Qingyang Village belongs to Shimen Town. It is an ancient town with a long history. As early as the Neolithic period, there were human activities here. Many pottery wares with Shang and Zhou seal patterns were unearthed at the Huangnigang site. At the entrance of the ancient village stands a tall and sturdy thousand-year-old camphor tree. 200 meters to the east of the village is an ancient Qingyang Tower.
A ‘wen’-shaped Wenchuan Stream runs through the village. There are a group of simple old buildings in the village, revealing the solemnity of history. Among them are scenic spots such as the ancestral home of Qingyang, the ancestral hall of Qingyang, the Celebrity Hall of the Maos, and the former residence of Mao Zishui. There is still a plaque of ‘Ancient Residence of Qingyang’, which was inscribed by Hu Shi. Qingyang Village is a historical and cultural village. Hundreds of households in the whole village are all surnamed Mao. It is the birthplace of the Maos in the south of the Yangtze River and the ancestral home of Mao Fumei and Mao Yanwen, the wife of Xiong Xiling. Talents of the Maos in Qingyang emerge in large numbers. For thousands of years, there have been 8 ministers and 83 successful candidates in the highest imperial examinations. The ‘Genealogy of the Maos in Qingyang’ was selected into the ‘China Archival Document Heritage List’ for the first time and has become a national treasure.
