Introduction to the foyer of "Xizhonglai": The Mou clan attaches great importance to facade decoration in order to highlight their family status and show off their style. Among the six courtyards, "Xizhonglai" has a towering gate tower and is majestic. The gate frame is 5 meters high, 3.26 meters wide, and the threshold is 80 centimeters high. The hairpin above the gate is engraved with four patterns of "Qin, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting" to show the scholarly family background. The drum-holding stones on both sides of Xizhonglai Gate have lotus-shaped drum supports and are integrated with the stone drums.
