Hidden Gem of Jiangshan 2 - Qingyang Village

[Hidden Gem of Jiangshan 2] Qingyang Village is the ancestral home of the Mao family in Jiangnan, a perfect fusion of history and nature. Mao Zedong's ancestors migrated from Qingyang in Jiangshan, Zhejiang, to Jishui in Jiangxi, and then to Shaoshan in Hunan. A poem describes:

The ancestral home of Qingyang has seen the passage of time,
The Mao family name has remained illustrious through generations.
Ministers and scholars brought glory to their ancestors,
A rich heritage of literary tradition and scholarly pursuits.
Clear waters surround, adding natural beauty,
Green mountains embrace, protecting this precious land.
The lineage of Shaoshan originated from this source,
Earning eternal fame and admiration through the ages.
