About
Mukden Palace (pinyin: Shèngjīng Gōngdiàn), or Shenyang Imperial Palace (pinyin: Shěnyáng Gùgōng), is the former palace of the Later Jin dynasty and the early Qing dynasty. It was built in 1625, and the first three Qing emperors lived there from 1625 to 1644. Since the collapse of imperial rule in China, the palace has been converted to a museum that now lies in the center of Shenyang, Liaoning.
