Mao's cultural village in Qingyang

The Maos cultural village in Qingyang, about 20 kilometers away from the urban area, is located at the foot of Jianglang Mountain. Hundreds of families in the village all have the surname Mao. It is the birthplace of the Maos in Jiangnan, the ancestral home of Mao Zedong. It is also the ancestral home of Mao Fumei, the former wife of Chiang Kai Shek in Fenghua, and Mao Yanwen, the wife of Xiong Xiling, the first Prime Minister of the Republic of China. It has been 1500 years since Mao Yuanqiong, the eighth generation ancestor of Mao family in Jiangnan, moved here. In history, there have been 8 Shangshu and 83 Jinshi, which have accumulated the historical and cultural heritage of "a long history, a large number of talented people, cultivating and reading heirs, being expensive but not rich".

The Qing Yang Mao's genealogy, which was first compiled in the sixth year of Yuanfeng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1083 A.D.), was identified by the national archives as the first batch of 48 precious documents of national treasure level in China, and was collected by the national archives. According to the research, Shaoshan Mao is the descendant of Qing Yang Mao, Mao Zedong is the 56th generation of Qing Yang Mao. In December 2006, Qingyang held a ceremony to welcome the genealogy given by the Mao clan in Shaoshan, Hunan Province. In 2006, it was rated as the third batch of provincial historical and cultural villages. In May 2007, Mao's ancestral home, Mao Zishui's former residence, hall of fame and Qingyang tower were opened to the public one after another.
