It has nine rooms in front of and behind, surrounded by walls and facing south. The East and west walls are covered with climbing tiger vines. The breeze blows and the green waves ripple with elegant charm. The two items above the main entrance are particularly eye-catching: one is the four characters "Zhongjing Jiasheng" inscribed by Mingshan master, the late vice president of China Buddhist Association and the former director of Dinghui temple in Jiaoshan, which is vigorous and solemn. Zhongjing, namely Zhang Zhongjing, is a famous physician in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He practiced medicine all his life and put people first. He wrote the famous medical book treatise on Febrile Diseases and miscellaneous diseases, and then compiled treatise on Febrile Diseases and synopsis of golden chamber, which is the first work of TCM therapeutics. Zhang Yunpeng practised traditional Chinese medicine for three generations. He shares the same surname with Zhang Zhongjing. His medical pulse is closely related to his family name.

The garden in the south of the Yangtze River is full of ancient color, fragrance and tranquility. The theme of "listening to the rain" above the full moon gate on the west side of the courtyard and the setting of the landscape of "listening to the banana" in the courtyard naturally form a poetic and picturesque realm of visual and auditory synesthesia.

Profile

Zhang Yunpeng (1900-1958), also known as Yiyuan, is a famous doctor in Zhenjiang.

Zhang Yunpeng is a descendant of Zhang Yushu, a bachelor and Minister of the Ministry of household affairs in the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. His father Zhang Dingchen is also a famous traditional Chinese medicine. He has a high reputation in Jiangnan. Zhang Yunpeng's son inherited his father's career, loved Qihuang's learning, was familiar with internal medicine and Gynecology, and was good at treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases. From a series of "diagnosis cases" formulated by him before and after liberation, we can often see such words as "regardless of poverty", "preferential treatment for military workers" and "70% discount for labor insurance". This kind of self-conscious benevolence is exactly the development of the fine traditional spirit of Confucian doctors in China. In the Qing Dynasty, the he family in Jingkou of Zhenjiang area and the Chu family in the Confucian forest of Jintan pursued the medical ethics principle of "taking dunben and Chongshi as the study, and helping others and saving the world as the heart", which combined the treatment of diseases with loving others, hometown and patriotism, so as to achieve the realm of "good medicine is good appearance, living people is living country".

While practicing medicine with benevolence, Zhang Yunpeng also studied medical skills assiduously. He once wrote thirteen treatises on disease differentiation of pestilence, which is highly respected by the medical and cultural circles. During the period of the Republic of China and the early liberation, he was a member of the medical improvement association of the central national medical college, a member of the Jiangsu Provincial Cultural Movement Committee, a member of the central national medical college, a member of the Jiangsu Branch of the central national medical college, a member of the innovation Movement Committee of the Jiangsu Provincial Association of traditional Chinese medicine teachers, and a member of the Sino Soviet Friendship Association. His deeds were included in the complete collection of contemporary Chinese senior doctors and the dictionary of Chinese experts and celebrities A dictionary of big people.
