	TIMEasia.com \| Visions of China: Zhongnanhai \| 9/27/99
		In early 1949 Zhou Enlai, the new government's Premier, established himself in the old municipal government headquarters in Zhongnanhai and oversaw the repair of the compound's dilapidated buildings and the clearing of its silted lakes.
		Zhongnanhai, which translates as the Central and Southern Seas, is also known as the Sea Palaces or, to the Western media, "China's Kremlin." It forms the southern precinct of a chain of lakes and a garden-palace complex.
		To "be called to Zhongnanhai" is an expression with powerful resonance among advisers on the make even today.

	Zhongnanhai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zhongnanhai attained political significance during the Republic of China era, when the Beiyang Government under Yuan Shikai placed its headquarters in the Zhongnanhai compound from 1911.
		Zhongnanhai served as a government centre again since the early days of the People's Republic of China, founded in 1949, which built many of the structures in the compound.
		Since Zhongnanhai became the central government compound, it has been mostly inaccessible to the general public in the same way the Forbidden City was during the imperial era.

		Zhongnanhai (Chinese: 中南海; Hanyu Pinyin: Zhōngnánhăi) is a complex of buildings in Beijing, China which serves as the central headquarters for the Communist Party of China and the government of the People's Republic of China.
		Zhongnanhai, in an example of metonymy, is synonymous with the leadership and government administration of the People's Republic of China (as the White House, for instance, refers to the U.S. President).
		Zhongnanhai is the southern part of a chain of lakes and a garden-palace complex.

	Zhongnanhai (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		'''Zhongnanhai''' ({{zh-cpc=中南海p=Zhōngnánhăi}}) is a complex of buildings in Beijing, China which serves as the central headquarters for the Communist Party of China and the government of the People's Republic of China.
		Zhongnanhai has served as a government center since the early days of the People's Republic of China, founded in 1949, which built many of the structures in what had been an imperial leisure garden containing a series of lakes in a walled, parklike setting.
		Chinese maps of Beijing show Zhongnanhai as an insignificant green area with a waterbody; in contrast, the municipal government, however, is shown significantly with a red star.
