Been there too.

A fine building, which is essentially a podium for the instruments, which were designed by Flemish Jesuit missionary Ferdinand Verbiest. The whole complex is one of the treasures of Chinese history.

Nothing to do with the present day regime. It should be appreciated for what it is, and for those who created it.
