A Glimpse into a Merchant's Life

#chinatravel
Shen Hall, also known as the Shen Residence, is a grand and well-preserved complex that offers a unique window into the life of a wealthy merchant from the Ming and Qing dynasties. The hall was originally the residence of Shen Wansan, a legendary and prosperous figure from the Jiangnan region. The architecture is a showcase of the opulence and exquisite taste of the time, with detailed wood, brick, and stone carvings that tell stories of the past. The sprawling complex, with its multiple courtyards, gives visitors a sense of the scale and grandeur of the family's life.
