We visited this historic site with our Chinese daughter-in-law and three-year old granddaughter who both really enjoyed the outing. For our daughter-in-law, this was an excellent opportunity to show us what China used to look like in the 80's and 90's before so much modernization took place. There is a small admission charge which provides access to a Buddhist monastery and the former residences of important local residents and officials. The historic area is only a block wide but as it extends for a good quarter mile, it makes for a full morning or afternoon.
