There are currently about more than 120 existing ancient stages in Ninghai. Many of them have painted ceilings on the stages. The more exquisite ones are represented by the three consecutive painted ceilings and stages of Chongxing Temple and the Hu Clan Ancestral Hall in Aohu. The two consecutive painted ceilings and stages represented by the Wei Clan Ancestral Hall in Xiapu and the Pan Clan Ancestral Hall in Panjia’ao are also beautiful works. There are more single painted ceiling stages, and many of them are also exquisite. Painted ceilings were mostly used in important buildings in ancient times and are also commonly seen in stages. In practical functions, they play the role of amplifying and concentrating sound, making stage art more perfect. In terms of craftsmanship, more exquisite techniques are adopted, integrating superior aesthetic conception, carving, and painting in one place, emphasizing rendering its supreme and noble state. The specific business hours and opening status are subject to the opening situation on the day.
