Dongyang Luzhai

I went to Dongyang from Jinhua. I found a light rail line in Jinhua called the Jinyi East Line, which runs from Jinhua to Yiwu. There is a Qintang Station in the middle where you can transfer to Dongyang. I heard that there is a Luzhai in Dongyang, which is an ancient mansion, so I went to have a look.
I was amazed when I arrived at Luzhai. There is such a beautiful and huge ancient house in the folk. The brick carvings on the archways and the wood carvings on the houses have a history of 600 years and are well preserved. There are no cultural and creative shops, no publicity, no fancy red lanterns. The red lanterns in other scenic spots outside are simply weak compared to the exquisite bead lanterns in Luzhai. Luzhai is so quietly hidden in the small city of Dongyang.
On the day I went, the weather was hot, and the ticket office was a very small pavilion, inconspicuous. When I entered Luzhai, there were almost no people. I saw the living room full of lanterns in the TV series "Joy of Life", as if I had entered the scene at that time. The most shocking thing was the huge bead lanterns and the wood carvings on the beams, which were so complicated and exquisite. I marveled at the superb craftsmanship of ancient craftsmen.
