What's the use of ancestral temple?

Ancestral temples are places where people worship their ancestors or sages. Ancestral temples have many uses. In addition to offering sacrifices to ancestors, these spacious ancestral halls are also places for the grandchildren of various families to deal with marriage, funeral, longevity and happiness. Family members sometimes discuss important matters within the family in the ancestral hall.

In addition, the ancestral hall is also a place where the patriarch exercises clan rights. Anyone who violates clan rules will be educated and dealt with here, and even expelled from the ancestral hall, so it can also be a moral court in feudal times.
