Former Residence of Li Xuemeng

　　 The former residence of Li Xuemeng is located at No. 24 Munan Road, Heping District. The building’s walls were built with rough-textured bricks and feature various types of balconies and terraces. The facade is adorned with five square pillars, and the exterior design is dynamic and varied with a mix of recessed and protruding elements, making it refined and unique. Inside, the residence includes a living room, ballroom, dining room, and Buddhist shrine. All rooms were decorated with Philippine wood and fitted with differently styled fireplaces, making it a distinctive high-end European-style residential building within the former British concession. This residence is currently used by Sanyuan Electric Power Investment Company.

　　 In 1943, Li Xuemeng rented out his privately purchased residence to the puppet state of Manchukuo for use as its consulate in Tianjin at a monthly rent of 3,000 Japanese puppet yuan, where it remained until Japan’s surrender in 1945.
