Zhanglin Flower Hall

Zhanglin Flower Hall is a Zhejiang Provincial Cultural Heritage Conservation Unit.

Zhanglin Flower Hall is located in Yongchang Subdistrict, Lanxi City, and dates back to the Republican era.

The flower hall of the Xu Family Ancestral Hall in Zhanglin, Lanxi, Zhejiang, was built in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Constructed by over 300 skilled craftsmen over 42 months, it is now a provincial-level cultural heritage site. Walking through the flower hall, one can sense the imagination and creativity of ancient artisans, experience the emotional power of traditional art, and also perceive the lack in contemporary culture. The structure features three bays and five open sections, with an exquisitely carved brick facade, a front porch with a rolled shed roof, a rear section with upper floors, a blue stone fish pond in the courtyard, and a front yard.

On January 13, 2017, it was announced by the People's Government of Zhejiang Province as part of the seventh batch of Zhejiang Provincial Cultural Heritage Conservation Units.
