Jingjiang Prince's Palace was first built in 1372 as the princely mansion of Zhu Shouqian, Prince Jingjiang of the Ming Dynasty. It is one of China's oldest and best-preserved Ming Dynasty princely mansions. Built against Duxiu Peak, the architecture features central axis symmetry, modeled after imperial palaces, including Chengyun Hall and living quarters. Integrating with the mountainous terrain, its red walls and yellow tiles contrast with natural scenery, blending royal grandeur and Lingnan architectural characteristics.
