Kèqín Jùnwáng Mansion

        Attraction Introduction:  

        Kèqín Jùnwáng Mansion was the residence of Yuetuō, the eldest son of Dàishàn, the first Kèqín Jùnwáng, who was also the eldest grandson of Nurgaci, the founder of the Qing Dynasty. It is situated on Shífùmǎ Dàjiē (now Xīn Wénhuà Jiē) in Beijing. Constructed in the early Qing Dynasty, the mansion originally had three courtyards. It was one of the “Eight Iron-Capped Princes” of the early Qing period. Yuetuō, the Kèqín Jùnwáng, and his descendants lived here until the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, after which Xióng Xīlíng took over the residence.

　 　The mansion was built during the Shùnzhì era. Originally, it did not cover a large area, but its layout generally conformed to the standards of a princely residence. The screen wall on the south side of the mansion still exists, while only the eastern wing building remains in the front section. The inner gate, rear sleeping quarters, eastern and western side rooms, and rear enclosing rooms in the back section are all well-preserved. Most of the original structures in the western wing courtyard also remain. After the Republic of China period, the last Kèqín Prince, Màn Sēn, sold the mansion to Xióng Xīlíng as his residence.

　　On the corner pillars of the two gable walls of the rear sleeping quarters, inscriptions remain showing that Xióng Xīlíng and his wife Zhū Qíhuì donated the property to the Beijing Relief Association. It is a key cultural relic protected by Beijing Municipality.

        Now the site houses the Beijing No. 2 Experimental Primary School
