Siheyuan, also known as Siheyuan, is a traditional high-level quadrangle-style building in China.

the Yuan Dynasty

127 1 Established the Yuan Dynasty, and Beijing became the capital to unify China. No matter from the relics or documents, the urban construction in Beijing has undergone epoch-making changes.

From the south gate to the back garden, it should be equivalent to the distance between two hutongs in Yuan Dynasty. The distance between the two hutongs in the Yuan Dynasty was about 70 meters.
