Lonely Planet review for Chen Clan Ancestral Hall

This enormous compound is an ancestral shrine, a Confucian school and a 'chamber of commerce' for the Chen clan, built in 1894 by the residents of 72 villages in Guǎngdōng; the Chen lineage is the predominant family. The complex encompasses 19 buildings of the traditional Lingnan style (southern Chinese style). All buildings contain exquisite carvings, statues and paintings, and are decorated with ornate scrollwork throughout. Take metro line 1 to Chénjiācí station.
