Kang Dayong, the twelfth generation owner of the manor of the Kang family, built it in the early years of Qianlong.

"Kang Baiwan" is the collective name for the Kang Yingkui family since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became famous all over the world because of the canonization of the family by Empress Dowager Cixi.

During the Hongwu period of the early Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Kang family settled by the Luohe River in Kangdian Town, Gong County (now Gongyi).

In order to provide food and clothing, the ancestors of the Kang family opened a small restaurant on the bank of Luohe River.

As winter comes and summer comes, the small shop gradually becomes a well-known inn in Heluo area.

Later, the location of the inn was called "Kangjiadian".

During the period of Kang Shaojing, the sixth generation descendant of the Kang family, Kang Shaojing studied and became an official. He was first appointed as Yicheng in Weichuan (now Weishi County, Henan), and was later promoted to ambassador to Dongchang Mansion in Shandong (now Liaocheng, Shandong).

Kang Shaojing held important positions in local water and land transportation, salt industry and taxation.

During the Qing Dynasty, when the Qing government suppressed the White Lotus Sect, the Kang family used various means to obtain orders for military supplies related to cloth for ten years. Before that, the Kang family had monopolized the cloth market in Shaanxi.

At the same time, the Kang family made a fortune from shipbuilding and land, and was known as the "millionaire".

After the continuous efforts of several generations of the Kang family, the small "Kang Family Store" has turned into a huge manor covering an area of ??more than 240 acres and containing 19 parts.

Cave dwellings are built on the mountain, buildings are built on the street, and docks are set up on the river. It integrates farmers, officials and merchants. There are 33 courtyards, 53 buildings, 73 cave dwellings and more than 1,300 houses. The courtyard buildings are two typical types in western Henan.

The entrance courtyard has the characteristics of both garden art and palace art.

During the prosperous period, people came and went from the brick factory, lumber factory, and shipyard in the manor, and the owners of the Kang family could meet all their daily needs without leaving home.

During the Qing Dynasty (AD 1790-1820), the Kang family was already extremely wealthy, with their fields covering dozens of miles.

As the family wealth accumulated, the Kang family expanded the original manor and added the houses to the top of the mountain, thus forming this medieval-style castle.

"Kangwanwan Manor" is a masonry castle-shaped building isolated from the outside world, with walls surrounding the mountainside. In 1900 during the late Qing Dynasty, the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing. Empress Dowager Cixi and Guangxu fled Beijing to Xi'an the following year, and later

Returning to Beijing again, when passing through Kangdian Town in Gongyi, the shopkeeper of the Kang family "Kang Hongyou", known as "the number one merchant in Henan Province", came to the rescue and donated one million silver taels to the Qing Dynasty. Empress Dowager Cixi said, "I didn't expect this."

There are also millions of homes in the ravine.

" was widely circulated and was given the title "Kang Baiwan". "Kang Baibao" became the collective name for the "Kang family" who owned the manor, so the Kang family's manor became Kang Baiwan Manor.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Communist Party of China renovated the manor to retain its old appearance of "Mingshi Louyuan and Qingshi Corridor". In the 1950s, one-third of the houses in Kangwanwan Manor were confiscated.

It was expropriated and used as an office, school and post office, and the other 2/3 of the houses were given to local poor farmers. 60 years later, 1/3 of the area taken over by the Communist Party of China is the current Kangwan Manor Scenic Area.

The other houses in the family have long been replaced by cement and ceramic tiles. In June 1963, Kangwanwan Manor was announced as a key cultural relic protection unit by the Henan Provincial People's Government;

"Planning Requirements", on the basis of fully retaining the original layout of the manor, more than 34 million yuan was spent to repair the hotel area, south courtyard, workshop area, stage, etc., and effectively remediate the ground settlement of the square. In addition, the original land settlement was also repaired.

Some gardens, orchards, courtyard spaces, etc. have been repaired and restored according to historical styles.
