Introduction

The village was originally named Yaohua Fang and was established in 1923 by overseas Chinese living in Canada. The village consists of five cottages, including Jun Lu, An Lu, Yaodong Ju Lu, Chun Lu, and Yu Lu, as well as four buildings, namely Huade Building, Guohao Building, Guogen Building, and Chunru Building. In the 1920s and 1930s, many magnificent houses and clubs were built, integrating elements of Chinese traditional architecture such as gray sculpture, Roman columns, round arches, and flower carvings with Western architectural styles, showcasing outstanding architectural artistry and drawing attention.
