#Hangzhou Attraction Recommendations: Hu Xueyan's Former Residence
🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: Affluent elegance, contemporary architectural style
My Hangzhou partner took me on a tour of the former residence of Hu Xueyan, a Qing Dynasty business giant. The wealthy are truly unique. Surrounded by mountains and water, with attached rooms and pavilions, a feng shui-inspired landscape, and unique carved beams and painted buildings, it houses a guesthouse, a madam's residence, and even concubines' quarters. Imported decorations enhance the overall beauty of the residence, making it a truly worthwhile visit.
