The Guo Moruo Memorial museum is situated in a traditional courtyard (Siheyuan) on the west bank of Shichahai. It was in this courtyard that Guo Moruo spent the remaining 15 years of his life. The courtyard has an east gate with a gold wooden tablet engraved by Deng Yinchao identifying the museum. The courtyard is now used as a museum, with the east and west wing-rooms being applied to showrooms of the life of Guo Moruo, renowned poet, scholar and cultured man. The other three rooms remain unchanged as display rooms of his sitting room, office and bedroom, with the peony and ginkgo that he planted in the courtyard with his wife.

He moved into the courtyard at Shichahai in November 1963, and remained there until his death in June 12 1978. formally a garden of a prince of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), the courtyard was designated as a cultural relic in 1982 on Guo's 90th anniversary, but was not opened to the public as a museum until 1988. Now, the museum stands as a reminder of the live and works of Guo, with poetry, manuscripts and the flowers that were planted during his life.China Tour Packages Including Beijing- China Best City Tours 8 Days Visits: Beijing-Xian-Shanghai
