Zhongnanhai(Chinese:Trung Nam Hải) is a compound that houses the offices of and serves as a residence for the leadership of theChinese Communist Party(CCP) and theState Council.It was a former imperial garden, and is located adjacent to theForbidden PalaceinBeijing.The termZhongnanhaiis often used as ametonymfor China's central government and its leadership at large.

Thestate leaders,including the president, general secretary of the CCP, and other top party and stateleadership figurescarry out many of their day-to-day administrative activities inside the compound, such as meetings with foreign dignitaries.China Central Television(CCTV) frequently shows footage of meetings inside the compound, but limits its coverage largely to views of the interior of buildings. Though numerous maps of the complex exist from before thefounding of the People's Republic of China,the interior layout of Zhongnanhai has been altered significantly since then, including a wave of major renovations in the 1970s. Today many buildings share the names of older, pre-PRC structures, but have completely changed in layout and purpose. The complex is divided into two main sections, reflecting the parallel authority of the highest level of state and party institutions in the country. Northern Zhongnanhai is used as the headquarters of the State Council and includes the offices of its senior most leaders as well as its principal meeting rooms. Southern Zhongnanhai is the headquarters of theCCP Central Committee,includingits staffand its highest level coordinating institutions, such as theStanding Committee,PolitburoandSecretariat.

The current basic outline of Zhongnanhai emerged during theMing dynastywhen theYongle Emperorbegan a project to subdivide and reclaim land aroundTaiye Lakein order to create a garden retreat. By the lateQing dynasty,Zhongnanhai was used as the de facto center of government, withEmpress Dowager Cixiand laterPrince Regent Chunbuilding residences there instead of the Forbidden City. After the establishment of theRepublic of China,the newpresident,Yuan Shikairemodeled Zhongnanhai to become the formal center of what would become known as theBeiyang Government.In 1949,CCP ChairmanMao Zedongmoved into the complex after the establishment of the People's Republic of China. Mao received many important foreign leaders in Zhongnanhai, includingNikita Khrushchev,Che Guevara,Richard Nixon,Georges Pompidou,Kakuei TanakaandZulfikar Ali Bhutto,among others.[2][3]Mao's favorite places in Zhongnanhai were theLibrary of Chrysanthemum Fragrance(his personal residence, filled with bookshelves) and thePoolside House,next to the largeindoor swimming pool,where he would spend much of the day swimming or reading books and reports by the pool. After Mao's death, the Chrysanthemum Library along with many of his belongings was preserved as a museum which is no longer accessible to the general public.

The name of the Zhongnanhai complex, immediately west of theForbidden City,means "Central and Southern Seas" referring to two lakes, theCentral Sea( trung hải ) andSouthern Sea( Nam Hải ), within the compound; it is sometimes translated as "Sea Palaces".[citation needed]The two lakes were part of a series of projects carried out during the construction of theImperial City.[citation needed]The corresponding "Northern Sea", or "Beihai" ( Bắc Hải ) to the north is now apublic park.The interconnected Northern, Central and Southern Seas are jointly called theTaiye Lake( hồ Thái Dịch ); adjacentShichahai( Thập Sát Hải,lit. 'Sea with Ten Temples') is connected to Beihai through Qianhai.

The Taiye Lake originally formed the core of an imperial garden calledWestern Park(Xiyuan;Tây Uyển ) orWestern Court(Xinei;Tây nội;Tây nội), with parklands on the shores, enclosed by a red wall in the western part of the Imperial City. Most of the pavilions, shrines, and temples survive from this period. Whereas the Northern Sea had a religious focus, the shores of Central and Southern Seas were dotted with a number of worldly palaces.[4]

History

[edit]

See also:Taiye Lake

During theJin dynasty(1115–1235),Emperor Zhangzong of Jinbuilt the northern lake in 1189.[clarification needed]The northern section of Zhongnanhai was the original Taiye Lake,[citation needed]with an attached palace called the "Palace of Great Peace" (Daninggong). During theYuan dynasty,which lasted from 1271 to 1368, Taiye Lake was included within the Imperial City. It was also expanded, covering approximately the area occupied by the Northern and Central Seas today. Three new palaces were built around the lake.[citation needed]

After theMing dynastymoved its capital toBeijingin 1403 by order of theYongle Emperor,construction of the now extantImperial Palacebegan in 1406. The new Ming palace was built to the south of the Yuan dynastic palace, as a result, a new Southern Sea was dug to the south of the existing lake. The excavated soil, together with that from the construction of the palace moat, was piled up to formJingshan,a hill to the north of the Forbidden City. At this time, the three lakes were connected through channels and collectively called the Taiye Lake,[1]part of the extensive royal park calledXiyuan( Tây Uyển,Western Park) that extended from the western wall of theImperial Cityto the western wall of the Forbidden City.[5]In the middle period of the Ming dynasty,Zhengde EmperorandJiajing Emperorbuilt many more palaces, Taoist temples and pavilions around the lakes and spent more time here rather than in the Forbidden City.[citation needed]

After theQing dynastyestablished its capital in Beijing, the government reduced the size of Xiyuan to the area centered around the three lakes enclosed by a small wall, portions of which form the basis of Zhongnanhai's current boundary. During the late Qing dynasty, several gatehouses were built on both sides ofJin'ao Yudong Bridge[Chinese Wikipedia],giving Zhongnanhai andBeihai Parkseparate wall enclosures within Xiyuan.[6]Several successive emperors built pavilions and houses along the lakeshores of Zhongnanhai, where they would carry out government duties in the summer. During the reign of theEmpress Dowager Cixi,both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor would often live in the Zhongnanhai compound, traveling to the Forbidden City only for ceremonial duties.[citation needed]

During theBoxer Rebellionof 1899–1901, allied troops occupied Zhongnanhai. Almost all artifacts and decorations in the compound were looted. Later, theEight-Nation Alliancecommander also lived in Zhongnanhai. WhenPuyiwas crowned Emperor, his father as the Prince Regent lived for a short time in the compound.[7]

Zhongnanhai continued to be politically significant during the first years of theRepublic of China,as theBeiyang GovernmentunderYuan Shikaiplaced its presidential palace in the Zhongnanhai compound from 1912. This decision was made because the regime wished to house its government close to the historical center of power, the Forbidden City, even though it could not use the Forbidden City itself because the abdicated Emperor Puyi still lived there. The current main gate,Xinhua Gateor "Gate of New China", was created by Yuan Shikai. The present "gatehouse" was previously a pavilion located on the southern shore the Southern Sea, close to the southern wall. Entry to the compound was instead directly from the Forbidden City. Yuan wished to create a new entrance fromChang'an Avenue,independent of the Forbidden City. Thus the pavilion was modified to become a gatehouse, with nearby walls cut back, resulting in the angled walls near the entrance today.[1]Yuan renamed ZhongnanhaiPalace of the New China(Xinhua Palace,Chinese:Tân hoa cung) during his brief reign asEmperor of China.When the Republic of China government moved its capital toNanjing,the Zhongnanhai compound was opened to the public as a park.[8]

After the CCP'sCapture of Beijingin 1949, the party's senior leadership began plans to relocate their headquarters to the old capital, but they did not initially agree on the location of their central workplace. Mao Zedong and the other party leaders initially made their headquarters atXiangshan Park,in the city's suburbs.[citation needed]As part of the planning for the firstChinese People's Political Consultative ConferenceZhou Enlai decided that, with some modifications, Huairen Hall in Zhongnanhai would be ideal, but he did not initially recommend it during meetings to become the party headquarters. In these early months, Zhou would commute into Beijing for work. However, because of the poor quality of the roads, he would often stay at Zhongnanhai instead of traveling home in the evening. It wasYe Jianying,the interim administrator of Beijing, who ultimately recommended Zhongnanhai as the party headquarters for security reasons. Mao Zedong initially refused to move into Zhongnanhai, not wanting to be equated with an emperor. Zhou Enlai nonetheless agreed to the move, as did the majority of thePolitburo.Since then, Zhongnanhai has served as the principal center of government in thePeople's Republic of China.[9][10]

When the CCP leaders first moved into the compound, many of the buildings were dilapidated and gardens overgrown from years of neglect. Zhongnanhai also lacked either a modern administrative office complex or a purpose-built auditorium for government meetings. These deficiencies prompted the construction ofWest Buildingcompound and the complete remodeling ofHuairen Hallby 1954, along with numerous other architectural changes. Early party and state laters were assigned residences in Zhongnanhai on an ad hoc basis, often using houses built for servants of the Qing court, or by repurposing buildings intended for other purposes.

In contemporary times

[edit]
TheHall of Purple Light(Ziguang Ge) today, used for state receptions.

Since Zhongnanhai became the central government compound, it has been mostly inaccessible to the general public. The exception to this was during the years of relative freedom following the end of theCultural Revolution,when the compound was open to members of the public, who could obtain tickets to visit the compound from relevant government authorities. Following the political turmoil that culminated in the1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre,security was greatly increased. Access has now been closed to the general public, with numerous plain clothed military personnel patrolling the area on foot. However, cars are not strictly prohibited from stopping on stretches of adjacent roadway and cabs are allowed to stop except during important conferences or events.[11]Chinese maps of Beijing show Zhongnanhai as an insignificant green area with a water body; in contrast, the municipal government, however, is shown significantly with a red star.

The most important entrance to the compound is the southern one at Xinhuamen (Xinhua Gate, or "Gate of New China" ), surrounded by two slogans: "long live the great Chinese Communist Party" and "long live the invincibleMao Zedong Thought."The view behind the entrance is shielded by a traditional screen wall with the slogan"Serve the People",written in the handwriting of Mao Zedong. The Xinhuamen entrance lies on the north side of West Chang'an Avenue.[1]

Zhongnanhai is considered thede jureresidence of the CCPPolitburo Standing Committeemembers and other senior leaders for electoral purposes.[12]Though it serves as their formal residence, many senior party leaders do not actually live in Zhongnanhai, preferring to live in homes elsewhere in the city.[11]Several more recent leaders, such as then General Secretary andparamount leaderHu Jintao reportedly chose to live in theJade Spring Hillcompound in western Beijing due to overcrowding inside Zhongnanhai.[13]China's current leader Xi Jinping also has a home in Jade Spring Hill.[14]There continues to be no standardized system for awarding certain houses to leaders of a certain rank in Zhongnanhai. After a senior leader's death, their spouse is often permitted to stay in the house indefinitely.[15]Several of these houses were occupied by the families of their original post-revolution residents into the 1990s.

Central Sea

[edit]

The buildings around theCentral Sea(Chinese:Trung hải) constitute the headquarters of the State Council of the People's Republic of China and its affiliate institutions, including the offices of thepremierand thevice premiersas well as theState Council General Office.Important guests, both foreign and domestic, are typically received here in the northern half of Zhongnanhai. This area is also known as theNorth District(Chinese:Bắc khu).[16]

Regent Palace

[edit]

The originalRegent Palace(Nhiếp Chính Vương phủ;Nhiếp Chính Vương phủ) was a largesiheyuan-style mansion that took up most of the northwestern corner of Zhongnanhai. Though most of the building no longer exists, it is now the site of the principal meeting areas and offices of the State Council. The large three story building that occupies much the south western area of the former Regent Palace is the location of theState Council Office Secretariat,which facilitates the State Council'splenary sessions.[17]Altogether, the State Council possesses a total of six numbered meeting rooms which are used to convene conferences and policymaking sessions. Conference rooms one and two are located on either side of a thirty-meter corridor which is used for informational exhibits and displays relevant to State Council activities. This corridor is located at the south end of the former Regent Palace area.[18][19]Both the full State Council and the weekly meetings of the State Council Standing Committee are convened in conference room number one.[20]

During the Ming dynasty, the Jiajing Emperor built Wanshou Palace in this area as his main living palace within Zhongnanhai. Nothing remained of this palace by the late Qing era, however. The building that came to be known as Regent Palace took its name from Puyi's regentZaifeng, Prince Chun.Prince Chun was given the land to build his palace here in 1909, though the building was not completed by the time the Qing dynasty ended in 1911. Under the Republic of China, the building was initially the location of theprime minister's office and the meeting place of thecabinet.In 1918, PresidentXu Shichangswitched thepresident's residence and the prime minister's office, relocating his residence to Regent Palace, while the prime minister and Cabinet moved toDianxu Hallin the Garden of Abundant Beneficence.[21]When Huairen Hall became the Presidential residence in 1923, Regent Palace became the location of the army and naval department.

After 1949, the People's Republic of China again used the building as the headquarters of the premier and the State Council. Though the building was beginning to show its age at the time, initially Premier Zhou Enlai resisted renovation efforts citing a commitment to fiscal austerity. During a massive renovation of Zhongnanhai in the late 1970s, plans were made to modernize Regent palace as well. It was found, however, that the quality of the building was very poor, the foundations were loose and the gaps between the wooden columns were filled with broken bricks. As a result, the upper and entrance halls were torn down and rebuilt completely. The location where these halls once stood is currently the location of several of the State Council's conference rooms.[22]

West Flower Hall

[edit]
A replica of West Flower Hall built in Tianjin

Located in the northwestern corner of Zhongnanhai,West Flower Hall(Tây phòng khách;Tây phòng khách) was constructed as the living quarters to Regent Palace. West Flower Hall hence served as Premier Zhou Enlai's personal residence. The building has two courtyards. The front courtyard was where Zhou would meet and dine with foreign guests, while the back courtyard included Zhou's personal office, bedroom and meeting rooms. After Zhou's death, his wifeDeng Yingchaocontinued to live here until 1990. Immediately adjoining to West Flower Hall is the slightly smallerEast Flower Hall(Đông phòng khách), which became the residence of Vice PremierLi Xiannianin the mid 1950s.[23]East Flower Hall once had arockerycourtyard that was the location of one of the State Council's conference rooms during the Zhou Enlai era.[24]

During the large scale demolition and redevelopment of Regent Palace,Wang Dong xingbuilt a large house adjacent to both West and East Flower Halls for Paramount LeaderHua Guofeng.When Hua Guofeng was forced from power, he exchanged this house with Li Xiannian and moved to Li Xiannian's temporary residence outside of Zhongnanhai. Li Xiannian and his family subsequently lived here through his presidency until his death, after which, his wifeLin Jiameicontinued to occupy the residence. In 1996,Li Pengattempted to claim West Flower Hall as his post premiership residence. Li Peng was motivated in part by the relationship he had with Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao as their foster son. Li Peng's efforts were unsuccessful, however, and West Flower Hall subsequently became part of theNorth Courtyard Core(Bắc viện trung tâm) residence assigned to Lin Jiamei. Lin Jiamei was reportedly still living here as late as 2014.[25][26]

Premier's Office

[edit]

The modern workplace of the premier and the vice premiers of the State Council, thePremier's Office(Tổng lý văn phòng) was built during the large scale renovation of Regent Palace in the 1970s. Unlike the offices of CCP officials in theWest Building Compound,which are assigned to specific individuals and do not necessarily change if the individual loses their title or role, the offices of the premier and vice premier are assigned specifically to the incumbent holders of those positions and their occupants must move out when their term ends. The premier's office does not have a front gate and courtyard like other buildings in the former Regent Palace area, instead featuring a covered access ramp.[27][28]Immediately to the south is a building that serves as the headquarters for theState Council General Office.[29]

Fourth Conference Room

[edit]

TheFourth Conference Room(Đệ tứ phòng họp) houses a conference room of the State Council. It is used for meetings between State Council officials and specially invited persons who are often not affiliated with the government. There is a large traditional Chinese gate and courtyard in front of the fourth conference room that is used for photo opportunities between State Council officials and their guests. In Regent Palace's original configuration as built by Prince Chun, the area where the fourth conference room is located was known asYin'an Hall(Bạc an điện;Bạc an điện).[18]The Fourth Conference Room was last rebuilt in 2003.[30]

Ziguang Hall

[edit]
Ziguang Hall, circa 1879

Literally translated asHall of Purple Light(Ziguangge;Ánh sáng tím các;Ánh sáng tím các),Ziguang Hallis a two-storey pavilion located on the northern west bank of the Central Sea. Immediately behind Ziguang Hall is another pavilion calledWucheng Hall(Võ thành điện) which connects to Ziguang Hall to form a courtyard. In the Ming dynasty, it was originally a platform built by theZhengde Emperorfor military exercise. His successor, theJiajing Emperor,built Ziguang Hall here as a replacement for the platform. The building was rebuilt during the Qing dynasty by theKangxi Emperor,who would use the location to inspect his bodyguards. During the reign of theQianlong Emperorthe building was used to display battle wall charts and seized weapons. The building was also known as the Hall of Barbarian Tributes and was used to receive tribute missions to the Emperor. In 1873 and 1891, the emperorsTongzhiandGuangxu,respectively, received envoys from the foreign legations in Beijing, in the hall. After 1949 the building was occasionally used for dances.[31]A large modern conference area was later built on the building's western side. Ziguang Hall is used today as the main reception area in Zhongnanhai for meeting with foreign diplomats and conducting talks with world leaders. Wucheng Hall is often used for photo opportunities in which a Chinese leader will be pictured sitting alongside their visiting counterpart.[32]

TheState Council Auditorium(Quốc Vụ Viện tiểu lễ đường) is connected to the western side of Ziguang Hall. In the early years after 1949, the State Council Auditorium was used as a movie theatre which held showings several times a week. The building also formerly served as the canteen for State Council staff.[33]This auditorium was updated to its present form in 1979 and is primarily used for ceremonies and conferences on specific policy issues.[34]The plenary sessions of the full State Council are also occasionally convened here as well.[35]

Immediately adjacent to Ziguang Hall are a variety of other institutions and facilities such as theState Council Research Officeand the Zhongnanhai north district's canteen.[36][37][28]Between 2003 and 2013, there was also a roughly 300-square-meter supermarket store belonging to the Sichuan-based Hongqi chain located near Ziguang Hall.[38]

Tennis Court

[edit]

Initial plans to build an indoor tennis court in the State Council section of Zhongnanhai were made in the late 1980s. At the time China was receiving a significant influx of new diplomatic delegations on international exchange trips. Feeling that the facilities for hosting these diplomats at Ziguang Hall at the time were inadequate, some officials proposed that a guest lounge and tennis court be built nearby. The proposal for an indoor tennis court was, at the time, vetoed by Vice PremierTian Jiyun.[39]In spite of this initial resistance, an outdoor tennis court was built in Zhongnanhai by the early 2000s.[40]In 2006, the building around the tennis court was rebuilt and modernized.[41]Immediately to the north of the tennis court is the Zhongnanhai clinic.[42]

Indoor Pool

[edit]

An indoor swimming pool was built in 1955 by the Urban Construction and Design Institute. Mao Zedong's wifeJiang Qingreportedly proposed the building's construction during Mao's absence in order to secure its approval. Mao nonetheless used the pool because it was more convenient than traveling to the pool atTsinghua University.Mao often stayed and worked at the pool for long periods of time. In 1958, Mao met with SovietGeneral SecretaryNikita Khrushchevat the pool. During the time when Mao lived nearby at Poolside House, the indoor swimming pool was remodeled and enlarged under the supervision of Zhongnanhai's head engineer Tian Genggui. Today the pool is used by senior party leaders and also contains a workout area.[43]

Poolside House

[edit]

The Zhongnanhai outdoor swimming pool was built in 1933 as a public–private partnership when Zhongnanhai was a public park. Tickets were sold to Beijing citizens each year from May to August. From 1946 to 1949, it was difficult to operate the pool profitably due tohigh inflation.After Zhongnanhai was taken over for the exclusive use of the government, a poolside house was built next to the swimming pool as a residence for Mao Zedong. It was initially built for practical reasons, as Mao would frequently spend much of the day either swimming in the pool or reading political and historical books and reports from government officials by the pool's side. Therefore, a reception room, a bedroom and a study with Mao's favorite books were built, thus creating the Poolside House which allowed Mao to be permanently close to the swimming pool.[44]Eventually, among Zhongnanhai staff, the phrase "you are wanted at the swimming pool" meant that they were ordered to immediately report to Mao.[44]

Mao permanently left theChrysanthemum Libraryand moved into the Poolside House in 1966, at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution. Especially in his later years, the Poolside House would be the place for visiting foreign leaders to see Mao. This was the case forRichard NixonandKakuei Tanaka.[44]After Mao's death in 1976, Zhou Enlai's wife Deng Yingchao briefly lived at poolside house during the extensive redevelopment of the Regent Palace area before returning to West Flower Hall.[45]During the1989 Tiananmen Square Protests,PresidentYang Shangkunmoved into Zhongnanhai and lived at Poolside House due to security concerns created by the protesters.[46]

Yanqing House

[edit]

Yanqing House(Duyên Khánh lâu;Duyên Khánh lâu), as well as several other adjoining buildings, was built during the Beiyang Government around 1922. During his time as de facto ruler of the Beiyang Government,Cao Kunused Yanqing House as his workplace while living in nearby Huairen Hall. His wives and concubines lived in several of the adjoining buildings. After Cao Kun was overthrown in 1924, he was imprisoned in Yanqing House for two years. The original Yanqing House was ultimately destroyed in a fire in 1947.[47]TheKMTmilitary commander ofBeiping,Fu Zuoyi,subsequently built a series of small bungalows in this location to house military and political personnel.[48]By the early 2000s, a one-story building with two courtyards existed on the former site of Yanqing House. The building was sometimes referred to asYanqingzhai(Duyên Khánh trai).[citation needed]

Wan Shan Temple

[edit]

Also known in English[citation needed]asThousand Benevolence Hall(Vạn thiện điện;Vạn thiện điện),Wan Shanis aBuddhist Templelocated on the eastern bank of the Central Sea. Originally known asChongzhi Hall,the temple was built by the Qing dynasty'sShunzhi Emperor.[citation needed]Statues of the Buddha line the hall. Behind the temple isThousand Sage Hall,which includes a dome and a seven-story pagoda.[1]

Water Clouds Pavilion

[edit]

Located on an island in the Central Sea, theWater Clouds Pavilioncontains a stele engraved by the Qianlong Emperor reading "Autumn Wind on the Taiye Lake".[1]

Southern Sea

[edit]

TheSouthern Sea(Nanhai,Nam Hải) compound is the headquarters of the CCP, including the office of the general secretary and the offices of the staff of theCentral Committee General Office.Southern Zhongnanhai also includes the meeting places for the Politburo,Standing CommitteeandSecretariat.This area is also known as theSouth District(Chinese:Nam khu).[16]

Huairen Hall

[edit]
Huairen Hall in 1954
Main article:Huairen Hall

Huairen Hall(Hoài nhân đường;Hoài nhân đường;'Hall of Cherished Compassion') is a two-story Chinese-style[clarification needed]hall that is used by the CCP as the main meeting place for the Politburo and as an alternate meeting place for the Politburo Standing Committee.[49][50]The building is also the meeting location of several of the CCP'sleading groupssuch as theFinancial and Economic Affairs Leading Groupand theLeading Group for Comprehensively Deepening Reforms.[51][52]

The building served as the daily workplace ofDowager Empress Cixi,the then de facto ruler of China, replacing theHall of Mental Cultivationin the nearby Forbidden City. After the Boxer rebellion, Huairen Hall became the headquarters of the occupying Eight Nation Alliance's commanderAlfred von Walderseeuntil the building was damaged in a fire. In 1902 Empress Cixi rebuilt Huairen Hall at a cost of five million taels of silver before ultimately dying here in 1908.[53]After the founding of the Republic of China in 1911, PresidentYuan Shikaiused the building to meet with foreign guests and to acceptNew Year's daygreetings. After Yuan's death, it was the site of his funeral. WhenCao Kunbecame president, he used Huairen Hall as his residence. After the end of the Beiyang Government Huairen Hall had no permanent use and was given to theBeijingCity Government.[8]

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the first plenary session of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) was held in Huairen Hall in September 1949. In order to serve as an audience hall for the CPPCC, an iron sheet roof was built over one of the building's courtyards. In 1952, this roof was replaced with a more permanent two-story auditorium in preparation for the Asia-Pacific Peace Conference.[54][55]The new meeting hall was then used for first session of theNational People's Congressin 1954.[56]Huairen Hall became the auditorium of the central government, often hosting various art shows and political meetings, includingCentral Committeeplenums before the construction ofJingxi Hotelin 1964.[57]

Qinzheng Hall

[edit]

Qinzheng Hall(Cần Chính Điện;Qínzhèng Diàn) is the headquarters of the Secretariat of the Chinese Communist Party and the location of the office of the party'sgeneral secretary,a title currently synonymous with theparamount leader of the country.[58]The building also includes a conference room that serves as the main meeting place for the Politburo Standing Committee.[59][60]The room that the Politburo Standing Committee meets in is referred to as thesmall meeting roomand is located along the corridor on the northern side of Qinzheng Hall.[61][62]The small meeting room is also a meeting place for the secretaries of the CPC Secretariat.[63]

The general secretary's personal office is located behind an office which, in the 1980s, served as workplace of his policy secretary. The office of the policy secretary was occupied by SecretaryBao Tongat the time, and the position and staff associated with it have since been more formalized as theOffice of the General Secretary.The policy secretary's office is, in turn, behind another office which served as a workplace for the director of the Central Committee's General Office.[64]It is partially because the head of the General Office has a workplace in front of the office suite of the general secretary that the director's position is referred to as the "Danei Zongguan"(Đại nội tổng quản), roughly translated as "the gatekeeper".[65]

In addition to the General Secretary's suite, Qinzheng Hall is also the location of the offices for all of Secretaries of the Secretariat, including theFirst Secretary of the Secretariat,who has de facto responsibility for the secretariat's day-to-day administration of the party.[66]Each secretarial suite in Qinzheng Hall has a space for receiving guests and a space for working. The General Secretary's suite is comparatively larger and has the most complete facilities in the building, including a sleeping space so that the General Secretary does not need to return to his residence when working for long periods of time.[67]There is an encryptedhotlinethat runs from Qinzheng Hall to theWhite HouseinWashington, D.C.for the purpose of conducting high level talks with American leaders.[68]

The original Qinzheng hall was built by theKangxi Emperoras the main hall of the Zhongnanhai complex, serving as theEmperor's primary living and working space in Zhongnanhai.[69]After the 1911 revolution, the building served as a venue for government conferences during both the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China. Qinzheng Hall served as the meeting place for theCentral People's Government Committee,the interim council that governed China from 1949 until the promulgation of the1954 Constitution.[70]While serving as the headquarters of the Central People's Government, Qinzheng hall was the site of the 1951Seventeen Points Agreementwhich established the terms under whichTibetwould come under the sovereignty of the People's Republic of China.[71]In the late 1970s,Wang Dong xing,the director of the Central Committee General Office, demolished Qinzheng hall and spent 6.9 million yuan intended for its reconstruction to build his own private residence. Wang's removal as head of the Central Committee General Office in 1978 prevented him from completing his plan. Ultimately, the rebuilt Qinzheng hall was inaugurated as the Secretariat's new headquarters in March 1980.[58]

Benevolence Hall

[edit]
The reception area inside Jurentang

The formerBenevolence Hall(Cư nhân đường) was a two-story western-style palace originally known as theHall of the Calm Sea(Haiyantang) during theQing dynasty.Dowager Empress Cixi had the building constructed to entertain her female guests, and also to receive foreign diplomats. After the suppression of the Boxer Rebellion,Eight Nation Alliancecommander Alfred von Waldersee moved here afterYi Luang Templewas destroyed in a fire. After the founding of the Republic of China, the building was renamed theHall of Benevolence(JurentangorJerenteng), by Yuan Shikai, who continued to use it to host visitors.[7]Benevolence Hall became the headquarters of KMT commanderLi Zongrenafter the defeat and withdrawal of the Japanese Army and later the command of post of General Fu Zuoyi before his surrender to the CCP.[47]

After 1949, the building served as the first headquarters of theCentral Military Commission(CMC) before the CMC staff relocated outside of Zhongnanhai. In 1956, the CCP Secretariat became an institution separate from the staff of theparty chairmanand required its own headquarters. The new general secretary, Deng Xiaoping, chose Benevolence Hall to house the Secretariat. During this period, the building did not undergo any significant maintenance and was finally deemed unsafe and demolished in 1964. The Secretariat offices temporarily moved to "Building C" in theWest Building Compoundbefore moving toQinzheng Hallin 1980.[72]The former location of Benevolence Hall is currently an open park area.

Four Blessing Halls

[edit]

TheFour Blessing Halls(Bốn phúc đường), which date from the time of theQianlong Emperor,line the eastern side of a narrow lane that once formed a western boundary of Zhongnanhai.[73]All four are named according to a consistent theme and are consequently known asYongfutang( Vĩnh Phúc đường ),Laifutang( tới phúc đường ),Zengfutang( tăng phúc đường ), andXifutang( tích phúc đường ). After 1949, the buildings were used as residences for several important early party officials, particularly those that did propaganda and ideological work. The PRC's firstDefense MinisterPeng Dehuailived at Yongfutang, the building closest to Huairen Hall, until being purged in 1959.[74]In the early days of the PRC, an informal school called the "Zhongnanhai Amateur University" was run out of this location for the benefit of the Central Committee's secretaries and security staff. The school still de facto exists, but in practice has merged with theBeijing Electronic Science and Technology Institute.In 1982, Yongfutang became the headquarters of the administrative office of theCentral Advisory Commission(CAC) due to the location's convenient proximity to where CAC Standing Committee meetings were held at Huairen Hall.[75][76]Laifutang was the location of a commemorativepost-funeralceremony for the late General Secretary Jiang Zemin's cremated remains.[77]

West Building Compound

[edit]

The complex of buildings known asWest Building Compound(Tây lâu đại viện) is named for its location in the southwestern corner of Zhongnanhai. The first of these buildings was built by the engineering battalion of the Central Guard Regiment from 1949 to 1951 to house workplaces and apartments for the Central Committee General Office's staff. West Building is one of the workplaces of the Director of the Central Committee General Office, in addition to Qinzheng Hall.[78]One of the original main buildings in this complex was simply calledWest Building Hall(Tây lâu đại sảnh) while the other buildings in the West Building complex were designated A, B, C, D and F. Buildings C and D were originally intended to be used as accommodations for ProvincialCommunist Party Committee Secretarieswhen they were visiting Beijing for meetings. Many of theMishusor secretarial staff assigned to support the General Office work here. As late as the 1990s, West Building Compound included a dormitory for the young workers of the Center Committee General Office.[11]The West Building includes a large kitchen and cafeteria for the General Office staff and a smaller eating area that doubles as a conference room for the use of senior leadership. The formal address of West Building Compound is 12 Fuyou Street,Xicheng District,Beijing.

After West Building was constructed, the complex became the site of the offices of theState Chairman,Premierand all stateVice Chairmenunder theCommon Programwho were also Communist Party members. When the positions of the State Chairman and Chairman of the Communist Party were separated in 1959 andLiu Shaoqiassumed the State Chairmanship, the State Chairman's workplace continued to be located in West Building. During this time, Liu Shaoqi's office was located in Building A.[79][80]Likewise,MarshalZhu De's office remained in Building B of the West Building compound when he served as singular stateVice Chairmanunder the1954 Constitution.[81]In 1962, President Liu Shaoqi presided over an extraordinary, enlarged meeting of the Politburo Standing Committee in this location, known as the "West Building Meeting". At the meeting, the party leaders discussed in significant detail the dire fiscal and economic situation in the country in the aftermath of the failure of theGreat Leap Forwardand promised to recover the agricultural sector.[82]

Between 2007 and 2008, part of the original West Building Compound was demolished to make way for a new three-story rectangular building that was completed by 2010.[83]The Central Committee General Office's physical office footprint has now expanded beyond Zhongnanhai to include several buildings on the other side of Fuyou Street from West Building as well as other buildings in the Xicheng District area.[84]The gate on Fuyou Street that Central Committee staff use to travel between buildings inside and outside of the complex is called the "Great West Gate" because it has the highest regular use of Zhongnanhai's gates.[85]

Many of the agencies directly under the supervision of the Central Committee General Office now have their formal headquarters in an annex of buildings spread out on the western side of Fuyou Street adjacent to Zhongnanhai as well as certain locations still within southern Zhongnanhai. The formal addresses of these agencies are as follows:

Garden of Abundant Beneficence

[edit]

Some of the buildings within theGarden of Abundant Beneficence(Phong trạch viên;Phong trạch viên) were built by the Kangxi Emperor of the Qing dynasty who originally used them to raisesilkworms.More buildings were later added by theQianlong Emperor,who used them as libraries and as a personal retreat. Throughout this garden, there are wooden placards at the buildings' entrances, inscribed by the Qianlong Emperor.[86]In the northwestern area of the garden is a building calledChunlianzhai(Xuân ngẫu trai;Xuân ngẫu trai) which once housed the seal of the Qianlong Emperor as well as several artworks. After the Boxer Rebellion Chunlianzhai was looted and it subsequently became a summer residence for the commander of the German contingent of the Eight Nation Alliance Army. In the early days of the People's Republic of China Chunlianzhai was used as a dance hall, where dances were held twice a week by senior party leaders.[87][88][89]

The largest building in the Garden of Abundant Beneficence isDianxu Hall,which was known asChong Ya Templeduring the Qianlong Emperor's reign,Yinian Temple(Di năm đường;Di năm đường) during theGuangxu Emperor'sreign and finally asYitingnianduring the Republic of China. During the Beiyang Government (1912–1928) of the Republic of China, the office of the president was initially located in Dianxu Hall. In 1918 President Xu Shichang switched the president's residence and the prime minister's office, relocating his residence to Regent Palace, while the prime minister instead moved to Dianxu Hall in the Garden of Abundant Beneficence. Dianxu Hall became a general purpose meeting area for CCP officials after 1949. During Mao Zedong's time as Paramount Leader, Politburo Meetings were often held in Dianxu Hall due its proximity to Mao's house.[90]Before 1980 the Politburo Standing Committee also met in one of the small conference rooms of Dianxu Hall during the times when meetings were not held in Mao's house.[91]

The Garden of Abundant Beneficence also contains Chairman Mao Zedong's first personal residence and office, which he used from 1949 to 1966, a building called theLibrary of Chrysanthemum Fragrance(Cúc hương phòng sách). The Chrysanthemum library is a courtyard-style building with four halls constructed during the time of the Kangxi Emperor to house a collection of books for the imperial family. The north hall of the Chrysanthemum library is calledZiyunxuan(Mây tía hiên) and was the site of Mao's bedroom and personal study. The east hall was the location of Mao's office and the south hall was the location ofJiang Qing'sresidence for a period of time. An air raid shelter was dug in the courtyard of Chrysanthemum library shortly after Mao moved in, but it was rarely used.[92][93]Mao relocated to a new building known as thePoolside Housein 1966 at the start of the Cultural Revolution. After Mao's death, the Chrysanthemum Library was preserved as a museum which is not accessible to the general public. Immediately to the east of the library are a series of buildings known as theWestern Eight Houses(Chinese:Tây tám sở), which served as a dormitory for Mao's personal aides and secretaries.[94]

Shuqingyuan Pavilion

[edit]

Located in the northeastern corner of the Southern Sea, theShuqingyuan Pavilion(Thục thanh viện) was built for the Qianlong Emperor as part of a small garden, similar in style to the Beihai Park. After 1959, the original building was destroyed in order to make way for the construction of a barracks and officer staff quarters forUnit 8341,the Zhongnanhai security guard regiment.[95]The formal address of Shuqingyuan Pavilion and the surrounding complex of buildings used by Unit 8341 is 81 Nanchang Street, Xicheng District, Beijing.

Building 202

[edit]

The building (202 biệt thự ) next toHuairen Hallwas constructed in 1974 as a specially reinforced earthquake shelter.[96]Before the current building was built on this location, the area to the east of Huairen Hall was the site of the homes ofDong BiwuandChen Boda.[97]Mao Zedong was relocated to Building 202 from Poolside House after the July 1976Tangshan earthquake.Mao died in this building on September 9, 1976.[98][42]During the1989 Tiananmen Square Protests,PremierLi Pengmoved into Zhongnanhai and lived in Building 202 due to the perception that he was vulnerable to attack at his residence atWanshou Road.[46][99]

Western Four Houses

[edit]

TheFour Western Houses(Tây bốn sở) were built as part of the western wing of theHuairen Hallcomplex as living quarters for eunuchs and palace maids that served Empress Dowager Cixi.[97]They are also known as Qingyuntang (Khánh vân đường). These buildings were acquired by the Peking Institute of Historic Research after the end of theBeiyang government.[100]After 1949, thePropaganda Departmentwas located here before it was eventually moved to its current headquarters on 5 West Chang'an Street.[96]The four buildings were subsequently given the designations "Courtyard No. 1" through "Courtyard No. 4" and became the residences ofLi Fuchun,Tan Zhenlin,Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yi respectively.[101]During his paramount leadership, however, Deng Xiaoping did not live in Zhongnanhai, instead living at No. 11 Miliangku Hutong (Rice Grain Depot Hutong) nearDi'anmen.Deng moved there in 1977 and lived there until his death.[102]After Chen Yi's death,Zhao Ziyanglived in Courtyard No. 4, the northernmost of the Western Four Houses during his time as General Secretary.[103][104]

[edit]

The original buildings in the area ofWanzi Gallery(Vạn tự hành lang) were built by the Qianlong Emperor in 1742 to celebrate his mother's 50th birthday.

During his presidency, Liu Shaoqi moved to a building in this area calledFuluju(Phúc lộc cư) in 1963. After Liu was denounced and purged, both the original Wanzi Gallery and Fuluju were demolished during the Cultural Revolution.[80]Wanzi Gallery was later reconstructed and Mao's wife Jiang Qing lived in what was then called Building No. 201 during the height of the power of the Gang of Four. This building was also known as the Spring Lotus Chamber.[105][106]

Yingtai Island

[edit]
Yingtai Island sometime before 1949

Located in the Southern Sea, the artificialYingtai Island(Doanh đài;Doanh đài) was completed in 1421 by MingEmperor Yongleafter he relocated his capital to Beijing. The island was given its current name by QingEmperor Shunzhiin 1655. Yingtai Island is connected with the shore via a stone bridge. Due to a slope of elevation on the island, the main temple in the north is a single-story building while in the south there exists a two-story pavilion calledPenglai Pavilion.There are two temples to the north ofHanyuan Temple,Qingyun Templeto the east andJing xing Templeto the west. In July 1681, the Kangxi Emperor held the "Yingtai hearings" on the development of a national strategy to put down civil strife. Dowager Empress Cixi imprisonedEmperor Guangxuat Hanyuan Temple on Yingtai in August 1898 after the failure of theHundred Days Reform.Emperor Guangxu was subsequently poisoned and died here in 1908.[citation needed]

Since 1949, Yingtai is used as the site of banquets and other hospitality activities.[107]According to some sources,Jiang Zeminlived in Hanyuan Temple on Yingtai Island during his time as paramount leader.[108]

Xinhua Gate

[edit]

Zhongnanhai's main entrance, theXinhua Gate(Tân hoa môn;Tân hoa môn) is located to the north ofWest Chang'an Avenue.The gate was originally built by the Qianlong Emperor in 1758 as a pavilion for one of his concubines. After the1911 Revolution,Yuan Shikai transformed the pavilion into a gate and named it "Xinhua Gate" or"New China Gate"in 1912. The slogans "Long live the great Chinese Communist Party" and "long live invincible Mao Zedong Thought" are now on the walls on both sides of Xinhua Gate. On the door is the inscription "Vì nhân dân phục vụ"("serve the people") in Mao Zedong's handwriting.[1]In 1959, an underground passage was built between Xinhua Gate and theGreat Hall of the People[citation needed]shortly before the construction of the latter was completed. This passage was intended to be used only by members of the Politburo Standing Committee at the time.[citation needed]
