The Former Residence of Hu Yaobang or Hu Yaobang's Former Residence (Chinese: 胡耀邦故居; pinyin: Hú Yàobāng Gùjū) was built in the late Qing dynasty (1644���1911), which is located in Cangfang Village, Zhonghe Town, Liuyang, Hunan.[1] It covers a building area of about 450-square-metre (4,800 sq ft), embodies buildings such as the old houses, the Yaobang Square, the Ancestral Temple , the Ancestral Grave, the Cultural relics Exhibition Hall, the old well, etc.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
History[]
The residence was built in the period of the Xianfeng Emperor (1851–1862) during the Qing dynasty (1644–1911) by Hu Yaobang's great-grandfather Hu Mingzhong (胡明鍾) and Hu Mingzhong's elder brother Hu Mingjing (胡明鏡).
On 13 November 1915, Hu Yaobang was born in the home.
In 1962, when Hu Yaobang returned home and visited it, he told his relatives not to rebuild the home. Despite this wish, the residence was rebuilt in February 1995 by the People's Government of Liuyang City. In September, Hu Yaobang's wife Li Zhao (李昭) visited the residence. The next year, the residence was listed a Hunan Province's most important culture and relics site.
In 2002, it was listed as a Provincial Patriotic Education Base.
In February 2005, the Cultural relics Exhibition Hall was built.
On 6 May 2013, it was listed as a "Major National Historical and Cultural Sites" by the State Council of China.[1]
On 12 April 2014, Hu Jintao visited the residence.[7][8][9]
