Zhalan Cemetery
Xicheng District, China
Zhalan Cemetery (pinyin: ténggōng zhàlan) is a former Jesuit burial ground in Beijing. It is the oldest Christian cemetery in China. It was initially established in the late Ming dynasty for the burial of missionary Matteo Ricci. There are 88 Jesuit graves in the cemetery. The current setup is a restoration using original carved tombstones, following multiple episodes of desecration and turmoil during the Boxer Rebellion, the 1950s and the Cultural Revolution.
