A 300-Year-Old Encounter: Hakka Grand Courtyard in Shenzhen Revitalized

Shenzhen | A 300-Year-Old Hakka Grand Courtyard Reborn with New Vitality The Changshou Drama Valley was transformed from the renovated Jiang Clan Ancestral House in Changshou Village. After the Longma Society settled in, the ancient village merged with theatrical culture, unleashing a unique dramatic energy that speaks of Shenzhen and Pingshan. 300 years later, revitalized by the Longma Society, it’s now a perfect spot for artistic exploration— 💛"Ruins Theater"💛 Walking past the "Changshou Theater" (open irregularly; closed during my visit), you’ll reach the "Ruins Theater." The fragmented walls give the space a distinctive village charm, with a few seemingly randomly placed chairs resembling a silent exhibition. 💛"Wo Zhai Homestay"💛 Next time, I’d love to stay overnight in this centuries-old building, quietly stealing a half-day of leisure. The attached tea room also has a wonderful ambiance. 💛Bai Xiao Tang💛 Bai Xiao Tang is a restaurant in the Drama Valley, sharing its name with the century-old shop from the play *Duan Jin*, starring Zhang Guoli. 💛Jia Fu Sui💛 Hidden in the commune is the Jia Fu Sui Library, themed around drama, with collections spanning art, philosophy, design, music, and more. Strolling through the alleys feels like stepping into *Dream of the Red Chamber*. I adore every inch of weathered texture and patch of moss. What stories did this Hakka mansion hold 300 years ago? In an instant, time seems to stand still, transcending eras. Selfishly, I hope this destination doesn’t become too popular—its true essence lies in its quiet serenity.
