The Residence Where Chen Yun Lived and Worked in Yao

The Residence Where Chen Yun Lived and Worked in Yao is a cultural relic protection unit of Yuyao City.

This house is located on Xundai Road, Longquan Community, Yuyao City, and served as a refuge for Chen Yun during the revolutionary period. The main building of the structure faces south with a north orientation, featuring a flush gable roof, seven bays, and a front and rear courtyard, with stone gateways on the east and west sides. The central bay of the main building has a post-and-lintel roof frame supported by six pillars and ten rafters. The side, end, and rear bays feature a mixed post-and-lintel and through-tenon roof frame, with seven pillars and ten rafters. The central and side bays form one courtyard, while the end bays form another, separated by a partition wall, with screened doors under the corridor connecting them. The lattice doors and windows are quaint and graceful.
