Kóng-sing-lâu, Historic house in Chihkan Village, Taiwan.
The three-story Kóng-sing-lâu features a hexagonal base constructed with mud bricks and granite, displaying traditional Taiwanese architectural elements throughout its structure.
The pagoda structure dates back over 600 years and functioned as a defense against flooding while supporting the Tang clan's aspirations in imperial examinations.
Members of the Tang clan achieved numerous titles during the Ming and Qing dynasties, with the building's location selected according to feng shui principles.
The historic site maintains regular visiting hours and provides educational tours that explain the architectural features and historical significance of the structure.
The building's original seven floors were reduced to three due to natural erosion, yet it retains inscriptions referencing star gathering and scholarly success.
