Inside the Largest Private Mansion in China: Why 99.5 Rooms? 🤯 | Ganxi Residence ｜传说中的“九十九间半”：南京甘熙故居

Описание: Hidden in the modern city of Nanjing lies the largest preserved private residence in China: The Ganxi Mansion (甘熙故居).

Legend says this house has exactly 99.5 rooms. Why the "half" room? Because in ancient China, the number 9 is the highest digit, reserved for the Emperor (who had 9,999.5 rooms in the Forbidden City). A commoner, no matter how rich, dared not exceed the limit.

Join me for a quiet winter walk through this labyrinth of courtyards, white walls, and black tiles. Experience the extreme aesthetics of traditional Chinese architecture. ❄️

🏮 Highlights:
The intricate "Maze" layout of the mansion (Ninety-nine and a half rooms)
Traditional Wood Carvings & Stone Art
The silence of a Winter Afternoon in China
