Former Residence of Ma Zhiyuan

Former Residence of Ma Zhiyuan

The former residence of Ma Zhiyuan is a cultural tourism attraction.

The former residence of Ma Zhiyuan is located in Jiuyuan Folk Village, Mentougou District, Beijing, where the Wangping Ancient Road, part of the Western Beijing Ancient Road, can be found. The residence is a standard courtyard house, facing east and backed by the west, with rooms on all four sides—east, west, south, and north—each having three to five rooms. In front of the residence, there is a small bridge over flowing water, and the wall behind the entrance gate is inscribed with “Former Residence of Ma Zhiyuan,” accompanied by an introduction to Ma Zhiyuan’s life, beneath which is a half-length bust of him. The village of Jiuyuan is filled with Chinese toon trees and several springs, creating a scene that truly resembles the one described in Ma Zhiyuan’s verse: “Withered vines, old trees, dusk crows; small bridge, flowing water, people’s homes.”
