Xixiashu Meicun Theater
The Xixiashu Meicun Theater was originally built during the Song Dynasty and was reconstructed in the 27th year of the Kangxi reign in the Qing Dynasty (1688). It was renovated again in the second year of the Tongzhi reign. In December 2004, it was restored to its original appearance. The theater was an auxiliary structure of the Zhenwu Temple (the predecessor of Donglin Temple). It faces north and is situated to the south, with three bays on both the upper and lower levels, and features a brick-and-wood structure. The columns rest on stone pedestals dating back to the Ming Dynasty. The theater has a convex shape and boasts a classic, traditional style.
