Zhongchuan Ancient Village in Longyan

　　Introduction   　Located in Zhongchuan Village, Xiayang Town, Yongding County. It was constructed in the winter of 1946 at a cost of 340,000 Hong Kong dollars by the renowned patriotic overseas Chinese leader Mr. Hu Wenhu, covering an area of 2,730 square meters. This is one of the three villas built by Mr. Hu during his lifetime (the other two are in Singapore and Hong Kong). The Tiger and Leopard Villa is a structure made of brick, wood, and concrete, square in shape, with two stories in the front and three in the back, exuding a majestic presence. The surrounding hills are covered with maple forests, lush green in spring and ablaze with crimson foliage in autumn, offering breathtaking views. Hu Wenhu (1882?–1954) was a famous overseas Chinese industrialist, the illustrious "King of Tiger Balm," and a media magnate. On March 11, 1991, the provincial government designated it as a third batch provincial-level cultural relics protection unit.
