Hong Liangji Memorial Hall

Hong Liangji Memorial Hall is situated at No. 20, Dongshizi Lane, Yancheng East Road. Hong Liangji (1746–1809) was a celebrated Qing Dynasty scholar of Confucian classics, literary figure, historian, and demographer, with over 40 published works and more than 500 volumes of writings. His former residence was originally located at the entrance of Xishizi Lane but was relocated to its current site during urban redevelopment and converted into the Hong Liangji Memorial Hall. The memorial features an entrance hall as the first section; the second section includes three rooms on the east side known as the "Wind-Snow Scripture Teaching Hall," where his mother supervised his studies, displaying Hong Liangji’s manuscripts and related materials; the west room served as his late-life study, the "Regenerated Studio." The rear section is dedicated to the memorial of Hong Shen, Hong Liangji’s sixth-generation descendant. On December 31, 1994, the centennial of the birth of Hong Shen (1894–1955), a renowned modern dramatist, the hall officially opened to the public (including the Hong Shen Memorial), showcasing the life stories, works, manuscripts, personal belongings, and archival materials of both Hong Liangji and Hong Shen. In December 1987, it was designated as a municipal-level cultural relics protection unit.
