Da Shui Yu Village
Da Shui Yu Village is named after the pass, called "Da Shui Valley" in ancient times, the name of the village is now seen in the gold, flourishing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it is the first big village in the northeast direction at the foot of the Great Wall of Huairou. Because it is located in the fortress, the strategic position is very important, and it is the easternmost pass of the Great Wall within the boundary of Huairou District, so it can be said to be "the first pass of Huairou".
As an important pass of the Great Wall of Huairou City, the terrain here is dangerous, and there are cities, as well as granaries for hoarding grain. The concept of "city" here is different from "city", and it and "fort" are both auxiliary military facilities of the Great Wall, but "city" is larger than "fort". The Huairou Great Wall section is called "City" only "Da Shui Yu City", "Huanghua City" and "Bohai City".
In today's Dashuiyu Village, in order to make the village more culturally rich, the local village committee and the professors of the Academy of Fine Arts have jointly created mural works on the walls of every house, so that the whole village has a new look.

Tianxian
At the foot of Huairou Lying Buddha Mountain, there is a beautiful countryside Tianxianyu, with green mountains and green mountains on all sides, and the confluence of two springs is clear. The houses in the village are white-walled and blue-tiled, and the streets are clean and tidy. In front of the village committee, there is a tall and lush locust tree, which is said to have been planted by the ancestors of Tianxianyu Village.
A section of the Great Wall in the north of Tianxianyu Village was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, made of large stone barriers, and the Mutianyu Great Wall was built in the same era. According to the records of Huairou County, in 1404 (the second year of Yongle), the Mutianyu Great Wall Pass in the county was completed. It can be inferred that when the Great Wall was built in this area, Tianxianyu Village was already inhabited.
There is a clear river at the head of Tianxianyu Village, and the river water is formed by the confluence of two springs, Pearl Spring and Longtan Spring. The water of the river is crystal clear, warm in winter and cool in summer, with abundant flow, and the water temperature is very suitable for raising cold-water fish.
Nowadays, relying on the natural and cultural landscapes on the mountain and the abundant water resources, Tianxianyu vigorously develops the three major industries of chestnut planting, rainbow trout breeding and folk tourism, so that the whole village has embarked on the road to prosperity.
There are various types of boutique B&Bs in the village, with different styles. Among them, like the Bulin Mountain Boutique B&B, you can look down at the stream, lie on the bed and watch the starry sky, and the pure white appearance of Tianxianyu Literary and Art Courtyard is full of Nordic style......

Xinying Village
Xinying Village got its name from "Xinying City". The Huairou section of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty has a total of four cities and eighteen forts. Xinying City was built in the 27th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, and its nearby castle, Guan Lou and wall belong to Huanghua Road in Changzhen. Because of its small scale, it is often called a castle or "fort" in modern times. This distinctive military "new camp city" has gradually evolved into today's Xinying Village in the vicissitudes of wind and rain in 470 years.
Today, in Xinying Village, both the ancient trees and telephone poles on the streets have been artistically transformed and become full of creativity. The beautiful rural scenery and clean and tidy streets make the most popular "village coffee" settle here, and among the green mountains and green waters, you can taste a cup of "village coffee" and gain a better experience and leisure fun.
