Qionglin Cai Clan Ancestral Hall Introduction

Built in the 8th year of the Jiajing era of the Ming Dynasty (1529), its elaborate interior and exterior decorations are renowned as the crown of the Kinmen clan halls. The ridge, gables, and water wheel block are adorned with exquisite cut-out paste and clay sculptures. Under the main beam, a bracket is intricately carved with the four characters of the Tsai family's teachings: loyalty, filial piety, integrity, and節. The main hall displays numerous plaques that highlight the prominence of the family. Additionally, the outer wall at the back of the building features a rare representation of a wind lion god.
