What is the layout of quadrangles in Zhouzhuang, Zhang Ting?

Zhouzhuang, as a thousand-year-old town, has sites and remains throughout the ages, and there are still Zhang Ting, Shenting and Procedural Taoist Temple.

Zhang Ting, formerly known as Yishuntang, was built in the Ming Dynasty. In the early Qing Dynasty, Zhang was transferred to Yuyantang, commonly known as Zhang Ting. There are more than 70 houses in Zhang Ting, with an area of 1.800 square meters, carved with beams and painted columns. Beside the hall, if many rivers pass through the house. As the saying goes, "the bridge enters from the front door and the boat travels from home."

As the mansion of Yin Fujia, Zhang Ting has gone through more than 500 years of vicissitudes, and its style remains the same. Walking down the street and down the corridor, there is a courtyard in front of you, full of green eyes. There are low wings on both sides and shell windows on both sides. From the brick-carved gatehouse, solid stone pillars and exquisite carvings left over from the long years, it is still not difficult to see the past features of Zhang Ting.

The hall is spacious and bright, and under a thick court column is a rare wooden drum pier foundation, which is an obvious symbol of Ming Dynasty architecture. Ming mahogany furniture is arranged in the hall, and calligraphy and painting are hung on the wall.
