The Copper Bay Chen Family Residence
The Copper Bay Chen Family Residence is situated in Tongwan Village, Wangying Town, Yangxin County. Constructed from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republican era, it consists of the ancestral houses of Chen Shidong, Chen Xuxue, Chen Xisong, Chen Xide, Chen Shiying, Chen Shiyuan, and others. These structures share a largely similar layout—quadrangle-style courtyards with brick-and-wood construction. This architectural complex forms a traditional kinship-based clan settlement and provides significant material evidence for studying the traditional way of life in southeastern Hubei. (Fifth Batch)
The Copper Bay Chen Family Residence is a provincial-level key cultural relics protection unit.
