Yiwu Huangshan Bamian Hall, national heritage building complex in Huangshan Village, Yiwu, Zhejiang, China

Yiwu Huangshan Bamian Hall is a Qing Dynasty building complex in Huangshan Village, Shangxi Town, Yiwu, Zhejiang. It was built by the wealthy merchant Chen Zicai during the Qianlong and Jiaqing reigns. The rectangular plan measures about 70 meters long and 40 meters wide, oriented southwest to northeast. Its interior holds extensive brick, stone, and wood carvings, with the wood carvings the most refined.

The hall was built by the wealthy local merchant Chen Zicai during the Qianlong and Jiaqing reigns of the Qing Dynasty, spanning the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In 2001 it was listed in the fifth batch of Major Historical and Cultural Sites Protected at the National Level.

The name Bamian Ting, 'Eight-Faced Hall', is not explained in the sources; the building was commissioned by the wealthy merchant Chen Zicai during the Qianlong and Jiaqing reigns. Its interior is noted above all for wood carvings, alongside brick and stone carvings, which visitors can examine on the beams and panels.

The hall stands in Huangshan Village, Shangxi Town, in the west of Yiwu; the building faces northeast, so morning light falls on its carved front. The site is a nationally protected monument, and signage and explanations are in Chinese, so a Chinese-reading companion or a local guide helps with the carvings and the layout.

The building's plan is a rectangle about 70 metres long and 40 metres wide, oriented southwest to northeast. Its interior holds large numbers of brick, stone and wood carvings, and the wood carvings are considered the finest of the three. The hall was built by the local merchant Chen Zicai during the Qianlong and Jiaqing reigns of the Qing dynasty.
