■ Yide Hotel is
situated in a quiet little blind alley just a few minutes' walk
from the main street, Nan Dajie. The guesthouse is a beautifully
renovated courtyard house built in 1736 by a wealthy merchant
during the reign of Emperor Qianlong.
■ The old residence of Hou Wangbin originally consisted of
six courtyards; No. 16 (upper yard), No. 14 (lower yard), No.
18 (study room) and No. 20 (carriage and horse yard) in Shaxiang
Street, No. 9 Xishitoupo Lane (ancestral temple) and No. 6 Xiguojia
Lane (garden).
■ All rooms have air conditioning and heating, bathroom and
large kang-style beds that are heated in winter. |

The old residence is not only indicative of the
level of ancient architecture and the lifestyle
of the original inhabitants, but also reflects a
mix of ancient politics, economy, philosophy, ethics,
culture, art as well as local lifestyles and customs.
As you enter these ancient buildings, you can begin
to absorb some of these, now distant and largely
forgotten, cultural traditions of a past society.
