There are "dry fence" buildings, bungalows and slate houses, and the most distinctive one is actually slate houses. So, do you know anything about the architectural culture of Buyi people?

Next, let's study together from the perspective of national culture!

Brief introduction of Buyi architecture

Buyi architecture is a Buyi folk house. Buyi people are used to living near water. The village is surrounded by mountains and waters, surrounded by dense bamboo forests or geomantic trees. There are many fields in front of the village, surrounded by rivers and streams, surrounded by Liu Chengxing, which is a beautiful pastoral scenery. Many nationalities in this village share the same surname. Most people who live in Pingba have low-walled courtyards, while those who live in mountainous areas have their houses built on the mountain due to terrain restrictions. The buildings are superimposed, and some are built into "hanging houses". The first half is a building and the second half is a bungalow, which is a continuation of the "dry fence building" in history. Buyi people living in different areas have different houses. From the shape point of view, there are column buildings, diaojiao buildings and bungalows; As for materials, there are wood structures, wood and stone structures, civil structures and stones. ...

Coming to Buyi village is like entering a magical stone kingdom. This kind of house is neat and beautiful, warm in winter and cool in summer, windproof, rainproof and fireproof. Hongshui River Basin is also one of the most important forest areas in China.

Shibanfang

The notable feature of Shibanfang Buyi folk houses is that they live by mountains and rivers. Most of the residential buildings are dry-column buildings or semi-buildings (buildings in front of the first half and bungalows behind the second half). Buyi areas such as Zhenning and Anshun in Guizhou are rich in high-quality stone, and there are also large flat stone slabs that can be uncovered layer by layer and have a basically uniform thickness. This thin stone comes from water-bearing shale.

According to local conditions, the local Buyi people used local materials to build slate houses with national characteristics. Stone slab houses are made of stone strips or stones, and the wall height can reach five or six meters; Covering the roof with slate, paving it in a neat diamond shape or paving it in a scale shape with materials, the stone house is not only impervious to wind and rain, but also simple and beautiful, with a light roof, easy to live and no sense of oppression. In a word, except sandalwood rafters are made of wood, the rest are made of stone, and even tables, stools, stoves, bowls, bowls, grinders, troughs, altars and basins used in daily life are made of stone. Everything is simple and honest. This kind of house is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is moisture-proof and fire-proof, but the lighting is poor.

Shilou

In Chengguan Town, where the county seat of Zhenning Buyi and Miao Autonomous County is located, most houses are made of stone, and there are dozens of stone buildings with three or four floors. Because the stone is pale gray, it is more crystal clear and clean after processing, so when you look at Zhenning during the day, the silver light flashes; Looking at Zhenning on a moonlit night, the frost covers the snow. Because of this, it was called "Yinzhenning" and "Yinzhenning" in ancient times. The stone buildings in this town have a long history of more than 600 years, which is both solidified music and immortal epic.

Buyi architecture has a lot to pay attention to. When building a house, you should first ask the Yin and Yang teachers to look at the "Feng Shui", not only with their backs against the green hills, but also facing the green peaks. Then choose an auspicious day to build a house. A month before the auspicious day, we asked a carpenter to make a house frame. The auspicious day for building a house is dedicated to Master Luban. When the house was put up, my father-in-law sent me a girder with big flowers of red silk tied on it, and a band and a lion dance team set off firecrackers. Song and dance ceremonies and banquets will also be held on the beam. Finally, take the ancestral tablet and the kitchen god (charcoal fire) to the new house. The whole process of building a new house is filled with the atmosphere of jubilation and mutual assistance in Buyi villages.

Buyi architecture is a unique folk house produced by the interaction of national customs and regional culture. It is the unique expression of Buyi culture and the embodiment of Buyi religious belief.
