Shaoyuan

Shaoyuan (simplified Chinese: 勺园; traditional Chinese: 勺園; pinyin: Sháoyuán; literally: "Spoon Garden") is a complex of buildings within Peking University in Beijing, China. It was built as foreign student dormitories and classrooms. The original complex consisted of three buildings arranged in a horseshoe fashion around a small courtyard area. In subsequent years, Shaoyuan was expanded with the construction of more buildings next to the original courtyard.
