Introduction to the Shipyard Yamen Site: In the fifth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1866), when Shen Baozhen founded the Shipyard, he built a Shipyard Yamen in Mawei for the office of the Shipping Minister and other shipping officials. The Yamen is a brick and wood structure with three bays in width and an area of ​​about 480 square meters. In front of the Yamen, there is the Guanting Pond (i.e., the Life-Release Pond), left and right flagpoles, drum-holding stones, etc. On the forehead of the door hangs a wooden plaque with the word "Yamen". On the wooden pillars of the front porch, there is an inscription by Shen Baozhen: "With a spring as the foundation, there has been no such thing in the world since ancient times." Difficult thing; Zhijiu Gao translated the new method, and there are saints in China today. "The yamen has a hall, front and back patios, left and right wing rooms, etc." When the Fuma Railway was repaired in 1956, the Yamen was destroyed, and only Guantingchi remains today.
