Boutique Hotels in Chaozhou

The courtyard of this old residence, where Song Ju lived, is located at the intersection of the political, cultural, and educational centers of the ancient city of Chaozhou, surrounded by the Memorial Archway Street, Zhenhai Tower, the former prefecture office, the Huaiyang County Confucian Temple, West Lake, the Marquis Xu Mansion, and Chenghuang Temple.The original name of the residence was "Kui Garden," with "Kui" being the posthumous name of the original owner, Mr. Liao. In the late Qing Dynasty, Mr. Liao had passed the imperial examinations and became a candidate for the metropolitan examination. He purchased land here to build the residence and established a private school to educate his descendants in Confucian classics, earning widespread respect.Kui Garden and the adjacent "Liaocuo Temple" were both built during the Republic of China era, with a history spanning over a century. Time flies, and the two century-old longan trees in the courtyard stand as witnesses to the passage of time.Nowadays, visitors from Chaozhou staying at Songjun Homestay can not only immerse themselves in a Song Dynasty-style aesthetic courtyard but also savor the aroma of Gongfu tea under the trees, experiencing the leisurely and carefree slow life of the ancient Chaozhou city—how delightful it is.
