Separated by a small, exquisite, colorful garden, it is the house, hall and guest house of Chang Bingru, a famous Confucian businessman.
There are two interesting scenic spots in Wangchuan Villa-Tikhtangke Siheyuan. One is the screen wall of deer map, which not only forms a traditional auspicious picture of deer and crane in the same spring with the photo wall in front of the door, but also has the meaning of welcoming guests to the door. Cao Cao once wrote a poem: Yo Yo Luming Literature, Wild Apple, I have hospitality, I play drums, blowing sheng. It can be seen that deer, a sharp beast, has been welcoming guests since ancient times. Otherwise, why is the most advanced welcome banquet called the Ming Road Banquet? Passing through the row of buildings, you will definitely ask: This main hall is no different from other places. Why is it also a scenic spot worth seeing? Perhaps, now I tell you that Shanxi has the earliest heating equipment, and you can't find it at once. Well, let me tell you, the secret is in the corner beside the hall. Yes, this is a furnace pit, and the furnace is underground. Under the floor tiles of the main hall, a labyrinth of fire channels brings hot air into the hall. In the severe winter, it will make the room warm as spring, and of course it will also make friends and relatives who come to visit feel at home. If you are a guest, follow me through this indoor secret door, and you will find yourself in the master's yard. This is the topic and the hall. The function of this secret door is that when guests meet and entertain their hosts, they don't have to go out of the gate to make a big turn, and it deepens the feeling of home.
Like Guanghetang next door, Tihetang is a two-story courtyard with five arches in the middle. These two courtyards, like the adjacent Guihe Hall, have completely preserved the exquisite paintings of the Qing Dynasty.
Han brocade painting: The painting of Changjia Manor belongs to the unique form of Han brocade painting in Jinzhong area. This form originated in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and was related to Shanxi merchants. According to the old man, a big family made a fortune in business. After building a building, he asked the painter to draw a figure on a building, not exactly the same. Painters tried their best to draw colorful paintings for this big businessman, but when drawing his purlin, they found that all available methods were used, and there was no different method. This job is a big problem. At this time, a middle-aged painter, who usually doesn't like to talk, got inspiration from the decorative patterns of stone carvings in the Han Dynasty collected by the master. He sketched all night and revised it repeatedly, and finally designed an unprecedented, novel and unique pattern, which not only attracted high praise from painters, but also was loved by house owners. Because this pattern is inspired by the stone carving patterns in the Han Dynasty, everyone calls it a beautiful pattern developed from the Han Dynasty ornamentation of Han brocade. This form, soon spread among peers, and has been improved and developed day by day. By the middle of Qing Dynasty, with the prosperity of Shanxi merchants and the appearance of deep curtilage compound, this form became more and more refined in practice, and gradually developed into three categories: golden blue, multicolored and plain, as well as seven grades: big jinqing, second jinqing, small jinqing, upper multicolored, middle multicolored, lower multicolored and plain. There are five kinds of painting cores: landscape, flowers and birds, figures, Bo Gu and auspicious patterns. These ways, methods and types can be said to have everything in Changjia Manor, which is a unique exhibition hall of Han and Jin painting art in Jinzhong and Taiyuan generations. Among them, Guihetang's paintings are the most exquisite and high-grade, and they are called the top quality products in the existing Han brocade paintings by experts.
Chang Bingru, the owner of this guild hall, is the third son of Chang Huai _ and the youngest of the ten brothers. He was the head of internal affairs of the Chang family at that time. Therefore, it is conceivable that the bustling gate is now just an empty temple, and the noise of the past is gone forever, showing the ups and downs of the world.
