Prince Gongs Mansion Ⅲ

Covering 60,000 square meters (14.8 acres) of land in the heart of Beijing, it is the world's largest courtyard house. Consisting of the living quarter and a garden, the Prince Gong Residence is imposing and magnificent. Rooms and yards are laid out in turnings and in maze, while the scenery is exquisite and delicate. In the old days there was murmuring stream flowing through the garden which has many similarities with the Grand View Garden.

The living quarter containing the mansion buildings is located in the south, including five Siheyuan courtyards from south to north in file. On the central line stand one behind another, three structures: the Main Hall, the Rear Hall and a 160-meters-long building with more than 40 rooms.
