The Baicao Garden is located behind Lu Xun’s former residence, covering an area of ??nearly 2,000 square meters. It is the vegetable garden of the Zhou family in Xintaimen. Lu Xun often played here when he was a child. When he became an adult, he wrote "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore". He recalled in a special article that the mud wall roots and stone wells mentioned in the article are still well preserved. After the Baicao Garden and the Zhou family's Xintaimen property changed hands, the garden basically maintained its original appearance except for the changes at the north and south ends.
Sanwei Bookstore was a prestigious private school in Shaoxing City at that time. Lu Xun studied here from the age of 12 to 17. Lu Xun's seat was originally under the south wall of the bookstore. Because people often came in and out of the back garden and interfered with his study, he asked the teacher to change the seat and move the seat to the northeast corner. Lu Xun used a hardwood desk with two drawers. There was a one-inch square "Zhao" on the right side of the desk, which Lu Xun carved at that time. Once, Lu Xun was late for some reason and was severely criticized by his husband, so he carved the word "Morning" to encourage himself.
Xianheng Hotel was opened in the Jiawu Year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1894). It was a small hotel opened by Lu Xun's uncle Zhou Zhongxiang and others in Dongchang Fangkou.
