**★★★★★ Wisanu Tuntawiroon — 4 months ago
Among the many treasures of Prince Gong Mansion, the Bat Hall stands out as a chamber full of symbolism and auspicious meaning. The name comes from the Chinese word for bat, fu (蝠), which is a homophone of fu (福), meaning “good fortune.” As a result, the hall is richly decorated with bat motifs—on the beams, windows, and carved details—turning the space into a visual blessing of happiness and prosperity.
**★★★★★ Linda H — 4 years ago
It was not open to the public in the past, but now there are guides at the door to help with reservations before entering.
**★★★★★ Yaonbee Lee — 7 years ago
This is one of the ancient palaces in Beijing, although less famous outside China, rich in history.
