An exhibition on the traditional Lingnan architectural decorations recently kicked off at the Ancestral Temple of the Liu Family in Guangzhou's Tianhe district.

The temple was built by Liu Yongfu (1837-1917), a famous general in the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It is now one of the most complete relics of Liu in Guangzhou and is a cultural relic protection unit in Guangdong province.

The temple covers more than 3,000 square meters and has exquisite decorations. It is a representative of Lingnan-style family temple buildings in Guangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty. [Photo/WeChat account: tianhefabu]
