[2025 Hangzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for Dongziguan Village (Updated Mar)

​Founded in the Southern Song Dynasty, Dongziguan Village is bordered by the Fuchun River to the north and a small mountain range to the south. It has been an important dock and trading center on the Fuchun River since ancient times. The name of the village comes from the "Dongzi Pass" established here in ancient times, which later evolved into "Dongziguan." Writer Yu Dafu's novel *Dongziguan* is set in this village and describes the protagonist's story of seeking medical treatment here, making Dongziguan Village widely known. The ancient buildings in the village are characterized by white walls, black tiles, and horse-head walls. The well-preserved Xu Family Courtyard, with its carved doors and windows, and courtyard, is a typical example.

Finding tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, I often journey between vibrant cities and peaceful countryside, drawing nourishment from nature and discovering my own way of secluded living. I enjoy strolling along rivers, seeking out the most beautiful villages and embracing a life of leisure. Zhejiang Province boasts numerous picturesque rivers, such as the Fuchun River, Nanxi River, Xin'an River, Huyuan Stream, Fenshui River, and Luzhu River. Walking along these rivers is like admiring a series of flowing landscape paintings – a truly healing, nourishing, and joyful experience. I've written dozens of notes about the Fuchun River, compiled in my "Leisurely Life on the Fuchun River" collection. The Fuchun River embodies the poetry and distant lands that reside within my heart. "I often recall those solitary boat trips in February and March, when the spring mountains seemed to favor the Fuchun River most." Following my heart's desire, I embarked on a rainy riverside hike, where the beauty of the Fuchun River gently nourished my body and soul like the silent spring rain. Videos and photos simply cannot capture the dynamic beauty of the Fuchun River. When you walk along its banks, you'll undoubtedly be captivated by the picturesque scenery and feel a sense of profound happiness. The Fuchun River in the misty rain resembles a flowing "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" painting. As you walk along the riverbank, the expansive river surface, vast fields, and lush greenery create a poetic and picturesque scene that will stir your heart.

Before the Ching Ming Festival, I went to Hangzhou with my girlfriends and drove myself to give you a place where Amway was a small but super-super-superior - Dongyuguan Village. Dongguanguan Village is 60 kilometers away from Hangzhou. There are nearly 100 ancient buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and no tickets are required. The car can be directly driven into the village. The village is particularly quiet, the quaint buildings are wet and rainy, and the commercial traces are not heavy. Among them, the Xu Family Courtyard is a very typical Qing Dynasty courtyard, retaining the elegance of the big family. The Xu Family Courtyard in the rainy days has a deep classical atmosphere, like the residence of a martial arts film hermit, especially suitable for taking pictures. Dongpuguan has a lot of famous doctors, one of whom is Mr. Zhang Shaofu, the orthodox sacred hand. He was in Hangzhou at that time. However, if someone suffers a bone injury, there will be someone who will be Amway: Go to Fuyang orthopedics and find Zhang Shaofu! The "Orthopedics" here is the Anyatang in Dongyuguan. Zhang Shaofu moved to Dongyuguan Village with his ancestral medical skills, and sat down to discuss the hanging pots. After that, he founded the predecessor of Fuyang Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopaedic Hospital, Dongyuguan Orthopedics Hospital. Patients from all over the country come here, and they are bustling. Over time, Dongpuguan has gradually become synonymous with "Fuyang bone injury." The car is driving to the other side is a small square pond. This is the most beautiful place I think of Dongguanguan - Xujia Courtyard. This family is also a family of famous doctors. Xu Shanyuan, the eldest son of Xu Bingshi, the third room of Xu Shifang, is said to have a few dozen miles in the east, no one knows his name and medical ethics.
