明清园
A garden-style museum gathering Ming and Qing ancient buildings from Fujian and Jiangxi, with a concentration of fine wood and stone carvings and memorial archways.
Ming-Qing Garden lies on the eastern outskirts of Taining county town. It houses Ming and Qing residences, ancestral halls, opera stages and memorial archways relocated from Fujian, Jiangxi and elsewhere, along with extensive displays of wood, stone and brick carvings and furniture. It offers a concentrated window onto the traditional architectural craftsmanship of northern Fujian and eastern Jiangxi, and holds national 4A-level scenic area status. The grounds are compact and can be toured in 1–2 hours, making it suitable for a rainy day or as a complement to the old town. Admission follows the scenic area’s published prices.
