An Ancient Village

There are three ancient villages on my Mid-Autumn-Holiday hiking trail in Anhui Province.

The first one is a village built near the top of a mountain. Its biggest feature is the buildings made of rammed earth.

It's said that first people came here from Henan Province to avoid a war. It was more than 800 years ago. At that time, it was difficult to transport materials up to the mountain. As a result, the people developed a method to construct houses using only the materials available in the mountains.

You can find some pictures here:https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/uOFKkbZIBDolpRovKzfNQw and a video here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELnP2vcdWmM

I really love this small village. It's cozy and relaxing, even just walking along the small stone path.


我中秋节在安徽的徒步路线上,有三个古村落。

第一个是建在山顶附近的一个村庄。它最大的特点是用夯土建造的土楼。

据说第一批村民是从河南来到这里的,为了躲避战乱。那是800多年前的事了。当时,把物资运到山上是很困难的。因此,人们发明了一种方法,只使用山上可用的材料来建造房屋。

你可以在这里找到一些图片:https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/uOFKkbZIBDolpRovKzfNQw和视频:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELnP2vcdWmM

我真的很喜欢这个小村庄。即使只是沿着小石板路漫步其中,也是舒适轻松的。

An Ancient Village

There are three ancient villages on my Mid-Autumn-H holiday hiking trail in Anhui Province.

Mid might also be lowercase.

Its biggest feature is that the buildings are made of rammed earth.

Possible "from rammed earth", but I don't know what you mean by rammed earth.

It's said that firstthe original people that came here fromcame from the Henan Province to avoid a war.

"the first people" is a little awkward since first is more used to compare things to the second or the third people, which does not really make sense here.

IThat was more than 800 years ago.

"that" is used when referencing events, but "it" is okay.

At that time, it was difficult to transport materials up to the mountain.

As a result, the people developed a method to construct houses using only the materials available ion the mountains.

The comma is not needed but adds style.

Thank you so much!

I’ll try to tell the other two stories next time.

An Ancient Village

There are three ancient villages on my Mid-Autumn- Holiday hiking trail in Anhui P/the province of Anhui.

Its main feature is the buildings made of rammed earth./¶
Its biggest feature is the buildings made of rammed earth.

biggest is more like largest in this context. unless you mean there is only one building?

It's said that its first peopleresidents came here from Henan Province to avoidto flee a war.

in English we do not usually say "province" after a province name, better to leave it out here unless it's very formal.
they "fled" a war because it was already happening when they left. if they "avoid" a war it means they don't want a war to happen

It was more than 800 years ago.

At thate time, it was difficult to transport materials up to the mountain.

up to the mountain means it was transported upwards and arrived at the mountain
up the mountain means it was transported to the top of the mountain

As a result, the people developed a method to construct houses using only the materials available in the mountains.

I got your point about ‘main feature’, and you are right on that point.

Its biggest feature is the buildings made of rammed earth.

The biggest feature of the buildings are made of rammed earth.
