Andingmen Courtyard
Online Booking Rate: 520CNY

As a main housing style of Beijing, courtyard dwellings, where live generations of Beijing natives, are well-known to people both at home and abroad. Courtyards emerged during the Yuan Dynasty when Beijing was for the first time established as the country’s capital. Their architectural structure, which has many distinct characteristics, is typical and representative of the Chinese traditional housing construction. Though just a kind of common dwellings, the courtyards convey a profound cultural meaning since they are regarded as the carrier of Chinese traditional culture. On arriving in Beijing, a place that has a long history and rich cultures, you can feel its uniqueness simply by living in a courtyard, tasting Peking roast duck, climbing the Great Wall, listening to Beijing Opera and so on. If you are eager to know more of the city, living in a courtyard must be the best choice.

Changping Courtyard
Online Booking Rate: 800CNY

This courtyard home occupies over one English acre of land (about 700 square meters) and has 18 rooms in total with two courtyards.  It was originally built about 300 years ago during the Qin dynasty and at that time was located on the west side of the Forbidden City in Zhong Nan Hai.  This was before the Summer Palace had been built and during that time the emperor vacationed there during the summer, using this courtyard home as his summer residence. 

Seven years ago the home was moved piece-by-piece to the northern outskirts of Beijing in the town of XiaoTangShan with views of the mountains and where the air is much fresher and cleaner than in the city center.  It was rebuilt on a six-acre parcel of land where we organically grow vegetables and corn.  Each room was modernized with western-style toilets, hot and cold water, heating and air-conditioning and five large rooms have been decorated in the emperial style with classical furnishings and artwork. 

The central tea room, which separates the two courtyard gardens, serves as a dining area in the mornings where both western and Chinese style breakfasts are offered, including fresh-brewed coffee and Chinese teas.  A professional cook from Sichuan Province lives on-site and is available to prepare authentic Chinese meals for lunch and dinner in the main dining room. 

Our driver is also available daily to take guests to the local subway station or to other locations such as the Great Wall, Summer Palace, Forbidden City, shopping, etc.
