吕府, Historical residence in Shaoxing, China

Lü Fu is a Ming dynasty residence at 169 Xinhe Nong in the Yuecheng district of Shaoxing, built for Lü Ben, Minister of Rites during the Jiajing era. It covers about 20,000 square metres and faces south, with three longitudinal and five transverse axes forming thirteen courtyards. All buildings have flush gable roofs and their components carry little carving.

The Lu Mansion was the residence of Lü Ben, Minister of Rites during the Jiajing era of the Ming dynasty. The sources give two construction dates: the Jiajing period and the Wanli period, both Ming. It was listed in 2001 as a Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level (fifth batch).

The mansion is named after Lü Ben, a Minister of Rites during the Jiajing era, not a poet. Its plain hard-gable halls, with few carved components, show how a high Ming official's household was housed rather than any literary tradition.

The mansion stands at No. 169 Xinhe Nong in the Yuecheng district of Shaoxing, entered from the south. Its thirteen courtyards are laid out on three north–south and five east–west axes, so a visitor can follow the central axis and then work outward. The halls are single-storey with hard-gable roofs and few carved details.

The mansion was built for Lü Ben, Minister of Rites under the Jiajing Emperor, and covers about 20,000 square metres. Its thirteen courtyards are laid out on three north-south and five east-west axes, and the buildings are hard-gable (yingshan) style with almost no carved ornament — look for the plain timber brackets rather than decoration.
