Guishan Academy is located at No. 1, Huixinzhong, Taoziyuan Community, Qiaodong Street, Huicheng District. It faces north and south, with an existing area of 35,964 square meters. Guishan Academy was first built in the first year of Ding (1324) of Yuantai. It was specially designed to worship Confucius, also known as the Confucius Temple. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it became the “educational talent” and was an important place for Guishan County to cultivate imperial examination talents.
The existing buildings of Guishan Academy are well preserved, with rich historical information and strong cultural connotations. It is not only a temple for respecting Confucius and guiding future generations, but also the highest institution and only official school of Guishan University. It has opened the precedent of Guishan County’s talent cultivation and has also planted the seeds of respecting culture and education in the Dongjiang River Basin.
Guishan Academy is responsible for the educational functions of inheriting culture and performing rituals and music. The Academy holds a grand ceremony for worshipping Confucius every year. In ancient times, the purpose of building Confucius Temple was not only to worship Confucius’ Saint, but also to pray for cultural fortune and express expectations for cultural prosperity.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Guishan Academy was built 26 times and moved to the site three times. The main structure of the building not only preserves the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty, but also integrates the architectural characteristics of the Qing Dynasty. It has superb craftsmanship and a strong Lingnan architectural style. It is the most ancient palace building in Huizhou. It is now a valuable physical material for studying ancient buildings.
In the Ming Dynasty, Guishan Academy built Lingxing Gate, Jimen, Panchi, Jiashan Pond, Loyalty, Filial Piety and Brotherly Babaylan Temple, Famous Officials Temple, Township Sage, Qingyun Pavilion, Wenchang Pavilion, etc. Now only the Jimen and the Temple of the Xianshi built in the 41st year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1613).
Huang Family Library
During the Qing Dynasty, the Huang Family members moved from Fujian to Huizhou, and reproduced and grew in Huizhou. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the Huang Family members built the Huang Family Ancestral Hall. Later, the Huang family’s children who came to Huizhou to take the exam were convenient for food, accommodation andTo prepare for the exam, the Huang clan ancestral hall was renamed “Huang clan study room”.
The Huang family’s study has three rooms wide and three deep, and is a typical Ming and Qing ancestral hall building. In July 2005, under the principle of “restore the original appearance and preserve the current situation”, the Huang Book of Komiks was opened as the “Dongjiang Folk Cultural Relics Museum”, and the overall renovation was made to be a special folk cultural relics museum in Huizhou City.
“A man wants to fulfill his life’s ambition, and read the Six Classics diligently to the window. “Babaylan”, stepping into the gate of the Dongjiang Folk Cultural Relics Museum, a simple picture of Dongjiang Folk History slowly unfolds, and couplets are engraved on both sides of the gate, “The first place in the family is the best, and the family is unparalleled in filial piety and friendship”, showing the world the ideals and ambitions of a family.
The museum displays more than 20,000 cultural relics with the imprint of Huizhou’s local culture, connecting the footprints of life of ancestors who are constantly seeking and rushing up and down, allowing every person with a heart who stops and looks at it to experience the simple and rich folk customs of the local people and feel the inherited and endless Dongjiang culture.
The moment I stepped out of the door, the endless stream of people was busy, and the West Lake hidden by green trees was as elegant as a painting, and it reflected the four words “Sky-opening Picture” on the door. Culture is a mirror of history, and history is the carrier of culture. For Huang’s study, the appearance of the study is changing, and the demand for it is also changing in the times.
From sacrificing ancestors to facilitate the test-taking children, and then to the display of Dongjiang folk customs, the historical roles of Huang’s study have been switched repeatedly. The only thing that remains unchanged is that as long as its living space is still there, it will never stop telling the world about the winds and rains along the way.

The current Fenghu Academy has basically restored antique buildings according to history and has become a scenic spot for Fenghu Academy.

Outside the courtyard, there are also pavilions, terraces, towers, pavilions, pavilions, and strange stones. Natural landscapes and historical culture complement each other, becoming a humanistic ecological landscape integrating culture, gardens, leisure and tourism.
As Song Xiang said, “Humanities are ancient Zou Lu; mountains and rivers are small, Peng Ying”, Fenghu Academy closely maintains the fragrance of books and a trace of literary context in Huizhou for thousands of years.
