Address: No.30 Weiran Hutong, Mulan Street, Xicheng District, Beijing

Walking into the gate of the site of the Jing Bao Office, visitors can see four bold characters "Tie Jian La Shou" immediately, telling visitors about Shao Piaoping's life belief and practice. The former residence is a two-story building with a combination of Chinese and Western elements. Above the front door, three characters "Jing Bao Guan" (Jing Bao Office) were inscribed by Shao Piaoping. The building towards the west is somewhat dilapidated somewhat. We can only consider the past years from the old window lattice and mottled stone columns. There is also a bronze statue of Shao Piaoping, for visitors to pay respects.
