Baihou Ancient Town in Dapu, Meizhou, Guangdong Province is a beautiful ancient town with hidden stories. The buildings in the ancient town combine Hakka, Western and other architectural styles. The architectural style of Jiangnan Huipai can be seen in the details of some thresholds. Baihou Ancient Town is one of the most ancient towns in Lingdong, and even the whole of Guangdong. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were 5 Hanlin, 23 Jinshi and 134 Wenwu. "The same hall seven Kui", "the same list of three Jinshi", "one belly three Hanlin" is a legendary story. Baihou Ancient Town was born to the sea in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. This is the reason why a large number of Chinese and Western architectures coexist harmoniously in the ancient town. The merchant who sent the goods, the first thing to do when returning to his hometown is to build a road and build a large mansion. Hakkas are mostly immigrants from the Central Plains. The ancient style still exists, and the architectural style of the courtyard is mostly elegant. From the carvings of the windows, screens and beams, you can see the elegance of the host family. The carvings on the roof are vivid and amazing! Baihou Ancient Town is a relatively complete building with Haiyuan Building, Zhaoqing Hall and Qinanxuan. Each building has a different style. The ancient ancestral hall, the mottled old wall, the western-style arcade, the exquisite wood carvings, the wall decorations... Each building has souls, and each building is leisurely telling the past. Baihou Ancient Town is one of the roots of Hakka culture. From Tangshan to Nanyang, the story has continued!
