Facilities of the Academy

Achieving a balance in conservation, revitalization, and technology, the Academy has given a new life to this large hundred-year-old historical compound. The entire complex has been classified as “Grade III historical building”. After renovation and reinforcement, each building has been redesigned and laid out for its new usage but has retained as much as possible its original structure and style. Starting from 2012, the dozens of buildings located in High, Middle, and Low Zones have been open to the public one after another. In early 2014, Heritage Lodge officially began to operate. In June 2014, the Academy was formally open.

A wide range of facilities in the compound are available for rent by institutions and organizations. For further information, please download the venue booking handbook or contact us by telephone at 2100 2828.
