Since April 1963, because of inconvenience of work, age and other factors, Song Qingling no longer traveled north and south, so he took No. 46, Houhai Beiyan, Beijing, as his main residence. However, Song Qingling is still very attached to her residence in Shanghai. As long as conditions permit or on New Year's Day, she will definitely come back to live for a period of time.
