During the unrest, the cemetery was destroyed and later restored. Tang Yin's tomb includes leisure thatched cottage, Liurutang, Mengmo Hall, tomb area, Shinto and memorial archway. The whole cemetery is patchwork and elegant in silence. The tombstone is engraved with "Tomb of Tang Jieyuan".

After coming to the thatched cottage, it was changed into a teahouse. Tang Yin loved tea all his life and had an indissoluble bond with it. He wrote many tea poems and left some excellent tea paintings, such as The Picture of Qin Dynasty, Tea Tasting Picture and Shi Ming Picture. Mengmo Hall displays Tang Yin's life story.
