The Chen ancestral home




The Chen are one of the largest families in southern China (know anyone named Chen? yup). In 1894 they build a large home, which has become a museum of folk arts - mostly carvings. It's very elaborate, impressive stuff. We visited on Friday, because it was a good thing to do on a rainy day.

This was also the day Emily decided to reveal to us that should could run around the room, throw the ball, and bring us things. Delightful, and tiring.
