The location of the Former Residence of Tang Yin (唐寅故居), near the historic Taohuawu area, reflects the scholar's later life—a period of devotion to painting and poetry following a turbulent career. The environment of the courtyard complex is peaceful and reflective, providing a sense of the tranquil, scholarly pursuits that defined Tang Yin's artistry.
The atmosphere is one of quiet admiration for the scholar's genius, contrasting the calm setting with the legendary stories of his "trickster" persona in Chinese folklore. It’s a beautifully curated space that encourages visitors to contemplate the fusion of art and unconventional living that defined Tang Bohu (唐伯虎)'s character.
