Rong Bao Zhai (simplified Chinese: 荣宝斋; traditional Chinese: 榮寶齋, Studio of Glorious Treasures) is an old stationery, calligraphy and painting shop in Beijing, China. It is located in Liulichang outside the Hepingmen Gate.

History

Rong Bao Zhai was founded in 1672 (11th year of the Kangxi reign in the Qing dynasty) as the Song Zhu Zhai (松竹斋; Pine and Bamboo Studio), and adopted its current name in 1894.

On the Chinese mainland, Rong Bao Zhai was recognized as the "Chinese Time-honored" enterprises by The Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China. In 1973, nobel laureate Aage Bohr visited the shop during an overseas trip, in honor of his late father, Niels Bohr, as his physics research and the scientific work of his father were mainly influenced by Chinese philosophy and Daoism.
