Lingshui Village is a famous historical and cultural village of China. Despite of a population of only over 200 households, the village has a lot of respect for teachers and attaches great importance to education. Hence, studying hard has become the trend here all along. Back in the Ming and Qing Dynasties when imperial examination system were introduced, the village had cultivated twenty-two recommended men (juren), two advanced scholars (jinshi) and ten-odd Guozijian scholars (jiansheng) enrolled by Guozijian School. Till the early period of the Republic of China, six people who were born here graduated from Yanjing University, giving rise to the unique cultural phenomenon of fostering a galaxy of contemporary scholars and a host of modern celebrities. Moreover, the first episode of Where Are We Going, Dad?, a Chinese reality parent-children TV show broadcast on Hunan Television, was filmed here. All houses where stars lived are well preserved and opened to tourists.
