Scenic spot introduction:
Loudi Shuangfeng Zeng Guofan's Hometown Tourist Area is a memorial site for Zeng Guofan, an important historical figure in modern history of our country. With its former residence Fuhoutang as its core, it is one of the most popular scenic spots for cultural tourism in Hunan. Although the whole building is on the scale of a prince's palace, it is simple and generous. Although it has carved beams and paintings, it is not grand. Its most important part is that it once contained more than 300,000 volumes of books. It is one of the largest private libraries in my country that is well preserved. This large-scale architectural group in the Qing Dynasty that imitates the cloister style of the Song and Ming Dynasties is still well preserved and has important historical and artistic value. Although it is controversial, it does not affect people's visit and understanding of Zeng Guofan's ups and downs life.Attractions distribution:
