Has anyone had the opportunity to visit their ancestral village in China? I'm hoping to be able to visit my paternal father's village in Taishan this fall, and I was wondering what experiences other Chinese genealogists may have had. For example, did you meet your extended relatives? Were they able to share additional family information? Did you see the burial sites of any of your ancestors or the remains of an ancestral hall? And do you have any suggestions for making the most of the trip?
