Jingyuan Garden

Jingyuan, established in 1921, is located at No. 70 Anshan Road, Heping District, Tianjin (formerly Miyajima Street in the Japanese Concession). Originally named Qianyuan, it was the private residence of Lu Zongyu, the Beiyang Government's envoy to Japan. From 1929 to 1931, the last emperor Puyi lived here with Empress Wanrong and Consort Wenxiu, renaming it 'Jingyuan', which means to observe the situation quietly and wait for the opportunity. Just like its name, Jingyuan is situated in a quiet ordinary alley, with a unique style, and is one of the more distinctive among the many small western-style buildings in Tianjin.

Jingyuan was built in 1921, originally named Qianyuan, and was the private residence of Lu Zongyu. From 1929 to 1931, Puyi, the last emperor, moved here, taking the meaning of 'watching changes quietly' and 'waiting for the right moment', renamed it Jingyuan, and from here he fled to Dalian and ascended the throne of the 'pseudo-Manchukuo'. The lawn and sunshade chairs in front of the fountain in the courtyard give it a high-end feel of a golf course from a distance due to the leisure of resting visitors, and the small western-style building is also exquisite and stylish, instantly transporting you to the life of the Republic of China's nobility. 🚇Transportation: Get off at Anshan Road Station on Line 1 and walk for 10 minutes 🎫Ticket: 20 yuan/person (tickets can be purchased by scanning a code at the entrance) ⏰Opening hours: 09:00-17:30 (entry stops at 17:00) 📍Address: No. 70 Anshan Road, Heping District, Tianjin Tour time: 1-2 hours 👉🏻Main buildings to visit ① Puyi Exhibition Hall: The original waiting area for those requesting an audience with Puyi, now used to display photos, with a screening room that plays a rolling video, about ten minutes long, which can give you a brief understanding of the history of Puyi and Jingyuan before touring. ② Main Building: Three floors, combining the characteristics of Japanese wooden architecture and Spanish architectural style. The structure and materials of the doors are typically Japanese, simple, natural, and minimalist. 👉🏻1st Floor ◆ Original entrance hall: The fish-shaped wall fountain at the entrance is a characteristic structure of Jingyuan. ◆ Original large/small dining room: Rooms for entertaining guests. ◆ Original council hall: Where discussions about the restoration of the monarchy took place. ◆ Original reception room: A place for private talks. ◆ Original embroidery room: Bigger than the rooms of Puyi and Wanrong! The material life in Jingyuan could not alleviate the spiritual pressure. ◆ Cultural and creative shop: Sells cultural and creative popsicles and some peripheral products. 👉🏻2nd Floor ◆ Original Puyi's bedroom/study: Sustained life by selling calligraphy and paintings brought out from the palace, carefree but also frustrated. ◆ Original ancestral hall: The first direct feeling that the Qing Dynasty really perished just over a hundred years ago. 👉🏻3rd Floor Corridor: Not open to the public ◆ Where the guards stood watch, the wooden structure is a carefully preserved historical original. ③ West Courtyard: A place for enjoyment and leisure, the continuous arch design of the gallery is a medieval Spanish architectural style. There is also a fish-shaped blue spring here, because of Puyi's fondness for it, a similar dragon-shaped wall fountain was also built in the pseudo-Manchu palace. ④ Jingyuan Restoration Exhibition Hall: Photos from the restoration of Jingyuan and some technical introductions. It's hard to imagine that this exquisite little western-style building once became a large courtyard housing 45 families, became a dangerous building, and after relocation and renovation, it was restored to its current state according to the principle of 'restoring the old as it was'. 💯For those who like history and photography, Jingyuan is a good place to visit. The overall feeling during the tour is very comfortable, the exhibition is well organized, and you can indeed learn something, with a strong sense of immersion.
