Hu Xueyan's Former Residence

·Hu Xueyan was the richest man in the late Qing Dynasty, and the exquisite combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles in his former residence, the extremely luxurious Jiangnan garden, can be called the first residence of a Chinese giant businessman in the late Qing Dynasty.
·In the residential community, Zhiyuan was its main building, and at that time Hangzhou had the reputation of "a flying peak, like a miniature of a lion forest".
·The pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and bright corridors in the park are ingeniously conceived, and the rockery in the park is the largest artificial cave existing in China.
·In the former residence, there are also calligraphy stone carvings by famous artists such as Dong Qichang, Zheng Banqiao, Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming, and two rare mahogany official palanquins worth seeing.
