Composition of other hospitals

Other courtyard is composed of study, Buddhist hall, kitchen, dining room and storeroom. Further east, there is a small gate to the third flower hall garden. The biggest feature of the flower hall is the waterside pavilion and the stage. It is a gathering and acting place in the mansion. The pool covers an area of 56 square meters, with crucian carp, goldfish and other aquariums. The stage built above the pool covers an area of about 30 square meters. There is a dressing room behind the stage and a restaurant on both sides of the pool. There are rockeries and snow caves behind the restaurant. A pavilion is built on the front of the stage. It sits north to south, with a front porch and a back hall. It has a bucket like wooden frame and a single eaves on the top of the hill. It can be used for parties, watching dramas or climbing. The plaster of the wall and the ridge of the roof are all exquisitely made with unique style. It is the best preserved Water Pavilion stage in Fuzhou. It was announced as a cultural relic protection unit at district level in 1992.

Shuixie stage was first built in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty. It was originally a squire's house. It was composed of three buildings: ZhengLuo (main block), ZhongLuo (other courtyard) and bianluo (flower hall garden) from west to East. There are three entrances to the main block, one entrance to other courtyard and three entrances to flower hall garden, with a construction area of more than 2600 square meters. The stairs leading to the second floor are hidden in the snow cave, exquisite and beautiful.

The value of waterside pavilion stage is that the stage is built in its own house and on the pool. Due to disrepair for a long time, the ancient buildings are seriously damaged. Before the restoration, the main building became a zipper factory. In front of the other courtyard was the neighborhood committee, and in the back was the home. The flower hall garden was also changed into a factory warehouse. On December 30, 2006, the Management Committee of Sanfang Qixiang protection and restoration project started to repair the water Pavilion stage.

The house where Shuixie stage is located is Zheng's house. Zheng's house is a big family. Every year, when spring wine or other wedding events are held on the third day of the first month, the host graciously invites many relatives and friends to the house to get together. They sit in the hall, enjoying dinner and tea while listening to music and watching the opera, while the wives sit in the restaurant and attic to watch the opera.

Restoration work

In the restoration project, the gatehouse of the main block, the front and rear pavilions, the front and rear cloisters, the western architecture, the gatehouse of the flower hall garden, the rockery, the pavilion, the arch bridge, the back attic and so on were reconstructed. The "inlay restoration" method was adopted to retain and utilize the original components as far as possible. The original wood was treated with anti-corrosion and anti ant treatment, and the missing and rotten components were replaced and supplemented. For the sake of coordination, the new wood is not colored, but only used.
