Shuncheng Prince Mansion

　　Destination Introduction
　　The Shuncheng Prince Mansion is located on Zhaodengyu Road in Xicheng District. The Shuncheng Prince was named Lekdehun, the second son of Saha, the third son of Prince Li Daisan. In the fifth year of the Shunzhi reign (1648), he was granted the title of Shuncheng Prince, becoming one of the Qing Dynasty’s founding “Eight Iron-Capped Princes.”

　　　　In 1994, the Shuncheng Prince Mansion was relocated to the eastern corner of Beijing’s Chaoyang Park. Today, the mansion is surrounded by lush flower beds and green lawns, with its garden-style layout being referred to as an “earthly paradise” for leisure, strolling, and entertainment.

　　　　The layout of the mansion is divided into three sections within the outer wall. The central section houses the main structures, which follow the typical format of other princely mansions: a front hall, residential quarters, a main gate (palace gate), a main hall with side wing rooms, a rear hall, and rear sleeping quarters (the original rear building no longer exists). The east and west sections served as living quarters. When Zhang Zuolin occupied Beijing, he used the mansion as his Grand Marshal’s Office. After 1949, it became the office location for the permanent institutions of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. The CPPCC Auditorium was built just outside the main gate of the mansion, and the main structures in the central section have been largely preserved intact. Several courtyards in the eastern section still maintain their original layout. In 1984, it was designated as a key cultural relic protected at the municipal level in Beijing.
