The Wang Family Mansion, known for its inscription ‘Pi Zhen Jia Sheng’ in Yan style calligraphy, also features a couplet designed in the same style, which reads ‘Orchid Pavilion’s gathering spreads the family’s fame far and wide; Three locust trees symbolize the family’s long-lasting grace.’ Additionally, there is a calligraphy couplet by Wang Xizhi: ‘The wind rises over the river at dawn with a thousand sails; The moon fills the mountain city with a solitary flute in autumn,’ which is engraved in relief and is a quote from Zeng Guofan.
The Wang Family Mansion, established through the salt trade, became a prosperous and influential family in the region, documented in luxurious historical books and albums such as ‘Chongqing · Old City’ and ‘Famous Residences in Chongqing,’ truly earning the title ‘Great Chongqing Mansion.’ The opening hours and specific business status are subject to the day’s operations.
