Stone arch
The stone archway of Longmu ancestral temple is simple and solemn, graceful and luxurious, and the previous archway has no textual research. Now the archway was built in the 33rd year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1907). The archway is a three-bedroom, four-column and five-story structure, with a height of 10 m and a width of 9.5 m, all of which are made of granite mortises and tenons. Each pillar has a two-meter-high drum-holding stone, which is clamped back and forth.
There are small doors on both sides of the guardrail, which echo the main entrance at a distance. Both doors are carved with obvious western architectural style, but the content of carving is related to China folklore and stories, where Chinese and Western cultures blend.
