Mandarin's House(Chinese:鄭家大屋) is a historic residential complex in Macau.It was the residence and family home of the late Qing theoretician and reformist Zheng Guanying (1842-1921). He completed his masterpiece of ''Shengshi Weiyan (Words of Warning in Times of Prosperity)'' in the house. Mandarin's House occupies an area of 4000m2, which is amongst the largest family houses in Macau.〔http://www.macauholiday.com/mandarin-house.html〕 ==History== Mandarin’s House was built in 1869(Eighth year of the reign of Emperor Tongzhi) by Zheng Guanyin's father Zheng Wenrui. Zheng Guanying and his brothers gradually enlarged the complex since. It was built largely in Cantonese style but is noted for its fusion of western architectural elements. Between the 1950s and 1960s, the Zheng family gradually moved out and the house was then rented out. There were at once more than 300 tenants living inside the complex, resulting in poor living conditions. The government overtook the complex in 2001. In 2005, the house was listed,among 21 others,as the Historic Centre of Macau,a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mandarin's House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
