Zheng's Family House (Mandarin's House) was the home of Zheng Guanying (1842 - 1922). Zheng Guanying was a famous and successful literacy and industrialist in China. This house was built in 1869 by his father. It is just located in front of Lilau Square. According to the information in Wikipedia, Mr. Zheng Guanying usually discussed and studied politics with Dr. Sun Yat-sen in this house when Dr. Sun studied in Hong Kong. The Zheng's Family House was handed over to Macau Government in July, 2001. After the eight years conservation work and decorations, the house has been opening to public from February 2010.

The whole area of Zheng's Family House is about 4000 square metres. The total length of it is 120 metres. After I visited this house, I could say that it is not just a house, but also a series of building. The series of building is included entrance gatehouse, back gatehouse, Ronglu Hallway, Wenchang Hall, Yuqing Mansion, Jishan Mansion as well as many courtyards.

Although the Zheng's Family House is in Macau Peninsula, I put this gallery out of it. This is because it is the representative of living style of South Chinese Tycoon. Besides that, it allows visitors to access various parts of the house. Therefore, I have taken many photos in there and understood more about it. At last, it is a recommended historical place for sight seeing.
