Prince Li's Mansion

Prince Li's Mansion, referred to as Prince Li's Mansion, is located on Gennan Street, Xihuangcheng, Xicheng District, Beijing. It was the residence of the second son of Nurhachi, the second son of Qing Taizu, and one of the eight iron hat kings in the early Qing Dynasty. Later, it was the residence of Prince Ding, the eldest son of Emperor Qianlong, Yonghuang. . The palace here is not the original mansion of Dai Shan, but was built at the site chosen by Sun Jie, the son of Dai Shan, after he was sealed. In the 43rd year of Qianlong's reign (1778), the title of Prince Li was restored, and it was renamed Prince Li's Mansion. The palace is large in scale and covers a vast area. It used to be the dormitory of North China College and is now the seat of the State Council Affairs Administration. The entire palace is generally well preserved, most of the main buildings on the middle road are preserved, there are several courtyards in the north of the east road, and most of the buildings on the west road have been demolished. This sprawling mansion was coined with some terrifying legends on the Internet, and was once said to be one of the four major haunted mansions in the capital. In fact, because the palace has always been a high-walled compound, heavily guarded, and full of mystery and fear in the eyes of the common people, it has become the carrier of ghost stories.
