Timber-lined Shop in a Historic Chinese Village

A tranquil wide-angle view of a traditional wooden shop in a historic Chinese village. The building features dark stained timber framing, elaborately carved brackets, sweeping tiled roofs, white plaster walls, and lattice windows. Red lanterns hang from the eaves, casting a warm glow onto a worn stone step and a weathered wooden sign with Chinese characters. A cobblestone street winds past neighboring timber houses, with potted bamboo and flowers on window sills. In the distance, mist-shrouded mountains or a calm canal reflect the soft golden hour light. The scene is bathed in amber sunlight, with long shadows and a gentle atmospheric haze, capturing a timeless, peaceful mood. Texture should feel either photorealistic with fine wood grain or painterly with smooth brushwork; color palette emphasizes earthy browns, ochres, deep reds, and muted greens. Optional: a few villagers in traditional dress strolling, adding life without clutter.
