Why it is worth the detour
After marrying in 1897, Liao Zhongkai and He Xiangning lived here and made a rooftop room their private retreat, naming it Shuangqing—"twofold clarity"—for themselves beneath the moon. Their quiet newlywed home preceded decades of shared revolutionary work with Sun Yat-sen and Liao's eventual assassination.
