Built before 1869, this was the traditional Chinese residential compound home of prominent Chinese literary figure Zheng Guanying, whose works on economic markets influenced both Dr Sun Yat Sen and Mao Tse Tung and were invoked by them in promoting major historic changes in China. This traditional Chinese residential complex is located adjacent to Lilau Square, one of the city’s first Portuguese-style piazzas, illustrating Macao’s multicultural background in this mix of architectural features and the building’s immediate and contrasting urban environment.Visitor Capacity: The whole complex can accommodate a maximum of 200 visitors at any one time. A maximum of 60 visitors are allowed inside the main building (Yu-Qing-Tang Mansion and Ji-Shan-Tang Mansion) at any one time. Visitors are requested to oblige with the visiting capacity of the property and staff on site will offer assistance. Cooperation will be appreciated.
