Fulfilling a Childhood Dream: Walking Through Tangyue Village’s Seven Archways and China’s Only Wome

#discoverchina #anhui Visiting Tangyue Village’s Seven Memorial Archways** in Anhui was a dream come true for me—ever since I was young and saw this enchanting place in Qiong Yao’s drama. Ilonged to walk its historic paths. The village is famed for its seven magnificent stone archways,standing proudly in a row, each telling tales of loyalty, filial piety, and virtue from ancient times. What makes this place even more special is its unique Women’s Ancestral Hall,the only one of its kind in China, honoring the virtues and sacrifices of women in Confucian tradition. Strolling through the quiet lanes, surrounded by Huizhou-style white-walled houses and intricate carvings, felt like stepping back into a poetic, bygone era. Though time has weathered the stones, the legacy of Tangyue’s stories remains as captivating as ever—just like the melodrama that first drew me here.
