Superior Exam Results

Ping Shan, Hong Kong view map

At the entrance hall of “Ching Shu Hin”,
the Tangs were so proud to erect the honorific boards
they received from the Imperial Civil Service Examination
in the Qing dynasty (1644 – 1912).

The golden Chinese characters on the red wooden panels
shine at the honourable status the Tangs family achieved.
