Tangyue Memorial Archway Group

Archways are not rare, but archway groups are rare. Archways are not only architecture, but also culture. If you don't appreciate them carefully, you won't see anything. I suggest you take a good look at the second archway, which is the highest level archway and is rare in China. It is an "imperial" archway.

The Tangyue Archway Group is located in Tangyue Village, Zhengcun Town, She County, Huangshan City. There are seven archways in total. Whether viewed from the front or the back, they are arranged in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness". Each archway has a moving story of emotional interweaving, outlining the general picture of the ethics and morality of feudal society. When Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he praised the Bao family, the owner of the archway, and called it "the unparalleled village of filial piety in the world, and the first village of embroidery in the south of the Yangtze River". The Tangyue Archway Group can be divided into Ming Archway and Qing Archway.

The three Mingfangs are Cixiaolifang, Baocan Xiaozifang and Baoxiangxian Shangshufang. The first two are of the scroll-shaped ridge style, and the last one is of the soaring column style. All three have 4 columns, 3 rooms and 3 floors.

The four Qing Dynasty archways include: the Archway for the Chastity and Filial Piety of Bao Wenling’s Wife, the Archway for the Charity and Charity of Bao Laifang, the Archway for the Chastity and Filial Piety of Bao Wenyuan’s Wife, and the Archway for the Filial Son Bao Fengchang. All four archways are of the soaring column type with similar structures, but the carvings are more exquisite than those of the Ming Dynasty archways.

"Tangyue Archway Group" - located in the western suburbs of She County, Huizhou, it is a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction and a key cultural relic protection unit. It is unprecedented and unparalleled in the world. It is the only family in the world with seven archways.

The ticket price for Tangyue Archway and Bao Family Garden is less than 100 yuan. The attraction is the archway group. The cost performance is not high. Just fly a drone at the door.

The best view is when the rape flowers are in bloom. At least the brilliant yellow can cover up the not-so-beautiful stories behind the archways.

Tangyue Village is located in Zhengcun Town, She County. The origin of the village name can be traced back to the first collection of poems in China, The Book of Songs: Gan Tang. Taibo implemented the decrees of King Wen and worked under a Gan Tang tree among the people, which won the hearts of the people. Later, the people deliberately protected the Gan Tang tree, making it lush and shady. Later generations used the word "Tangyin" to refer to "virtuous governance", and the "yue" in Tangyue refers to the shade of the tree.

Tangyue Village is like most villages in She County, with white walls, black tiles and winding paths. It is most famous for the seven memorial archways at the entrance of the village, which are connected by a stone road and become an unforgettable scenery. Such space creation, coupled with the uneven horse head walls in the distance, interweaves into the graceful music of Tangyue Village. The seven memorial archways were not built at the same time, but were built by emperors from Ming to Qing dynasties. The evolution of time has allowed Tangyue Village to accumulate and grow. At the end of the seven-layer gate, there are three grand ancestral halls, which have become the annotation of our traditional etiquette and have also added a brilliant climax to the sequence of seven memorial archways.

The Tangyue Archway Group is still worth seeing, of course you need a guide, otherwise you won't be able to see anything. This place and the Bao Family Garden are package tickets, and the Bao Family Garden is now a bonsai garden. The tour guide said that the so-called archway is a certificate of honor issued by the emperor. This is a branch of the Chinese Bao family. The archways here are of course the certificates of honor issued by the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties to his family. The certificates of honor must be placed at the entrance of the village for everyone to see. It is said to be issued by the emperor, but there are still differences here. Some are made by the emperor, some are made by imperial decree, and some are made by imperial decree. The difference is whether the emperor paid for it or raised money to build it.

The seven archways each have their own story and are worth a visit.

This attraction is really disappointing. When I was a kid, I watched a Qiong Yao drama and there was a memorial archway plot. I always wished to come here once. The 90 yuan ticket is really a rip-off. The Bao Family Garden is even more useless. I suggest that the government change this attraction to free admission. It can also educate people on patriotism and learn about the loyalty, filial piety and righteousness of the ancients.

Logically speaking, this kind of scenery should be free~~

100 yuan is a bit too expensive～～～

The photos taken are beautiful mainly because of the good weather~~

It is more interesting to know the story of each archway~~

Tangyue Village is located in Zhengcun Town, She County. The Tangyue Archway Group consists of seven archways, three from the Ming Dynasty and four from the Qing Dynasty. Almost all of them are built with stone. It is a masterpiece that embodies the archway architectural art of the Ming and Qing Dynasties and has been listed as a national key cultural relic protection unit.

The rapeseed fields are shaded by the archways that are neatly arranged from near to far, which is the most classic scene of Tangyue Archway.

It is said that the scenic spot is very tasteless, but you should go and see it when you come. The ticket price of 100 yuan includes a super tasteless attraction, Bao Family Garden. The archways were built during the Qianlong period to commend women for their chastity and fathers for their filial piety, a product of the feudal patriarchal society. The archway group under the clear sky is very shocking.

I'm sorry for the ticket price. It's advertised as a 5A scenic spot, but there aren't many ancient buildings, and the archways are not well preserved. There are stories and feelings here, but many things have been destroyed. There are only portraits of ancestors painted by modern people in the ancestral hall, which don't leave a deep impression.

There is no sightseeing value at all. It is the worst place I have ever been to. There are 7 memorial archways and two ancestral halls on the road leading into the village. The ticket is 90 yuan. The scenic spot is very small and can be seen at one glance. It can be visited slowly in half an hour. You can still take a look at the ancestral hall.

In the afternoon, we went to Paifang Village. This village was very remarkable in ancient times, with 7 archways built, each of which recorded an unusual story.

Single archways are often seen, but a group of 7 archways is unique in China. 5A scenic spot, golden signboard, this is a money-printing machine! Weeping willows, ponds, green lotus, and frog sounds are like spring water. 3 ancient village buildings: ancestral hall, male hall, and female hall. This Qingyi Hall is a female hall, which is rare in China. It is also the silent support of many women behind the prosperity of ancient Huizhou. From the location of Congbuting, you can see the panoramic view of the archways behind.

Place names in Huizhou are generally poetic. The origin of Tangyue Village can be traced back to the first collection of poems, The Book of Songs: Gan Tang. Taibo implemented King Wen's decrees and worked under a Gan Tang tree among the people, which won the hearts of the people. Later, the people deliberately protected the Gan Tang tree, making it lush and full of shade. Later generations used the word "Tangyin" to refer to "virtuous politics". The "yue" in Tangyue refers to the shade of the tree. Tangyue Village is like other Huizhou villages, with black tiles and white walls and winding paths. I learned about the Tangyue Memorial Archway from the movie "The Warlords". The seven memorial archways at the entrance of the village are connected by a stone road, which has become an unforgettable scenery.

The Tangyue memorial arches are arranged in the order of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness. They were built in the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty respectively, and all of them honor the "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" of the people of Tangyue. Next to the memorial arches, there are two temples for men and women, which are large-scale buildings with exquisite brick, wood and stone carvings. In feudal society, in order to commend officials who have made "outstanding contributions" in various aspects such as "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" and their "outstanding contributions" to the prosperity of the court, the government of the time often approved the construction of "merit memorial arches" at the head of the village where these people were born, so as to call on people to serve the court as an example. Each memorial arch has a moving story intertwined with emotions. When Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he greatly praised the owner of the memorial arch, the Bao family, and called it "the unparalleled village of filial piety in the world, and the first village of embroidery in the south of the Yangtze River."

The memorial arch is a medal awarded by history to Huizhou. Throughout history, Huizhou has produced many outstanding people, including Li Tinggui, Zhu Xi, Bi Sheng, Hu Kaiwen, Wang Maoyin, Dai Zhen, Hu Shi, Tao Xingzhi, Huang Binhong and many other outstanding figures. In She County alone, there were 542 Jinshi and 1531 Juren in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The "father and son Shangshu" and "fellow Hanlin" were well-known in the village, and "three consecutive imperial examinations and four Hanlins in ten miles" became a good story. Especially in this hometown of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, women were deeply harmed by the feudal concept of "chastity and loyalty", and a large number of chaste women and heroic women represented by Miss Wang San in "The Scholars" appeared. In the old days, in order to honor these "excellent" figures of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness", a large number of memorial arches were built in various parts of Huizhou. Although these historical relics have been destroyed many times, more than 100 of them are still well preserved.

The Tangyue Archway Group is a representative work of architectural art in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The architectural style is integrated. Although the time span is as long as hundreds of years, it is still in one go. The Tangyue Archway has changed the characteristics of the previous wooden structure. Almost all of it is made of stone, and the main material is the "Shexian Blue" stone with high quality. This bluestone archway is solid, tall and straight, magnificent and magnificent, and majestic.

The Tangyue Archway Group mainly includes three ancestral halls and seven archways. Two of the ancestral halls are the Dunben Hall of Bao’s Family, commonly known as the male ancestral hall. The other is the Bi Temple of Bao’s Family, also known as Qingyi Hall, commonly known as the female ancestral hall. The female ancestral hall breaks the old rule that “women are not allowed to enter ancestral halls” and is rare in China.

The Tangyue memorial archways are: Bao Can’s Filial Piety Archway - Cixiaoli Archway - Wang’s Chastity Archway for Bao Wenling’s Wife - Congbuting - Charity Archway - Wu’s Chastity Archway for Bao Wenyuan’s Second Wife - Bao Fengchang’s Filial Son Archway - Bao Xiangxian’s Shangshu Archway.

Tangyue Memorial Archway is no more than 10 kilometers away from She County, and can be reached in 15 minutes by car. It is an ordinary road with no problem in road conditions. You can take a bus directly to Tangyue Memorial Archway in She County.

Tangyue Memorial Archway and Bao Family Garden are national AAAAA scenic spots and national key cultural relics protection units. The memorial archway group in Tangyue Village is the most famous scenic spot, with seven memorial archways arranged in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, righteousness, filial piety and loyalty".

The group of memorial archways in Tangyue Village is one of the most famous scenic spots in She County. It is a family monument erected by a Huizhou merchant family over 400 years. The seven memorial archways are arranged according to "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, righteousness, filial piety and loyalty". Each archway has a touching story of intertwined emotions. It is spectacular, and its structure and exquisite stone carvings are also worth careful appreciation.

The group of memorial archways in Tangyue Village is one of the most famous scenic spots in She County, and the ticket price of 105 is indeed not worth it.

Each archway has its own history, and you can listen to the locals tell it.

Tangyue Village, which belongs to She County, Huangshan City, Anhui Province, is famous for its memorial archway group. The memorial archway group consists of 7 memorial archways, which are arranged in the order of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness. They were built in the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty respectively, and they all honor the "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" of the people of Tangyue. Next to the memorial archway group, there are two ancestral temples for men and women. The buildings are large-scale, and the brick, wood and stone carvings are particularly exquisite. They have been restored to their original state in recent years. The China Memorial Archway Museum is also being planned here. Tangyue Village is a village of the Bao family, and they have made a living by doing business for generations.

The most prominent family in the village is Bao, whose origin can be traced back to Bao Hong, the prefect of Xin'an during the Xianhe period of the Jin Dynasty (326-335).

Like the Bao Family Garden, it is monotonous, with only a few ancient archways.

The Tangyue Memorial Archway Group, located on the East Avenue of Tangyue Village, Zhengcun Town, She County, Anhui Province, is a representative work of ancient Huizhou architectural art during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Tangyue Memorial Archway Group not only reflects the general outline of the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism of Hui culture, "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness", but also includes the extremely rich humanistic history of "people-oriented". Each memorial archway has a moving story of emotional interweaving. You must come here to listen to the stories told to you by the locals.

The 7 memorial archways in the fields are very beautiful, and will be even more beautiful in the spring when the rape flowers are in bloom. The ancient village and the ancient ancestral hall are full of history.

Located on the East Avenue of Tangyue Village, Zhengcun Town, She County. There are seven in total, three built in the Ming Dynasty and four built in the Qing Dynasty. When Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he praised Tangyue Village as "the most filial village in the world, and the most beautiful village in the south of the Yangtze River".

The Tangyue Memorial Archway Group not only reflects the general outline of the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism of Huizhou culture, "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness", but also includes the extremely rich humanistic history of "people-oriented". It is also an important witness to the more than 300 years of Huizhou merchants in the business world. Each memorial archway has a moving story of intertwined emotions. When Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he praised the Bao family, the owner of the memorial archway, and called it "the unparalleled village of filial piety in the world, and the first village of embroidery in the south of the Yangtze River."

It has a great visual impact, and the old items are still good.

The natural scenery is quite ordinary, but the scale of the archway is acceptable. If you like to see ancient monuments and buildings, you can go and have a look. It takes about an hour to walk around.

It is not the best season for rapeseed flowers yet. If it is combined with the rapeseed flowers and the archway, it will definitely be very beautiful.

It is a national key cultural relic protection unit.

The two attractions are bundled for 85, which is a very bad price. The garden is not worth seeing, it is very ordinary and was expanded by 2000, unless you like bonsai. There is a 6 million one in the greenhouse. You don't need to buy a ticket for the archway, because there are many roads nearby that can lead to it. There is a big road next to it, and villagers are walking. I saw a car from other places and was charged 10 yuan for parking outside. Not a good impression!

After passing through the archway group, there is the best viewing platform in front of the Bao family ancestral tomb in Longshan. Overall, I was a little disappointed. Please ask a guide for the cultural attractions, otherwise you will visit them quickly and without feeling.

The seven-linked memorial archway group in Tangyue not only reflects the general outline of the ethics of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" of the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism of Hui culture, but also includes the extremely rich humanistic history of "people-oriented". It is also an important witness to the more than 300 years of Hui merchants' business world. Each memorial archway has a moving story with intertwined emotions. There are many wild guides when visiting, who will cling to you and you can't get rid of them.

A quiet, peaceful and harmonious place. You need to listen to stories here. Feel the profound culture and experience the history here.

Ancient memorial archways, ancient dwellings and ancient ancestral halls are the "three wonders of Huizhou". Although the memorial archways in the Tangyue Memorial Archway Group are not the most exquisite, the 7 stone memorial archways gathered together are unique. Among them, 3 are from the Ming Dynasty and 4 are from the Qing Dynasty. The construction time is 400 years apart. They are arranged in order of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness, and are divided into 4 different levels from low to high: imperially built, imperial decree, honor and imperially built. Each memorial archway has a moving story, telling the ancient ethics and morality.

Tangyue Archway Group and Bao Family Garden are sold together, just like Shaolin Temple is sold together with Sanhuangzhai. Even if you don't go, you have to buy a full-price ticket. Although it sounds a bit tricky, it is still worth a visit. You can visit Bao Family Garden first or Tangyue Archway Group first. After visiting one, just go to the next one. It's just that Bao Family Garden is the second to last stop and Tangyue Archway Group is the terminal. It is recommended to visit Bao Family Garden first and then go to Tangyue Archway Group, so that you can take the bus at the terminal to go back after watching it to avoid no seats. Tangyue Archway Group is also famous for the 7 archways in a row, representing different people and things. I also occasionally take the tour guide, so I didn't hear it very completely. Anyway, it's about a family. There is also the only female ancestral temple in the world. These two are the characteristics of Tangyue Archway Group, but in fact, it's just a house and an archway. For ordinary tourists, they can't see anything. However, it is more impressive to watch a row of memorial archways from a distance, and there is a viewing platform at the innermost part. In front of the female temple is the residential area of the Tangyue memorial archway group, which should not be much to see. The whole place is very small, and it is basically over. When you come out, there is a small street, all selling specialties and so on, and there are not many people.

Tangyue is the settlement of the Bao family. The family moved here and settled during the Jianyan period of the Southern Song Dynasty, and has lived here for more than 800 years. The stone archways with "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" as the core are arranged from both ends to the middle in a semi-arc shape. From west to east, they are Bao Can Xiaoxing Archway, Cixiaoli Archway, Wang Shi Chastity Archway for Bao Wenling's Wife, Leshanhaoshi Archway, Bao Wenyuan's Wife Chastity Archway, Bao Fengchang Filial Son Archway, and Bao Xiangxian Shangshu Archway. The seven archways are solemn and majestic, standing in a line.

Tangyue Village, which belongs to She County, Huangshan City, Anhui Province, is an ancient cultural town with a long history. It is famous for its memorial archway group. There are seven memorial archways in Tangyue, three of which were built in the Ming Dynasty and four in the Qing Dynasty. Whether viewed from the front or the back, they are in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness". Each memorial archway has a moving story with emotional interweaving, honoring the "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness" of the people of Tangyue. Next to the memorial archway group, there are two temples for men and women. The buildings are large-scale and the brick, wood, and stone carvings are particularly exquisite. The China Memorial Archway Museum is also being planned here.

Located in She County, Huangshan City, Anhui Province, it is collectively called the Ancient Huizhou Cultural Tourism Zone with Huizhou Ancient City, Chengkan, Tangmo, etc., and together they have become 5A-level scenic spots. Of course, the tickets are not cheap. The Tangyue Archway Group and Bao Family Garden cost a total of 100 yuan. The Tangyue Archway Group is a tour with seven consecutive archways as the main line. Each of the seven archways has its own origin. In spring, a field of rapeseed flowers in front of the archway and the archway group form a beautiful scenery, which attracts many shots. It is worth a visit.

The Tangyue Archway Group is located in She County, more than 30 kilometers away from the city, not far from Tangmo Village... Just like in the photos, there are really only archways and two ancestral halls... It looks pretty good in the season when the rape flowers bloom... The tickets are not cheap, and include the Bao Family Garden... If you are interested, you can go and have a look and listen to the stories behind each archway... ps not every archway is a chastity archway!

The 100 yuan ticket is not worth it, but the student ticket is okay.

The view is nice, but there seems to be nothing else! But the archway is really nice, the scenery is also nice, as for the characteristics and services... it seems nothing.

The weather was not "good" when I went there, and it was drizzling, but this just fits my aesthetic of Huizhou. I heard that on rainy days, pink walls and black tiles are more suitable~

The Tangyue Memorial Archway Group is indeed spectacular, but the Men's and Women's Temples are no less impressive, both rigorous and exquisite. In addition, some of the houses in the village are also very good.

There were not many people that day, so I was the only one walking slowly in the rain, admiring the Hui-style buildings on both sides. The tiles, walls and ground were all wetted by the raindrops, which made them look even more tranquil and beautiful.

The bluestone archway under the setting sun is tall, straight, magnificent and gorgeous. The ancient ancestral halls, ancient houses, ancient pavilions, farmlands, mountains and rivers, dusk, and villagers - what people today get a glimpse of is history, humanities, and architectural art, but what the ancients hundreds of years ago upheld was loyalty, filial piety, chastity, righteousness, and ethics and morality. Especially in this hometown of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, women were harmed by the feudal "chastity" ideology, and men left the village. The village built high walls to protect the bodies and minds of Huizhou women and shield them from the wind and rain of the outside world. On the ancient bluestone road, one woman after another sent off her fathers, brothers, husbands, and sons, and waited for decades. Those who were welcomed back decades later either returned home in glory or were buried in a foreign land with no news.

Although the actual journey is not long, it does not affect the momentum of the scenic spot. It is better to see the specific stories of each archway.

It is worth seeing, there are 7 memorial archways and a pavilion, which commend loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness, as well as the Bao family's old house, five generations living under one roof and other residential houses.

If you go to She County, you must visit the Tangyue Archway Group. The archway group is located among the farmlands. Villagers nearby are herding cattle from time to time, and the Hui-style houses in the distance are particularly beautiful under the blue sky.

First of all, let's talk about the tickets. There are group-purchased tickets online for the archway + Bao Family Garden for 80 yuan in total. It's actually pretty good and worth seeing. When I was a child, I watched Qiong Yao's romantic dramas, and I remember there was a scene of this archway group. It was very beautiful, but I didn't know where it was. Later I learned that it was in She County at the foot of Huangshan Mountain, 20 minutes' drive from the county seat. Entering the scenic area is the Women's Temple, which is definitely a product of the ancient male superiority and female inferiority. Then along the bluestone road, there are seven archways standing all the way, which is very spectacular and breathtaking. At dusk, the setting sun hitting the archway group should be a different style.

The main purpose of going to Tangyue is to see the Tangyue Archway Group. Fortunately, I went there in the season when rape flowers were in full bloom. The golden color of the rape fields on both sides of the Tangyue Archway Group set off the archway, making it look more historical. The archway under the sunset feels a bit desolate and mournful. There are a total of seven archways in Tangyue Archway, namely: Bao Can Xiaoxing Archway, Cixiaoli Archway, Wang's Filial Piety Archway for Bao Wenling's Wife, Leshanhaoshi Archway, Bao Wenyuan's Successor Wu's Filial Piety Archway, Bao Fengchang's Filial Son Archway, and Bao Xiangxian's Shangshu Archway. The entire archway group was set up as a scenic spot and charged a fee. It was well managed and very clean. The security uncle also gave us a detailed introduction to the history of the archway, and there was no need to hire a tour guide. I give a thumbs up to the security uncle.

At dusk, the setting sun hitting the archway group should be a different style.

Three of the seven memorial archways are from the Ming Dynasty, and four are from the Qing Dynasty. They are easy to distinguish. The pillars of the Ming Dynasty memorial archways have been replaced, and the color difference is obvious. The highest level is the second one after entering the main gate of the scenic area: Cixiaoli Archway. Whether viewed from the front or from the back, the seven memorial archways are arranged in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness". Without aerial photography, only six memorial archways on flat ground can be photographed, and Bao Can Xiaoxing Archway cannot be photographed.

The Tangyue Archway Group is a row of archways, and the main content of the archways is a series of stories, all of which are Huizhou spirit and Huizhou stories. I find them quite interesting. The viewing value is average, but the story is quite strong.

It's very nice. I need to explain it. The Bao's Ancestral Hall is also good.

It should be the most complete and largest group of archways in China. There are a total of 7 archways, recording the rise and fall of the Bao family.

In front of the Bao Family Branch Temple, there are seven magnificent and rare memorial archways standing in a semi-arc from west to east. Three were built in the Ming Dynasty and four were built in the Qing Dynasty. The memorial archways are arranged from south to north in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, righteousness, chastity, filial piety, and loyalty", namely: Bao Can Xiaoxing Archway, Cixiaoli Archway, Wang Shi Chastity Archway for Bao Wenling's Wife, Leshanhaoshi Archway, Bao Wenyuan's Wife Chastity Archway, Bao Fengchang Filial Son Archway, and Bao Xiangxian Shangshu Archway. The seven memorial archways are solemn and majestic, connected in a line, and stand in a line. The memorial archway group is mainly made of "Shexian Blue" stone with high quality, making it solid, upright, magnificent and magnificent.

Looking at the quaint and elegant memorial archway standing at the head of the field village, history and reality intersect, seemingly silently telling the "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness" of the people of Tangyue. This is actually the spirit that we Chinese rely on to survive, and it is what is missing in our era. What should a society without faith do······

The entrance of the scenic spot is well planned, with sufficient parking spaces and a small commercial street. You can eat here. The price is not too expensive, but the taste is average. The Tangyue Archway Group comes with a tour guide. There are 7 archways in the Tangyue Archway Group, each with its own story. There are also male and female ancestral halls, which enshrine the ancestors respectively. The ancestral halls are typical Hui-style buildings, with white walls and gray tiles, thick beams and thin columns, and camphor wood is used to prevent mosquitoes. The high walls have no windows and rely on the skylight for lighting. As soon as you enter the house, you will feel that it is particularly tall and wide. I always feel that it must be special on rainy days. Although I thought it was interesting when I saw it for the first time, the ticket price is also very expensive at 100 yuan, which I think is a bit low in cost performance

The seven memorial archways from the Ming and Qing dynasties are well preserved and worth seeing. The female ancestral hall next to the memorial archways is also rare.

The round trip from Tunxi to Tangyue is 28 yuan + 12 yuan. The tickets are expensive, there is no special feature, and the buildings along the way are similar. You can see them from afar when you get there by car. You don’t have to see anything else. It’s just to satisfy the vanity of having visited this place. The fields are still beautiful in winter.

When the five warriors first visited Huangshan, they visited all the scenic spots and saw the archway group. I was shocked by the row of magnificent archways. Not only were there literati and heroic women praised on them, but also because the seven archways were arranged in an arc, it is said that the Feng Shui master used this as a bow to draw these seven arrows to protect the villagers. It felt really good, someone was protecting them, and the villagers felt at ease with the will of God!

Each memorial archway has words and decorations, and is exquisitely designed and magnificent, especially the ones bestowed by the emperor. The architecture in the village has the same Hui style as Xidi and Hongcun. Take a closer look and listen to the long history.

As for the archway group, I found that it was not what I imagined after seeing it. It is located in a village, and many villagers live in it. Each archway has its own history. It is also quite spectacular at a glance. After the tour guide finished the explanation, he also took us to see the Hui style architecture.

The Tangyue Archway Group should be considered a cultural relic and is well worth seeing. Many years ago, when I saw this scene in a film or TV series, I thought: I must go and see it if I have the chance, and now I have achieved my wish.

It is a very short and small scenic spot. This group of archways is very rare in China, so it is worth a careful look. But to be honest, it is too short to see a few archways on a small field road. Many people will think it is not cost-effective to see them. Since it is bundled with Bao's Garden for 100 yuan (the price in previous years), I think it is not cost-effective to just see the archways.

Take the local bus and tell the conductor that you want to go to Tangyue Archway. They will enthusiastically drop you off at the branch road leading to the archway. Then you can transfer to bus No. 4 from the intersection to get to Tangyue Archway. You will pass by Bao Family Garden on the way. Of course, you can also walk from the branch road, but it will take about half an hour. The Tangyue Archway Group is more important to me because a scene of Dream of Red Mansions was filmed here. Haha

The Tangyue Memorial Archway Group is located on the main road of Tangyue Village, more than 10 li west of She County.

The eight stories told by the tour guide were very interesting. The collision of modern words and ancient stories produced unique sparks of thought and left a deep impression.

The Tangyue Archway Group is a representative work of architectural art in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The architectural style is seamless. Although the time span is as long as hundreds of years, it is completed in one go. The archway is mainly used to pass on the ethics of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness.

There are seven memorial archways, each with a story. If you want to know the story, you must hire a tour guide, but it costs 20 yuan to hire a tour guide. Of course, if you don't hire one, you can either listen for free (don't be too obvious, otherwise some people will be unhappy), or check it online. If you want to say that there are other things to see besides the memorial archways, I'm sorry, there is only an ancestral hall besides these seven memorial archways. There is nothing else.

The Tangyue Archway Group is not a big scenic area, including three ancestral halls (only two are open), a pavilion, and seven archways. The regular ticket price is 100 yuan, and Master Cheng bought it for us for 85 yuan, and 50 yuan for children without discount. Most people in Tangyue Village have the surname "Bao". I thought that after seeing the ancestral halls in Hongcun and Chengkan, there would not be too many surprises here, but the brick carvings on both sides of the foyer really shocked us.

It is colorful, elegant and delicate, soft but firm, exquisite and exquisite. No wonder it is called "the best brick carving in Huizhou".

I entered the village at 9.00 in the morning and came out at 10.40.

I came here to see the archway once a few years ago. It was raining, so I had to rush through it. So I left with a thought in my mind that I would definitely come again if I had the chance!

The entrance to the village. So impressive

On the corridor at the east end of Tangyue Village, there are seven memorial archways standing in an orderly manner. They rise from the ground, are simple and elegant, and are magnificent. They naturally form a memorial archway group, which makes visitors marvel.

From here you can go in and see the seven archways.

The archways are all made of bluestone, which requires neither nails nor rivets. The stones are cleverly combined together, and can stand for thousands of years without collapsing or being defeated. Each one reaches straight into the sky.

The memorial archways are lined up along the edge of the village. You can see the columns and the text on them. They are arranged in the order of "loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness". They witness the rise and fall of this village over the past few hundred years. Most families run businesses that sell paper, ink, brushes and inkstones. The prices are much higher than a few years ago.

She County in southern Anhui has been known as the "hometown of memorial archways" since ancient times. According to historical records, She County has built more than 250 memorial archways throughout the ages, and 82 are still in existence. Sometimes when you pass by an unknown small village, you will see a memorial archway in the mud pond at the entrance of the village. Just look at the mottled bluestone and you will know how many years it has gone through! I remember a memorial archway because of the words "be kind and generous".

In the 25th year of the reign of Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty (1821), it is said that when Bao Laifang, the aristocratic Bao family, wanted to ask the emperor for permission to build a "Yi" archway to honor his ancestors, so he donated 100,000 dan of grain, 30,000 taels of silver, built 800 miles of river embankments, and distributed military pay to three provinces. This move was approved by the court. As a result, there was another Yi archway at the head of Tangyue Village, which means "good deeds and charity".



At the entrance of the archway, local farmers sell home-picked strawberries for 5 yuan a bowl, less than a pound, and very sweet. You can buy a bowl and eat it while walking, you don’t need to wash it, and you won’t get an upset stomach after eating it. It’s really pollution-free strawberries.

After leaving the memorial archway, it was already past 12 o'clock, so we found a farmhouse nearby to have lunch. They said they served wild game and vegetables, and the price was not cheap, costing 200 yuan.

The Tangyue Archway Group consists of seven archways with the "Yi" archway as the center. They are arranged from both ends to the middle in the order of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness, one after another across the stone road in the countryside.

Have you ever watched "Smoke Over the Tower"? Do you remember the seven archways that Kenny Bee and Liu Xuehua walked through?

Do you remember the song: There are seven ancient doors, locking up seven hundred years of youth?

Seven hundred different stories left seventy thousand tears...

My first impression of the archway came from this film

Entering the archway scenic area, in addition to 7 consecutive archways, there are also 2 ancestral halls.

Archway Group

It is about 500 meters away from Bao Family Garden, but this is a package ticket. I personally feel that it is a bit of a scam.

If you like garden design and bonsai art, you can go to Bao Family Garden.

The seven memorial archways in the village are arranged in groups, simple and elegant.

Whether looking from the front or the back, the order is "loyalty, filial piety, chastity, and righteousness".

Each archway has a touching story intertwined with emotions.
