Top 4: Marshal Zhang's Mansion（张氏帅府）

Marshal Zhang's Mansion, located in central Shenyang City, is the former residence of Zhuang Zuolin (chief of the Fengtian-faction Warlords) and his son Zhang Xueliang (a statesman of great achievements). Built in 1914, the mansion was converted into a museum in 2002.

Covering an area of 3.6 hectares, this mansion is a large architectural complex, composed of an east courtyard, middle courtyard, west courtyard and several buildings outside. The traditional Chinese-style courtyard houses and gardens are well combined with the European-style Daqing Building, Bianye Bank and Honglou buildings. Xiaoqing Building and the Building of Miss Zhaosi make for a sound combination of Chinese and Western features.

The mansion has been listed as an outstanding architectural complex in modern China.

Admission: 60 yuan (US$9.81)/ person
