Tang Chung Ling Ancestral Hall, Ancestral hall in North District, Hong Kong.

Tang Chung Ling Ancestral Hall is a declared monument featuring a three-hall layout with two interior courtyards, decorated throughout with intricate wood carvings and wooden screens.

Built in 1525 to honor Tang Chung-ling, the hall later served the community as a village school during the 1940s and 1950s.

The central chamber displays ancestral tablets belonging to a Song dynasty princess and her husband, marked by carved dragon heads that frame these important family records.

Plan your visit during daylight hours to see the wood carvings and architectural details in good light. The site maintains regular opening hours but closes on Tuesdays and major holidays, so check the schedule before traveling.

The right chamber honors Tang Si-meng, a servant who sacrificed his life protecting his master during a kidnapping attempt. This memorial reflects the personal bonds remembered within family halls.
