What you can expect

  • Visit the Qiao Family Compound, a world-famous, fully walled castle-style Qing-dynasty mansion of the prominent Qiao Clan (led by the legendary Shanxi merchant Qiao Zhiyong). It’s a masterpiece of northern Chinese residential architecture, a UNESCO-linked heritage site, and the filming location for the classic drama Jinyan Gudi (The Qiao’s Grand Courtyard).

    Explore the grand architectural complex, covering 10,642 m², with 6 main courtyards, 20 small courtyards, and 313 rooms. Admire exquisite wood carvings, brick carvings, stone carvings, and elaborate coloured paintings. Don’t miss the iconic “Dual Five-Phoenix” roof ridges and the defensive watchtower.

    Discover over 5,000 precious artefacts on display. Learn about the rise and fall of the Qiao family, Shanxi merchants’ trade routes, Qing-dynasty daily life, and film and TV memorabilia.

    See local customs, seasonal festivals, clothing, and ancient furniture collections from the Ming and Qing dynasties. Enjoy the peaceful courtyard atmosphere, especially in the early mornings or late afternoons when the soft light and fewer crowds make it perfect for photography.
