Decorative architectural elements on a Chinese house.
Recently the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, opened Yin Yu Tang, the house of a Chinese merchant's family that has been reassembled on the museum's grounds. It is a two-story nineteen-room structure built around 1800 in the village of Huangcun in the Huizhou region of southeastern China. It had been vacant for fifteen years when it was dismantled in 1997 and shipped to the United States, where it underwent extensive preservation before reassembly. Yin Yu Tang provides visitors with a window onto two centuries of life in China. It is part of a $125 million expansion of the museum.
