An enormous complex of seven ancient arches, this monument is a key national cultural protection unit. Situated in the Tangyue village; few kilometres away from the Shexian County, it is the biggest existing and best-preserved complex of arches in Anhui Province.

These seven archways were constructed by the Baos in the honour of the merits and virtues of their family members and stand in the main street of the village. They are presented in the order of 'loyalty, filial piety, chastity and charity'. Every archway has a fascinating tale behind it and the most ancient one can be traced back to 580 years.

Other attractions include the Nuci and Nanci also called as Qingyi ancestral temple and Dunben ancestral temple.
