About Yu Kiu Ancestral Hall

Yu Kiu Ancestral Hall was built between 1500 and 1520, in the Ming dynasty, by two brothers of the Tang clan, and it stands beside the Tang Ancestral Hall in Ping Shan. It has three halls and two internal courtyards, with the ancestral altar in the rear hall and a red sandstone door frame at the main entrance. From 1931 to 1961 it also housed Tat Tak Public School, and the latest major restoration was completed in 1995.
