Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, also known as Chen's Academy, is located in Guangzhou. It is a clan ancestral hall built by the Chen clan of Guangdong during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. The building is large in scale and integrates the essence of Lingnan's "three carvings, two sculptures, one casting and one painting" craftsmanship. It is known as the "Pearl of Lingnan Architectural Art" and is now the location of the Guangdong Folk Arts and Crafts Museum, a national first-class museum.
