Zhongcui Palace, Ming Dynasty palace in Beijing, China.

Zhongcui Palace is a Ming Dynasty complex with multiple connected halls arranged according to classical Chinese architectural principles. The buildings are organized around courtyards, with yellow-tiled roofs and stone bases that create a formal, symmetrical layout.

Built in 1420 under the Yongle Emperor as Xianyang Palace, it was renamed Zhongcui Palace in 1535. In 1571 its front and rear halls became Xinglong and Shengzhe halls for the crown prince, later reverting to the old name. Repaired in 1655, 1831, 1874, 1890 and 1897, it gained a hanging-flower gate and covered corridors in the late Qing.

The name Zhongcui, adopted in 1535, means "gathering of essences." Each year on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, a Guoxun painting, here Xu Hou Feng'an Tu on the virtue of respecting elders, was hung on the west wall of the main hall with a poem on the east wall, remaining until the 2nd day of the second month. The palace now houses the Palace Museum's jade gallery.

Zhongcui Palace is the northwestern palace of the Eastern Six Palaces, entered through the south-facing Zhongcui Gate; inside is a suspended-gable chuanhua gate with covered corridors linking to the front courtyard's side halls. The palace is now the Palace Museum's jade gallery, so access follows the museum's opening arrangements. The complex has two courtyards; the rear courtyard's well pavilion stands in its southwest corner.

The palace holds the Jade Gallery of the Palace Museum, displaying jade objects from the imperial collection. In 2008 it hosted an exhibition of Qianlong-era jade, closed for rehanging on 1 August 2013. The rear courtyard's southwest corner has a well pavilion.
