Ming Hall in Taiping Lane
Located at No. 6, Taiping Lane, in the urban area. Facing north and built with a brick-and-wood structure, the history of this hall is unrecorded. Based on its architectural style, it is believed to have been constructed in the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty. Currently, two sections remain, with a total floor area of approximately 189 square meters, and the structure is relatively well-preserved. The first section is single-storey, with a total width of three bays spanning 11.7 meters and a depth of 6 meters. The second section, the main hall, is a single-storey building with a flush gable roof, featuring a total width of 11 meters and a depth of 10.8 meters, with exquisite painted decorations on the wooden structures. It was designated as a cultural relic protection unit of Changshu City in June 1999.
