Wang-An Flower House (merged with Zeng Family Ancient House and renamed Wang-An Flower House, now closed) Introduction
Wang'an Flower House, located in Zhongsha Village, Wang'an Township, Penghu, is an ancient garden residence with more than a hundred Minnan-style buildings, showcasing the prosperity of the past. The original name of Zhongsha Ancient House was "Flower House," and in the center of Flower House is a small hill, referred to by the residents as "Flower Heart," meaning the center of Flower House. The Flower House settlement is one of the more well-preserved traditional settlements in Penghu. The name "Flower House" comes from the terrain, surrounded by hills, resembling petals surrounding a flower heart, where the ancestors cultivated land and built houses near the flower heart (at the top of the hill). Later, when Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo visited Flower House, he renamed it "Zhongsha" Ancient House, believing it was in the center of Zhongsha Village. The whole village of Zhongsha is filled with ancient houses, representing a unique settlement pattern of "a single print" in a Sanheyuan style. The preservation of ancient houses here is quite complete, possessing historical and cultural value. This site has been listed among the world's 100 sites at risk of disappearance and has been officially registered as a "Preservation Area for Ancient Houses" by the Council for Cultural Affairs. 【Recommended Stay Duration】 1 hour
