Chen Clan Ancestral Hall in Guangzhou

#chinaattractions Let's go to Chen Clan Ancestral Hall in Guangzhou! The Chen Clan Academy, also known as the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, is one of Guangzhou’s most significant historical attractions. If you visit Guangzhou, this is a must-see destination. Built in 1890, the hall is an example of traditional Cantonese architecture. It was constructed using funds contributed by members of the Chen family to honor their ancestors and serve as a gathering place. Later, it was used as a school and a dormitory for Chen family descendants preparing for imperial examinations. This place is absolutely worth visiting! Every decorative piece is intricately carved, from the colorful roof tiles to the delicate wooden latticework on the walls, reflecting the Chen family’s wealth and status at the time. It’s a stunning and culturally significant site. The complex consists of multiple buildings displaying antique artifacts, intricately carved ivory, and ancient artworks. Make sure to explore every corner! Entrance Fee: 10 Yuan How to Get There: Take the metro to Chen Clan Academy Station
