The red gate into the Mansion
The Prince Chun Mansion (simplified Chinese: 醇亲王府; traditional Chinese: 醇親王府; pinyin: Chún qīn wángfǔ), also known as the Northern Mansion (北府, Běifǔ), is a large residence in the siheyuan style with lavish private garden located near the Shichahai neighborhood in central Beijing. Originally it was the residence of Prince Chun, and the last Chinese emperor was born there.
Its garden became the residence of Soong Ching-ling between 1963 and 1981; it is now a public museum as her memorial performer residence open to visitors.
