雄村是歙县有名的古村落之一,距离县城只有八九公里。车在平滑的柏油公路上行驶,一会儿就到达雄村。


雄村原名“洪村”,元末时改名“雄村”。

村口的牌坊可见过去区分牌坊的等级。

农家乐门前专场子的左侧有一片规模不小的建筑,只见灰瓦白墙,门楼高挑,红灯高悬,抱鼓相峙,石狮拱卫,气度不凡。



这里的“竹山书院”是徽州现存最完整的书院,书院门前,绿树掩映中的一条小径便是当年联通两岸的古渡驿道,而这条驿道则是建在一条长达数里的沿江堤坝之上,因坝上遍植桃花而被称为“桃花坝”。桃花坝下,临水岸边每隔一定距离便筑有石墩一座,绵延数里状如城堞。对岸青山如黛,倒映水中,水生镜相,难辩幻真,远处的山间更是云雾迷蒙,妙如仙境。
