- Its architectural guide names a 12-rayed sun, a “heaven-supporting” triangle, and cloud motifs among the gable symbols.
Field notes
The historical account describes the present building as the school’s second, raised with donations from Chinese merchants and business owners in the region. Its architectural section breaks the gable symbolism into named elements, while the page also points to audio-guide controls and an old-photo archive. For visiting, it lists free admission and Sunday opening at 10:00, advising visitors to call ahead about other days.
