About Mingfentang Opera Stage, Hu'an
The Mingfentang is the ancestral hall of the Cheng family of Hu'an village, begun in 1817, and its stage was added later and took three years to build. It is a double-sided "mandarin-duck" stage, 25 m wide, 12 m deep and 14 m high, with a fair-weather side facing the village square and a rainy-day side facing the main hall, the two backing onto each other. Leping is known as the home of Gan opera and has more than 400 old stages.
