The Grand Mansion Gate(2001)

The Grand Mansion Gate Synopsis

This Chinese period drama series follows the fortunes of a prominent merchant family engaged in Traditional Chinese Medicine during the waning years of the Ching dynasty. The affairs of this family of doctors/pharmacists (which in those days were one and the same) are intimately linked with social upheavals of the time such as the encroachment of Christian missionaries and foreign imperialism as well as conflicts that inevitably emerge in a large upper class family. Comparable in scope and production value to such recent titles as "Downton Abbey", the lives and character of both masters and servants intertwine in plot lines that spans more than a generation.

The Grand Mansion Gate (2001) is a drama series that premiered on April 14, 2001, spanning 2 seasons and 72 episodes. It stars Chen Baoguo, Jiang Shan, Tong Ruixin and He Saifei. Viewers rate it 8.9 out of 10 across 15 ratings.
