The first store in Jiangnan

"The No. 1 Family in Jiangnan" is also known as Zheng Yimen. The Zheng family lived here for 360 years, spanning the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties. During their heyday, more than 3,000 people ate from the same pot. Among the 173 officials who served in the government, none of them was corrupt and all were honest and upright. The Zheng family was famous for its filial piety and righteousness in managing the family. Its filial piety was commended by the court many times, and Zhu Yuanzhang personally bestowed the title of the No. 1 family in Jiangnan on them.

Jiangnan The home is characterized by its rich ancient family culture and Ming and Qing architectural combinations. ✨Zheng's Ancestral Hall: Built in the early Yuan Dynasty, it has a very simple style.

There are many ancient cypresses planted in the ancestral hall, and it is said that some of them were planted by Song Lian himself. ✨Jingbiao Archway/Nine Generations Living Together Archway Group: Each archway has its own different story and meaning, and the nine archways are very majestic. ✨Chang Qigong Temple: a place where men used to have meals in the old days. ✨Chang Sangong Temple: This was the place where women used to have meals. The temple also tells the story of how Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty was exiled here. ★【Play Suggestions】 1⃣️The paid attractions in the scenic area are Zheng's Ancestral Hall, Chang Sangong Temple, and Chang Qigong Temple. There is no entrance fee to enter the scenic area. It is recommended to buy tickets in advance to save ten yuan. (Pujiang and Yiwu locals seem to have half-price tickets) 2⃣️Personally, I feel that the cost-effectiveness of the scenic spot tickets is not high. The main attraction is the Zheng Clan Ancestral Hall. There are many tour groups and it is quite noisy. Ancient architecture and humanities enthusiasts can go for a visit.
