The Former Residence of Xue Fucheng is also called the Xues' Garden. It is the residence of Xue Fucheng, a well-known ideologist and diplomatist in late Qing Dynasty and a representative of the bourgeois reformers.

The most attractive scenic spots in the residence should be the Sedan Chair Hall and the Main Hall, which have unique paired pillars in two rows, dividing the nine-Kaijian hall into three rooms.

The Main Hall was built with brick walls and a Western-style sliding door for separation. So far, no similar structures have been found in Wuxi and even China.
