It is worth a visit. First, I saw Hu Xueyan's life in an exhibition hall. The house has undergone the general introduction of the owner and repair. After visiting the former residence, I returned and looked at it again to deepen my understanding. The humanistic landscape must be explained. It costs 40 yuan per person to borrow headsets, which is too expensive! A small piece of paper similar to a guide map was given when borrowing headset, and the painting was too rough, and many places were not marked.

    The compound of this size is very rare and very well protected. Rich mansion with history! It is very valuable to study the historical research of Qing Dynasty architecture, and it is a living textbook for ordinary people to understand the family life of the Redding merchants.

    The place is really beautiful with a large garden where many locals were there for professional photo shoots and even bridal photo shoots. The house has different compartments where his mother, wives and children lived. There were 2 kitchens. It was a pity that no guide was available when I was there. I couldn’t rent the audio guide either as if requires a local number. Overall, it’s still one of the better residential museums. Recommended!

    Today, I accompanied the school to visit the "Hu Xueyan Former Residence" in "Yuanbao Street". Hu Xueyan's former residence is introduced to Hu Xueyan, famous Guangyan (1823 ~ 1885). Hangzhou people. When I was a teenager, I went to Hangzhou Yiqianzhuang as a buddy, and then I ran Yuankang Qianzhuang with the support of Zhejiang Patrol Wang Youling. Also because of his efforts to help Zuo Zongxu recover Xinjiang and other battles, he was rewarded by the Chaoyan, sealed the title of the government minister, gave red tops, the Forbidden City horse riding, and admired the yellow horse. When Hu Dingsheng, in addition to operating Qianzhuang, he also operated grain, real estate, pawns, and imported and exported arms, raw silk, etc., and then founded Hu Qingyutang National Drug No., becoming a red businessman for a while. Hu Xueyan's former residence was built in the 11th year of Qing Zhouzhi (1872), and it cost a huge sum of money, covering an area of 10.8 mu, and the construction area of 5,815 square meters. Guangxu's children and grandchildren in 25 years (1899) paid their debts to the criminal department Shangshu co-organized the university academic Wenxu, and later transferred Jiang's family. The house has 13th floor, Zhiyuan, Pavilion, small bridges and flowing water, Minglang dark alley, the building is cleverly conceived. Brick carving, wood carving, stone carving, gray plastic is inexhaustible. Among them, Zhiyuan rockery is the largest artificial cave in China. Especially using a large number of purple twigs, sour branches, teak, ginkgo, sycamore, Chinese twigs and other high-end timber to build luxury houses, is a very good late Qing architecture in China, can be called the first mansion of China's giant merchants at the end of Qing Dynasty. Many rooms are closed and closed. No, no, no, I still charge tickets. The two moon doors are good for taking pictures.
