Main Hall of the Wealthy Family Courtyard
The Wealthy Family Courtyard is the highest-elevation residence in Cuandixia Village. It features staggered levels and courtyards within courtyards. Though not very large, it has a refined layout. It is said that the ancestors came from Shanxi, and some ancient relics are displayed on the upper floor. Many visitors take photos in the main hall. On both sides are two very small rooms, which seem to also have a cellar. The stone walls have cat and dog holes, giving it a rather charming feel. Even modern pet lovers often build little stairways and cat doors for their feline companions.
