Brief introduction of Ye's ancestral hall

Ye's Ancestral Hall is a Han ancestral hall building built in Qing Dynasty, which belongs to the place where Han people worship their ancestors and sages. Located in Xinxu Village, Shilong Town, it was built in the autumn of the New Year (A.D. 186 1) in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty, with a history of 140 years. It is a symbol of the enclosure of the new village. The ancestral hall covers an area of more than 400 square meters, which is the traditional architectural style of Lingnan ancestral hall. It has a red stone, blue brick and glazed tile roof, three wings and a conference hall. The environment is elegant and villagers often gather here. Students from the nearby Ye family are also resting and studying at Ye Ancestral Hall when they go to the exam. There are many people in history, and three of them set up flagpoles in front of Ye's ancestral hall to show off their descendants. The ancestral temple represents the excellent cultural form of the ancestral belief of the Han nationality, which has great influence and historical value.
