place when Yu Qian was persecuted to death. They didn’t have much communication with the outside world and ancient folkways and customs still remain in the village.
