Qixia Xian Guan is located in the northwest corner of Huitong Village, Zhuhai City. It was built by Mo Yongyu, the grandson of Mo Shiyang, for the woman Zheng Miaoxia in the 1920s. After passing through the gate tower and entering the courtyard, one can see that the weeds are growing wildly and the scene is full of desolation. The western-style main building standing among the towering ancient trees and weeds is already in a dilapidated state. There are arched doors on both sides of the corridor on the upper and lower floors. The wooden staircase leading to the second floor in the house is already covered with a thick layer of dust. Looking out from the main building, the Guanyin hexagonal fountain and the generator room are only left with ruins. The three pavilions with different styles, namely Lan Ting, Mao Ting, and Dan Li Ting, are also hidden among the wild grass. These pavilions used to have double eaves and pyramidal roofs decorated with green glazed tiles, representing the architectural styles of China, India, and Japan respectively. Open hours: open all day from January 1st to December 31st.
