Jiyin Stream (汲引水渠): the entrails

Moon Pond (月沼): the stomach

South Lake (南湖): the body


This layout wasn’t only symbolic—it was practical. A network of canals brings fresh mountain spring water to every household, allowing villagers to use it for drinking, washing, irrigation, and fire protection. The water circulates continuously, keeping the environment fresh and healthy.
