Lonely Planet review

The Former Residence of Xu Beihong is one of Yángshuò's few cultural landmarks. Innovative Chinese artist Xu Beihong (1895-1953) is best remembered for his galloping horses that injected dynamism into previously static forms of Chinese brushwork.

Admirers of Chinese guildhall architecture can glean something from a visit to the Hongfu Palace Hotel and Le Vôtre Café, both of which occupy sections of the former Jiangxi Guildhall (Jiāngxī Huìguǎn), a notable vestige from the Qing dynasty occupying a site along Xi Jie.
