Kang Dayong, the twelfth generation owner of the manor of the Kang family, built it in the early years of Qianlong. "Kang Baiwan" is the collective name for the Kang Yingkui family since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became famous all over the world because of the canonization of the family by Empress Dowager Cixi. During the Hongwu period of the early Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Kang family settled by the Luohe River in Kangdian Town, Gong County (now Gongyi). In order to provide food and clothing, the ancestors of the Kang family opened a small restaurant on the bank of the Luo River. As winter comes and summer comes, the small shop gradually becomes a well-known inn in Heluo area. Later, the location of the inn was called "Kangjiadian". During the period of Kang Shaojing, the sixth generation descendant of the Kang family, Kang Shaojing studied and became an official. He was first appointed as Yicheng in Weichuan (now Weishi County, Henan), and was later promoted to ambassador to Shandong Dongchang Prefecture (now Liaocheng, Shandong). Kang Shaojing held important positions in local water and land transportation, salt industry and taxation. During the Qing Dynasty, when the Qing government suppressed the White Lotus Sect, the Kang family used various means to obtain orders for military supplies related to cloth for ten years. Before that, the Kang family had monopolized the cloth market in Shaanxi. At the same time, the Kang family made money from shipbuilding and land, and was known as the "millionaire". After the continuous efforts of several generations of the Kang family, the small "Kang Family Store" has turned into a huge manor covering an area of ??more than 240 acres and containing 19 parts. Cave dwellings are built on the mountain, buildings are built on the street, and docks are set up on the river. It integrates farmers, officials and merchants. There are 33 courtyards, 53 buildings, 73 cave dwellings and more than 1,300 houses. The courtyard buildings are two typical types in western Henan. The entrance courtyard has the characteristics of both garden art and palace art. During the prosperous period, people came and went from the brick factory, lumber factory, and shipyard in the manor, and the owners of the Kang family could meet all their daily needs without leaving home. During the Qing Dynasty (AD 1790-1820), the Kang family was already extremely wealthy, with their fields covering dozens of miles. As the family wealth accumulated, the Kang family expanded the original manor and added the houses to the top of the mountain, thus forming this medieval-style castle. "Kangwanwan Manor" is a masonry castle-shaped building isolated from the outside world, with a wall surrounding the mountainside.

In 1900 during the late Qing Dynasty, the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing. Empress Dowager Cixi and Guangxu fled Beijing to Xi'an the following year, and then returned to Beijing. When passing by Kangdian Town in Gongyi, the shopkeeper of the Kang family, known as "the first businessman in Henan", "Kang Hongyou" came to help in times of need and donated one million silver taels to the Qing Dynasty. Empress Dowager Cixi said, "Unexpectedly, there are millions of families in this ravine." It was widely circulated and she was given the title of "Kang Hongyou". After the title was sealed, "Kang Wanwan" became the collective name for the "Kang family", the owner of the manor, so the Kang family's manor became Kang Wanwan Manor. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Communist Party of China renovated the manor so that it continued to have the old appearance of "Ming Dynasty Towers, Courtyards and Qing Dynasty Corridors". In the 1950s, Kangwanwan Manor was confiscated. One-third of the houses were expropriated and used as government offices, schools and post offices, and the other two-thirds were distributed to local poor farmers. 60 years later, 1/3 of the part taken over by *** is the current Kangwanwan Manor Scenic Area. The other houses of the Kang family have long been replaced by cement and ceramic tiles. In June 1963, Kangdian Manor was announced as a key cultural relic protection unit by the Henan Provincial People's Government; in February 2008, the relevant departments of Kangdian fully preserved the original layout of the manor in accordance with the "Requirements of the Kangdian Cultural Relics Protection Plan" On the basis of the project, more than 34 million yuan was spent to repair the hotel area, south courtyard, workshop area, stage, etc., and effectively control the ground subsidence of the square. In addition, the original gardens, orchards, courtyard spaces, etc. are also repaired and restored according to historical styles. In March 2009, the Dongzhai wall of Kang Wanwan's main residential area was repaired. All repairs are carried out in accordance with the principle of "repairing the old as before" and strive to show the original appearance of Kangwanwan Manor. In June 2001, Kangwanwan Manor was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relic protection unit; in 2005, Kangwanwan Manor was awarded the national AAAA (4A level) scenic spot.

Panorama Getting Started There is only one entrance to the vast complex of buildings at the Kangwan Manor. Without the guidance of someone who knows the way, it is extremely difficult for strangers to find the exit. The roads in the manor are winding and winding like a maze. Unlike most houses built by wealthy families, the architectural style of Kangjiazhuang is unique. The gate entrance of the manor is comparable to an ancient city gate, with main walls on both sides of the entrance. There is also a commanding observation deck inside the gate, modeled after the observation deck of the Great Wall in Beijing. Enter the door and go up the stairs to the observation deck. Inn Area The Inn Area is the business headquarters of the Kang family. It is close to the main residential area and the dock. It is an important core part of the Kang family's economic development for hundreds of years. One of the biggest features here is the ubiquitous plaques and couplets. These plaques fully demonstrate the cultural atmosphere of Henan merchants and also show the identity and taste of the owner. One of the couplets reads: Don't offend heaven and earth with your thoughts, leave a good example to your descendants with your words and deeds, and educate the descendants of the Kang family to pay attention to their own moral character, words and deeds. Central Area The outline of the central area of ??the manor is almost intact, including the study, kitchen, and studio. Study room and kitchen The Kang family is a large family, and the kitchen is particularly large to solve the problem of feeding a large population.

The study room is next to the kitchen, and the noisy kitchen and the peaceful study room benefit from each other. There are two small pavilions built in this area, as well as some withered and old flowers and trees. The study room is decorated simply and plainly, which is in sharp contrast to the luxuriously decorated studio and bedroom in the courtyard. The studio is next to the study. All the furniture is inlaid with sparkling gems. The east wall is hung with works by famous calligraphers of the Ming and Qing Dynasties; the west wall is hung with a Qing Dynasty official uniform and a sword that Kang Yingkui used to practice martial arts. Mourning Hall To the west of the study is the mourning hall where ancestors' tablets are placed. There are many exquisite shrines and inscriptions about the birth and death of ancestors. Each inscription takes a mason three months of work. Stone pillars and bases The bases of the stone pillars that can be seen everywhere in the manor are eye-catching. The function of stone pillars is to support the roof. This construction method protects the stone columns from moisture erosion. The bases of these hexagons are constructed from crystal stone formed over the years, and each face is engraved with floral and human figures. The most imaginative thing is a figure carved out of a hollow in the middle. It seems that the entire stone pillar is supported by them. The figure carving is lifelike and the entire structure does not lose balance. Stone pillars and bases Stone carvings Many stone carvings related to folklore stories can be seen everywhere in the compound. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, these carvings are still intact, and the fonts and outlines of the carvings are still eye-catching and beautiful. This is due to the careful selection of materials. Cave Dwellings One of the wonders of the Kang family compound is in the ordinary living area. There is a cave dwelling with calligraphy and carvings concentrated in the living area. This cave dwelling is at the westernmost end of the courtyard. There are 16 stone tablets as tall as an adult on both sides of the cave. On them are carved poems praising the owner of the manor. Different styles of Chinese calligraphy are displayed here. The main residence area, where the Kang family lives and lives, not only retains the form of cave dwellings on high loess slopes and square courtyards in the North China Plain, but also absorbs the characteristics of government buildings, gardens and military fortress buildings. Some buildings are built facing the street, but inside they are cave dwellings; some look like cave dwellings from the outside, but have floors inside, which are euphemistically called "cave buildings". Some kiln buildings have three floors above and below, and the outsides are all made of blue bricks, which shows the Kang family's strong financial resources at that time. Master's Bedroom The ceiling of the master's bedroom is colorfully painted, and the wood carvings on the doors and windows are also unique. The owner's nanmu bed is a unique and exquisite treasure. It was carved by the five most famous woodcarving craftsmen of the year and took three years to carve. Opposite the bed in the master bedroom is a wooden cart 1 meter high and 1.5 meters long. It was used to transport the women of the manor to the toilet. Because in that era, women had to bind their feet to prevent them from growing into big feet. Women with three-inch golden lotus feet could not walk long distances, and the toilet was built in a remote place in the compound, so this wooden cart became a way to pick up and drop off young ladies and girls. Their special transportation to and from the toilet and bedroom. There were also several pairs of small shoes with pointed front edges, high heels, and exquisite embroidery patterns placed in front of their beds. Dining Room In the dining room, there is a square table for 8 people on the right side. All tableware on the table: plates, dishes, bowls, etc. are octagonal. The Kang family is superstitious and believes that life and death are determined by fate and wealth is in the sky, so whenever a fortune teller comes to visit, they must use this tableware to entertain them. They believe that doing so will bring good luck and wealth to the family. If a distinguished guest comes to visit, the master of the Kang family will hold a large banquet according to Manchu and Han traditions. On such occasions, 108 pieces of tableware are often used. South Courtyard The South Courtyard was the place where the Kang family received dignitaries. The South Courtyard is a symbol of the Kang family's heyday. It is a building that displays the Kang family's taste and cultivation, and shows the family's position in dealing with agricultural, business, and official relations. A place with unique status and style of doing things. Here, the Kang family passed down their family knowledge and educated their children. Not only could they experience the master's mastery of managing the family at that time, but they could also appreciate the mystery of wealth inheritance. Architectural Features The courtyard building of Kangwanwan Manor is basically a typical two-entry courtyard in western Henan. It has some characteristics of gardens and government offices. All kinds of brick carvings, wood carvings, and stone carvings are gorgeous, elegant, and beautiful in shape. It is a feudal fortress on the Loess Plateau in North China. Representative of traditional architecture. The manor building takes the main residential area above the village as the core and spreads out to other areas below the village in the form of fans, creating group courtyards with different functions and forms.

The deep courtyard, double ridges and high eaves, hanging flower gate tower, and occasional "view blocking" method of rockeries and winding corridors are embellished to achieve the artistic effect of changing scenery with each step, giving the courtyard a deep elegance and tranquility.

It took more than 17,000 man-hours to create artistic masterpieces such as the golden nanmu wood-carved ceiling bed, Wang's stone-carved archway, and brick-carved Kanglin three monuments. Its artistic techniques make full use of openwork, round carving, relief and other artistic carving techniques, showing the superb skills and wisdom of folk craftsmen in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a treasure in the treasure house of carving art. Door pillow stones There is a set of door pillow stones in the third courtyard of the main residential area of ??Kangwanwan Manor, which is a representative work of the stone carving art of Kangwanwan Manor. This pair of door pillow stones is carved from a whole piece of bluestone in three layers. It has a novel composition and exquisite carving. The figures and animals are vivid and lifelike, and the scenes are blended and lifelike. It has been designated as a national first-class cultural relic for its fine carving craftsmanship and profound cultural connotation. It is also the grading standard for first-class stone carvings in my country and can be called a national treasure. The first layer of the door pillow stone is carved with a pair of male and female lying lions. Images of lions are very common in palaces, temples, and cemeteries. They are squatting or standing, with angry eyes, majestic, sacred, and inviolable, which is daunting. This pair of stone lions lie down on their stomachs, looking very docile and cute. The second layer is the essence of this pair of door pillow stones. It uses a protruding carving technique to carve out a set of character stories with profound educational significance. This group of patterns echoes each other and the couplets on both sides of the hanging flower gate tower. The couplet was written by Liu Yunan, the censor of the Qing Dynasty. The first couplet reads, "There is no other way to do good than to do good." The master of the Kang family knew well that "filial piety is the first of all good deeds, and filial piety is based on kindness." Therefore, the corresponding carving on the front of the door pillow stone is: A picture of "respecting the elderly and loving the young" is carved on the inside, which is a picture of "harmony between sisters-in-law", which is a metaphor for "all things prosper when a family is harmonious". The second line of the couplet "To inherit a good family, it is better to study." The master of the Kang family is well aware of the ancient saying that "everything is of inferior quality, only studying is high", so the corresponding picture of "Apprenticeship and study" was engraved. The young junior student bowed his head, bowed his hands, and was respectful. When he encountered a problem during night reading, he went to the teacher for help. The kind teacher held a lantern in one hand and stroked his beard with the other, with admiration in his eyes. The inside is engraved with a picture of "Guests and Dinner" to teach future generations to treat others with courtesy. Pictures of traditional etiquette appear on the stone. The love between father and son, sister-in-law, teacher-student relationship, and friendship are vividly portrayed by craftsmen here.

Door pillow stone The third layer of the door pillow stone is carved with a set of traditional patterns. The front is carved with "Phoenix Peony", which means "prosperity and wealth"; the inside is carved with the pictures of "Kilin Sending Children" and "Golden Rooster crowing the dawn", which means "good luck and good luck." "Officials are promoted." The chastity archway in front of the hotel area of ??the manor was built by the Kang family at the request of the Qing emperor about 100 years ago. The stone piers, stone pillars, and stone plaques are all exquisitely carved with the "Twenty-Four Pictures of Filial Piety" and "Reading of Fishing, Woodworking, and Farming" , dragons and phoenixes, rare birds and animals and other patterns. The Kangwanwan Manor archway was originally close to the Yiluo River embankment. Now it has sunk deep into the ground, leaving only the upper half on the ground. The glory of the Kang family is clearly recorded on this archway. Chastity Archway Dingzi Bed The most exquisite Dingzi bed preserved by the Kang family. It is carved from golden nanmu, and it took ten skilled craftsmen more than 1,700 working hours and nearly 5 years to complete. It adopts openwork and hollow carving techniques. The carvings of the bedposts are all in the shape of bamboo joints, which symbolizes the bamboo's peace and high joints. Engraved in the middle are the three stars of fortune, prosperity and longevity, symbolizing "the three stars shine brightly, bringing happiness, longevity and health". On the top floor there is an official riding a tall horse, with neat support teams on both sides, symbolizing the rising clouds. The second layer is engraved with spring, summer, autumn and winter, symbolizing peace in the four seasons. The third floor is engraved with stories about courtesy, class reading, and dialogue. Below it is engraved with pictures of children playing with golden roosters and unicorns giving birth to children, which means "good luck and good luck". Another wonderful thing about this bed is that it can be freely disassembled. It is composed of 37 parts. There is no nail in the whole body and it is completely riveted. It is equivalent to our current modular furniture. This bed can be said to be an outstanding representative of wood carving. Dingzi Bed Exhibition Room The exhibition room displays famous paintings and antique treasures. Among them, the plaque "Liu Yu" was selected as one of the "Chinese Famous Plaques". It is a family motto plaque for the Kang family to educate their children. It was written by Niu Xuan, a Hanlin scholar in the Qing Dynasty. One of the nanmu-topped beds took more than 17,000 man-hours to form. It was made with various carvings from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside. The top carvings were "Qilin sending son" and "Double apes dancing rope". The sixteen patterns are composed of seventeen parts, which can be dismantled and transported, and combined together for use. There is not only a place for the owner to rest, but also a place for the maid to serve the owner. It is a masterpiece among the top beds. Kangwanwan Manor provides people with historical materials to study the fortunes of the real estate class in feudal society, and also provides people with physical materials of ancient architecture. Its brick carvings, wood carvings, and stone carvings are highly favored by friends from all walks of life. The folk custom exhibition area in the manor is a true portrayal of the life of the Kang family at that time. The indoor curtains are hung high, the decoration is fresh and elegant, and the valuable furniture, antiques, calligraphy and paintings are all available, showing the noble status and elegant taste of the owner. Liuyu Plaque "Liuyu Plaque" is one of the famous Chinese plaques collected by "Kangwanwan Manor". "Liuyu Plaque" is 1.65 meters long and 0.75 meters wide. It is carved from boxwood and hangs in Kangwanwan Manor. In the main living room in a courtyard of the main manor house. Now hanging in the hall of the first courtyard of the main residence of Kang Wanwan Manor, it is a family motto for the Kang family to educate their children. It is also a concentrated expression of the Confucian Doctrine of the Mean, "Wealth cannot be revealed, and power cannot be exhausted." The "Liuyu" plaque has a unique shape, resembling an unfolded flag with a concave top and a convex bottom. The upper concave means: leaving more than the sky above is worthy of the court; the lower convex means: leaving more than the earth below is worthy of the people and descendants. If you leave an endless salary, you can return it to the court; if you leave a surplus, you can return an endless wealth to the people; if you leave a surplus, you can return endless blessings to your descendants. Don't be afraid of overflowing things. If you do too much, you will regret it. As Gao Jingyi said, if you take one step when the situation arises, you will have room for it; if you relax a little when it comes to wealth, you will have your own aftertaste. By extension, everything is true. Tanyuan old man used the word "Liuyu" to engrave his hall, and stamped it with the inscription of Liugen Taoist to show his descendants. As a title, I took some words from Mr. Xia Feng to teach his disciples, and summed them up by saying: Do you know the way of the Chang family? Just leave the rest behind. At the same time, on the first day of the lunar month of the Xin Dynasty, my foolish nephew Niu Xuan paid tribute. "

Translated into modern language, the general meaning is: "Four Inscriptions" written by Liugong Taoist Wang Boda said: "Leave some room, do not use all your skills to return to the Creator; leave some room, Do not return all your salary and salary to the court; leave some room and do not use all your property to return to the people; leave some room and do not enjoy all your blessings to pass on to future generations. "Probably God is against greed and excessive things. Because if you go too far, there will be no regrets.

Gao Jingyi, a hermit of the Ming Dynasty, once said: "When you encounter a problem, if you just step aside, you will naturally have room for change; when you encounter property, if you relax a little, you will naturally have fun." Tanyuan old man inscribed the word "Liuyu" on the plaque. Hanging it in the hall is using the "Four Inscriptions" written by Taoist Liugeng to warn his descendants. The remaining plaque contains a woodcut New Year picture of the "Three Living Gods of Wealth". Kangwanwan Manor has a woodcut New Year picture of the "Three Living Gods of Wealth" in its collection. The New Year pictures are made of rice paper, 33 centimeters long and 22 centimeters wide. They were precious gifts purchased from local people’s homes and given to Kang Wanwan Manor when the curator of the Rizhao City Museum in Shandong Province visited Kang Wanwan Manor in the 1980s. The title at the top of the New Year picture from left to right reads: "Henan has three living gods of wealth: Shen Wansan, Kang Wanwan, and Ruan Zilan." This New Year picture also provides strong evidence for the Kang Wanwan family's prominent reputation and status among the people in the history. The New Year pictures are overprinted in four colors: red, yellow, blue and black. The picture shows the three majestic living gods of wealth sitting upright. In the middle of the curtain is Shen Wansan, a wealthy man from the south of the Yangtze River in the early Ming Dynasty. He wears a yellow and a green gauze crown, and a sun and moon red embroidered robe. He sits upright and looks majestic. He holds a gold ingot in his hand. There is a cornucopia in front of him, filled with gold and silver. Jewelry, with the words "Shen Wansan" written on the left side of the head. On his left is Kang Wanwan, a wealthy man from the Ming and Qing Dynasties who was famous in Henan and well-known throughout the country. He is wearing a Qing Dynasty jade plume hat and a tight-fitting green embroidered robe with horse hoof sleeves. He is twirling his beard with his left hand and bending his right hand. He held the copper coin towards Shen Wansan and wrote "Kang Wansan" on his left side. The figure and clothing on the right side of Shen Wansan are the same as those of Kang Wanwan. On his left side is written "Ruan Zilan". There is no doubt that he is another wealthy Ruan Zilan. Surrounding the three living gods of wealth are a boy holding a golden lotus, a cornucopia, a gold ingot, a golden horse and other objects, symbolizing treasures everywhere and warehouses full of gold and silver, strengthening the effect of abundant wealth. "Three Living Gods of Wealth" Woodcut New Year Picture Related Legends It is said that one day at the end of the Ming Dynasty, a small boat went down the river from Luoyang to Kangdian Ferry in Gong County, and docked in the evening. An old man stood on the bow of the boat, looking westward and couldn't help but sigh. But when you see the setting sun with red clouds and mist, Mang Mountain rises and falls like five dragons rising to the sky, with a peak in the middle that is the golden turtle exploring the sea. It is truly a geomantic treasure. So, the old man took his family with him, abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, visited the villagers, and learned that the peak he just saw was called Wushengding, and a family named Kang lived below it. The old man defected happily and married his daughter to the Kang family. After that, the Kang family became increasingly prosperous and prosperous, eventually becoming a wealthy family. There are even rumors that the old man was originally from a wealthy family named Zhu in Luoyang. He accidentally discovered this treasure land because of his random travels, and he did not hesitate to marry a girl. The place where he lived was said to be the best, and the combination of Kang and Zhu was chaff ( Kang), the pig (Zhu) can thrive, there are pigs (Zhu), and the bran (Kang) can be used to its best advantage, it is a perfect match for heaven. The historical reality is that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng captured Luoyang and killed King Fu. Concubine Li was in trouble and was taken in by the Kang family. Later, Kang Hui, the eleventh generation descendant, married Concubine Li's daughter, and all the twelfth generation descendants of the Kang family came out of his family. The marriage between Kang and Zhu played an important role in promoting the prosperity of the Kang family.
