Old residence of Cai family, Historical residence in Nan'an, China.

The Old Residence of the Cai Family contains numerous halls with intricate wood carvings depicting scenes from Chinese folklore and historical events.

Built in 1934 by brothers who made their fortune in Indonesia's rubber industry, the residence became a guerrilla outpost after the 1937 Japanese invasion.

The residence displays traditional architectural elements of the Ming and Qing dynasties through its wooden structures, decorative patterns, and spatial arrangements.

Visitors can reach the residence by taking bus 13 for ¥2 to Mo Cun stop, followed by a 3-kilometer walk through fields and residential areas.

The residence contains a small museum that documents the Cai family's involvement in regional trade networks and their influence on local education.
