Foshan Shunde Bijiang Golden Tower | Experience 'Golden House Hidden Beauty' in Lingnan ancient charm

| Experience 'Golden House Hidden Beauty' in Lingnan ancient charm.🌻Bijiang Golden Tower (Scenic Area) is a group of Ming and Qing ancient buildings formed by surrounding gardens, mansions, study rooms, and ancestral halls, retaining dry battlements, oyster shell walls, water mill bricks, 'wok ear mountain walls' and other Lingnan features. The scenic area is famous for its beautiful and exquisite golden lacquer wood carvings in the Golden Tower. The Golden Tower, originally named Fuhe Tower, was the library of the Bijiang Su family's prestigious Zhifang. Because the daughter of Dai Hongci, the Minister of Legal Affairs in the late Qing Dynasty, married into Zhifang, this is the origin of the Golden Tower, and there is also the legend of 'Golden House Hidden Beauty'. 🍭Highlights 🍡1: Hidden Beauty Golden House Bijiang Golden Tower is actually a building from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with a history of several hundred years. It was originally the book collection pavilion of the Su family in Bijiang. In order to marry the dry daughter of Cixi, the Su family specially renovated this book collection pavilion into a 'golden house', hence the allusion of the golden house hiding beauty! The dazzling room uses a lot of real gold inlaid wood carving art It almost includes all the techniques in wood carving art, and also incorporates many plant and flower patterns of Islam, which shows a lot of cultural exchanges between Shunde and the West at that time. 🍡2: The smallest well in the world Bijiang Golden Tower is not just a building, it actually includes the entire mansion garden of the Su family, inside there is the smallest well in the world, a large number of ancient trees and artworks. 🍡3: Self-combing Women Culture Exhibition Self-combing women refer to independent women in the ancient Lingnan region who insisted on not marrying for life.
