from 220-280 A.D., will be thrilled to learn that a former residence

The Innovations of The Huizhou Architectural Style
A noticeable feature of Huizhou villages are the high, crenellated
walls that separate neighboring buildings. Called fire-proof
walls, and sometimes fire-wind walls or horse head walls, their
important purpose was to prevent the spread of fire through the
town from one building to the next.
