夕佳山民居

Xijia Mountain Residential Complex is a traditional housing estate in Sichuan province built using regional construction techniques that reflect local architectural methods. The structures employ locally sourced materials and building practices adapted to the region's mountainous terrain and climate conditions.

The complex developed over centuries as construction methods and settlement patterns adapted to the Sichuan region and shaped local building styles. Its designation as a nationally protected cultural site in 2019 acknowledged its importance to understanding Chinese residential architecture.

The residential complex demonstrates how local families traditionally lived together, with houses arranged around inner courtyards where daily life and work took place. This spatial layout reflects social ties and economic practices that persisted across generations.

The site is accessible year-round, allowing visitors to explore the traditional building methods on location. Guided tours help visitors understand the construction techniques and how regional materials were used throughout the complex.

Today the complex serves as a research center documenting how traditional Chinese houses were planned and built. Scholars study the building techniques and materials to preserve historical residential methods for future generations.
