Abstract

The history of the Jianghuai region is characterized by frequent wars and population movements, creating a unique and diversified residential culture. As an important part of the Jianghuai region, the town of Liujiafan was influenced by two major historical events, namely the emigration from Huizhou in the Southern Song Dynasty and the return of prominent officials from the capital at the end of the Qing Dynasty, which resulted in the formation of distinctive residential dwellings styles by combining the strengths of the craftsmen from the north and the south. Taking the migration path as a clue, on the basis of clarifying the source, route and time of migration, the study focus on analysing the multiple influences of the migration on the traditional residential dwelling forms of Liujiafan town, with a view to perfecting the study of vernacular architecture in the Jianghuai region and supplementing the area and content of the study of Anhui residential dwellings.
