The second floor revolves around wooden art, especially wooden furniture, such as beds, folding screens, carvings and desks. The wooden bed in the young master’s room is eye-catching. The bed frame is decorated with more than one hundred figures, each representing the themes of blessing, prosperity and longevity. The most special part of the bed lies in its structure, as the top of the bed provides a roof. While the gilded wooden dresser produces a golden radiance, the bed beside it looks somber and serene due to its dark paintings and broad frames.

The third floor centers on the architectural styles of Chizhou locals. Different areas, such as living rooms, studies, theaters and corridors are displayed in order to reenact the daily lives of ancient people.
The warm-bed is worth a close look. The bed, covered with colorful paintings, dates back to the Qing dynasty (1644-1912). The gilded cabinets are exquisitely placed beside the bed. The chandelier hanging over the bed was imported and dates back to the Qing dynasty.
