The ruins of the Taiye Pool of the Jin Zhongdu Capital

     The ruins of the Taiye Pool of the Jin Zhongdu Capital are located at No. 77 Guangwai South Street and are a cultural relic protection unit of Beijing.

     They are the remains of the imperial garden Yuzaopool in the Jin Zhongdu capital. Yuzaopool was an imperial garden located on the western side of the Jin palace city, formerly known as Yaochi (Jade Pool) of the Liao Nanjing palace city. There was an island in the pool, on which stood palaces such as Yaochi Hall. It was built in the first year of the Zhenyuan era of the Jin Dynasty (1153 AD) and was destroyed during the wars at the end of the Jin Dynasty. It is an important physical relic for studying the orientation of the Jin Zhongdu capital. Currently, the island and shore are connected, and only about a quarter of the water surface remains.
