Zhalan Cemetery (Chinese: 滕公栅栏; pinyin: ténggōng zhàlan) is a former Jesuit burial ground in Beijing. It was initially established in the late Ming dynasty for the burial of Matteo Ricci. 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.
