I explain, there are mold on the walls and lots of dust (I'm allergic to dust-mites, acarus, I had the respiratory tract irritated). Apart this, it was perfect, the architecture is fabulous, the garden (renovated) is pretty (little pond, faux-cherry, pretty bridge) and romantic. Many of rooms talk about the history of the politic in China (that can be interesting if you have a guide, or understanding Chinese because it is not translate). The other rooms concerns the history of this place and the daily life. And the district is so amazing, an more elaborate architecture. I came for the end of Chinese new year, there were some activities, like the two-men shows in the mansion (a speciality of Tianjin) So worth-it in Tianjin ! We can visit in less than 2hour, but prepare 1h30 with the bus (the last one is at 7:30pm) and the price is 27yuan (13 for eldery person and student)…

This is a worthwhile place to visit while in Tianjin.…

Beautiful furniture, art, gardens, and courtyards give a glimpse of what life used to be like for a wealthy merchant's family. The mansion also featured an exhibit of traditional bridal attire and showed the carriage that brides rode in. It was on the outskirts of Tianjin, so expect a long drive (over 30 minutes), and we spent over an hour viewing the mansion and its various exhibits. Nice gift shop with reasonably priced souvenirs unique to Tianjin.…
