Visiting Guangzhou Chenjiaxuan: A leisure time day in July 2024, I made a special trip to Guangzhou City to visit Chenjiaxuan in Liwan District. This ancient building built in the 14th year of Qingguangxu (1888) is undoubtedly a cultural treasure worth visiting. Arriving at Chen Jiaxuan, I saw this hall full of Lingnan architectural characteristics standing, exuding a strong historical charm. Following the line of folding, I first came to the main hall. I saw the empty wooden carved large screen door on both sides. The smooth and beautiful lines were amazing. Through this door, you will see the exquisite and elegant platform, stone railings and iron cast-through flower railings use extraordinary craftsmanship. Along the tour route, I have come to the China Jinju Xiantang, where a variety of special exhibitions are held regularly, giving a glimpse of Chen's long history and culture. Through the back hall, I found that there is a photo exhibition about the century-old Chen's College, which gives a deeper understanding of the ancient academy culture. Continued, I came to Houdongzhai, where an exhibition of art works called "sparkling" is being held. The exquisite embroidery works subtly integrate Chen Jiaxuan's architectural elements into it, showing the rich cultural connotation here. Finally, I arrived in the former Dongxiang, where an exhibition on Guangzhou home is held, so that visitors can appreciate the unique architectural style of Lingnan. I was amazed by the exquisite sculptures in all corners of Chen's house. Whether it is wood carving, stone carving, brick carving or ceramic sculpture, they are superb, fully reflecting the extraordinary skills of Guangzhou craftsmen. What I am even more amazed is that none of these decoration elements are the same, so that the whole building is full of vitality and vitality. Walking in Chen's ancient corridor, I felt as if I had traveled through time and space and felt the long and heavy history of this building. It is not only a beautiful architectural gem, but also a cultural treasure trove, with rich Lingnan cultural connotation. Chen Jiaxuan is undoubtedly a cultural gem worth visiting in Guangzhou and even the entire eastern Guangdong region.
