Flocks of tourists visited Huguang Guild Hall to retrospect their "roots"
on Oct. 23, 2005. The repair project started in Dec. of 2003, cost 110
million yuan (US$13.56 million), and opened to the public on Sep. 30 in
2005. The Guild Hall covers an area of more than 12,000 square meters,
making it the largest ancient guild hall existing in China. Through
numerous cultural relics and historical records, the guild hall tells
people the spectacular migration from Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong and Guangxi
to Sichuan in the Late Ming (1368-1644) and the Early Qing (1616-1911)
dynasties more than 300 years before.
