Located on Lantai Road, Yingzhong Subdistrict Office, Zhongxiang City, it was built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Facing south, the academy covers an area of 160 square meters and features a traditional courtyard layout. Two side rooms still remain, both largely identical in structure. Each has six bays (26 meters) in width and a depth of 12 meters. Constructed with brick and timber, the building has a single-eave hip-and-gable roof covered with gray tiles and a post-and-lintel frame. This structure provides important physical evidence for the study of local education in the Qing Dynasty. (Fifth Batch)
