Former Residence of Hu Shi, National heritage residence in Shangzhuang, China.

The residence features traditional Chinese architecture with multiple buildings arranged around courtyards, preserving the original layout from the early 20th century.

Built during the late Qing Dynasty, this residence gained prominence when Hu Shi, a leading intellectual of the New Culture Movement, lived here from 1891 to 1962.

The residence exhibits personal items, manuscripts, and photographs documenting Hu Shi's role in promoting vernacular Chinese literature and educational reforms.

The residence opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available in Mandarin Chinese that detail Hu Shi's contributions to modern Chinese thought.

The study room contains Hu Shi's original desk where he wrote influential essays promoting pragmatism and democracy in early 20th century China.
