Meihe Villa

Meihe Villa is a residential building from the early 20th century in Daxi featuring traditional Chinese architectural elements and wooden structures. The building contains multiple rooms, covered walkways, and decorative details that show how homes were designed during that era.

The building was originally constructed as a military police station before 1970 and takes its name from plum blossoms and water lilies, symbols of that force. The villa has maintained its original structure to the present day.

The villa reflects a blend of local building practices and Western influences that shaped how people lived in the early 20th century. The rooms and decorative details show how traditional and modern ideas met at that moment in time.

Visitors can reach the villa by taking National Highway 3 and then following Provincial Roads 16 and 21 to Daxi District. The site is best explored on foot, with straightforward paths leading to the entrance.

The building has survived multiple strong earthquakes without significant damage, demonstrating the superior quality of its wooden construction and materials. This resilience came from craftsmanship and knowledge passed down through generations of builders.
