The Jingtang Library was founded by Fung Ping Shan. Fung Ping Shan (1860-1931) was born in Xinhui. At the age of 16, he moved to Siam (the old name of Thailand) to earn a living. After succeeding in business, Fung focused on education. In Hong Kong, he donated to the construction of the library of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the library of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. And in Xinhui, he founded the Fung Ping Shan Private School, the Woodworking School and the Ping Shan Primary School.
In 1922, Fung donated 10,000 yuan to build the library in Renshou Fang in the centre of Xinhui. He bought the Tan Mansion on Renshou Road and had it demolished to build the library. The library was completed in 1925 and opened to the public in June.
