The second door is a masonry structure, with plastic bamboo, rolled grass and pavilions on the facade and the top of the door. The carving craft on the wooden structure is the most abundant and exquisite among the three courtyards, and it is also rare in other towns and villages in western Sichuan.

The building is very old, with many decayed columns, beams and balustrades. It is located in Qingxi Village and Sanbao Village, one kilometer north of the town. It consists of several large tombs, which are generally 2~3 mu in size. In the 195s, the people found portrait bricks, clay figurines and some funerary wares on the tombs, including large-scale bricks such as "attendants riding officials" and "chariots and horses" which were rare in China and only seen in Sichuan.
