The Chen Clan Ancestral Hall is one Guangzhou's most historic buildings - which, in a uber-modern city - is a rare find.

About the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall

The Chen Clan Ancestral Hall was built in the 1800's as a place for the Chen clans' juniors to prep for imperial exams. Now, it's become home to the Guangdong Folk Art Museum - with 19 buildings showing off traditional Chinese architecture, art, and sculptures.

With much of the city being so new and modern, the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall is a great place to wander around and soak up some culture.
