Guanzhuang Dexin Manor

Guanzhuang Dexin Manor is a national AAA-level tourist attraction.

Dexin Manor is located at the entrance of the old Guanzhuang Street. It was the residence of seven generations of the Yu family from the Fifth Ancestral Hall, totaling over 130 members. Expanded in the 56th year of the Qianlong reign (1791), the manor covers an area of approximately 3,000 square meters. The gate plaque "Dexin Manor" signifies the enduring virtue of the ancestors. Above the main gate of the estate is the word “恩旨” (Imperial Decree), and below it is the stone plaque “五世同堂” (Five Generations Under One Roof), which was bestowed by the then-county magistrate upon reporting to the imperial court that the Yu family had five generations living together in harmony. Emperor Qianlong honored them with this plaque. Three years later, they were also granted the plaque “七叶衍祥” (Seven Generations of Prosperity). Dexin Manor has five courtyards with carved beams and painted rafters, holding high historical and architectural art value, making it a rare ancient residential complex.
