Xiluo Yanping Old Street Cultural Center (Jiefa Qianji Tea House) Introduction
Combining beautiful architecture of Han, Japanese, and Western styles! The Xiluo Yanping Old Street Cultural Center was originally the Jie Fa Tea House of the Xu family and was later provided for free to local arts and cultural groups and community universities. This traditional three-section building features a tea house, hall, and courtyard, and is renowned as a classic structure that blends the characteristics of Han, Japanese, and Western architecture. In 2002, with the consent of the Xu family, the Luoyang Cultural Foundation moved into the old Jie Fa Tea House, and the Ministry of Culture assisted in establishing the "Xiluo Yanping Old Street Cultural Center" as a base for cultural revitalization and community renewal movements. Since then, Jie Fa Tea House has transformed into a venue for the Xiluo cultural renaissance. In 2007, Jie Fa was announced as a historical building. After 11 years, with funding from the Ministry of Culture, Yunlin County Government, fundraising by the Luoyang Cultural Foundation, and contributions from the Xu family, it was finally reopened in August 2013 in its complete and beautiful form. The Luoyang Cultural Foundation continues to operate the "Xiluo Yanping Old Street Cultural Center" and the "Xiluo Tourism Service Center." Having stood steadfastly in Xiluo Street for over a century, Jie Fa Tea House has provided opportunities for the continuation and renewal of Xiluo's historical culture. Today, the Jie Fa Tea House, now the Xiluo Yanping Old Street Cultural Center, continues to carry the mission of preserving and revitalizing the historical and cultural heritage of Xiluo while upholding the pioneering spirit of its founder, Xu Jinsheng, who was proactive in his work and charitable endeavors. - Free audio guides are provided - Arts and cultural activities and cultural promotion - Guided tours (reservation required) - Tourism inquiry services, providing guidebooks and event brochures
