Ancient study hall to open after restoration
An ancient study hall in Kam Tin, the New Territories, which has been declared as a historical building will be opened to the public on Sunday (December 4).
Yi Tai Shu Yuen, which literally means a study hall of the two immortals (the Man Cheong and Kwan Tai, literary god and martial god respectively), was built in the Daoguang Reign (1821-1850).
The study hall was used as a venue for educating the youngsters of the Shui Tau Tsuen.
It also emerged as an important focus of scholarship where prominent scholars from elsewhere held lectures.
