Tang Kwong U Ancestral Hall

Tang Kwong U Ancestral Hall was built in 1701 to commemorate Tang Kwong U, the seventeenth generation ancestor of the Tang clan in Guangdong Province. The ancestral hall is a building with two halls. A stone tablet was found inlaid on the right wall of the altar in the rear hall during a renovation in the 1990s. The tablet is an important relic, providing a written record of the history of the construction of the ancestral hall and its renovation in 1782.
