Shihu Garden was built in the Ming Dynasty. The Inkstone Tower in Shihu Garden was originally the residence of Hu Bangzou, the chief criminal officer in Jiajing Period of Ming Dynasty. Later, in the eleventh year of Guangxu (1885), Ding Shanbao, the richest man in Weixian County, bought it with heavy gold and built the whole garden on the basis of Inkstone Tower. When we went to Shihu Garden, it happened to rain, and the color of the old antiques changed! I saw a lot of houses, including old people's houses, young women's houses, boudoirs, guest rooms. In short, the Ding family's house is very big!
