There is a horse road in the east-west direction of the castle, there are several thick shadow walls on the south side of the horse road, and there are six courtyards on the north side. Most of them are three-entry courtyards. According to grades, long and young, respect and inferiority, etc., divided into many functional courtyards and rooms according to the class. The courtyard is also full of amazing three sculptures. How much money and how much time it took to build the yard. What a powerful craft team. The Wang Family Courtyard is a microcosm of China's 5,000-year glorious civilization history.
