Huize's largest and best-preserved guild hall, a national key cultural relic protection unit, with exquisite wood carvings on its old opera stage.
The Jiangxi Guild Hall, also known as Wanshou Palace, was first built in the Kangxi era of the Qing dynasty and renovated in the Qianlong era. It was funded by copper merchants from Jiangxi. It covers about 8,000 square meters, with the opera stage, the Hall of the True Lord and the Guanyin Pavilion laid out along its central axis. The woodwork and stone carvings are exquisite, and it is a national key cultural relic protection unit. Exhibits on copper-merchant culture explain the transport of 'capital copper' and the history of coin minting at the Baoyun Bureau. Admission is about 30–40 yuan, subject to on-site notices. Allow about 1 hour. It is located in the center of the old town and is within walking distance of Tang Jiyao's former residence.
