Near Fú’ān Bridge, this property of the Shen clan is a lavish piece of Qing-style architecture boasting three halls and over 100 rooms. The first hall is particularly interesting, as it has a water gate and a wharf where the family moors their private boats. You can picture the compound entirely daubed in Maoist graffiti circa 1969 (note the crudely smashed carvings above the doors).
You'll need a separate ticket (¥10) for the Zǒumǎ Lóu (走马楼; 8am-4.30pm) where a further six courtyards and 45 rooms await (a third of the entire building).
