One of the six brick carvings is the image of "Liu Qing taming the fiery steed" which shows a senior general named Liu Qing tamed a fiery steel to prevent his country from a war led by a nearby country. The figures on it are so lively that every person has a distinguished facial expression and pose. Later Chen Clan Ancestral Hall was changed into the Chen Clans Industry College, and then middle schools afterward. At modern times, the academy functions as a folk art museum of Guangdong. During the time of building, one of the 48 Chen clans ranked the third in the highest level of imperial examination which brought his family good reputation and wealth. This encouraged the Chen clans to invest more than before for the project.

The entrance is a very short walk from the exit of the subway station of the same name. Once inside, it is as if youve walked into a scene from a Chinese movie set in the 1800s. The furnishings and architecture is consistent with that of ancient China and the artwork displayed also made me feel like I had stepped back in time. There is a stone gazebo facing the hall, which is surrounded by stone balustrades.

This academy adopted all of the best materials, which took a large amount of money. Once stepping into the hall, every part of the academy tells you a story about a big family, even about the past of Guangzhou. The Gathering Hall was for meeting and worship of the Chen clans and now it is an ancestral hall.

In the Lingnan Folk Crafts Exhibition Hall, President Mattarella took time to appreciate a large wood carving titled "100 Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix." He leaned in closely to examine the piece and even inquired about its historical story. When he learned that the phoenix symbolizes auspiciousness and harmony, he nodded in agreement. Currently it is a Chinese folk art museum, and one of Guangzhou's best tourist highlights. The exhibits include a variety of folk arts and crafts, as well as interesting old maps and family trees, making the visit worth it for both the architecture and the exhibit. The building features intricate wood carvings inside, and polished wooden rafters.

This temple is a symmetric complex consisting of 19 buildings with nine halls and six courtyards.

The scenes depict stories from Chinese literature and folklore and include real and mythical animals. The whole complex now houses the Guangdong Folk Art Museum showing Chinese handicrafts, and is remarkably well-preserved.
