There are seven archways in the archway group, which is the most famous archway in ancient Huizhou. The archway centered on the word "Yi", which was arranged from two ends to the middle in the order of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness in feudal society.

Of the seven archways, three were built in the Ming Dynasty and four in the Qing Dynasty. The three Ming Fang are Bao can Fang, cixiaoli Fang and Bao Xiangxian Shangshu Fang.

The four Qing archways are Bao Wenling's wife's Day filial piety archway, Bao Shufang's father and son's good fortune archway, Bao Fuyuan's Day filial piety archway and Bao Yunchang's filial son archway. Each archway has a story. When Qianlong went down to Jiangnan, Tangyue village was once known as "the first town in Jiangnan for its filial piety.".

One by one, seven archways cross the stone road in the countryside, forming a unique landscape.

There are two ancestral halls beside the memorial archways. One is "dunben hall", commonly known as men's temple.
