During Chenghua period of Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of residents of Daoyun Building asked surveyors to choose a site to build the building. The surveyor came here for the first time and thought it was a good place. After careful consideration, he traveled dozens of kilometers and visited several places, but he still felt that he was not as good as this place and came back. This is called "unlucky". Later, when the name was chosen, it was called "Daoyunlou" with the homonym of "unlucky".

The era when Daoyun Building was built was one of frequent wars. In order to resist the invasion of foreign enemies, the exterior wall of Gu Lou is equipped with gun holes and gun ports, and the top of the building door is equipped with a water-filled culvert, which can prevent the building door from burning, shuddering, rural fights, thieves, livestock, drought, cold and heat, fires, floods, earthquakes and so on.
