# Qihai Residence - Zhongshan District, Taipei City

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Qi Hai Residence is located in the Qi Hai Cultural Park in Dazhi. It was the official residence of Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo during his lifetime. The residence was named "Qi Hai" because the code name of the guard room was "Qi Hai". There is a white exhibition hall at the entrance to the residence that introduces Mr. Jingguo's life. You need to make an appointment for a visiting time before entering the hall. After the tour, we were guided to Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo’s residence. After the explanation, you will enter the interior and find that photography is prohibited. At the entrance of the stairs, there is a photo of Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo sitting on a chair, which is a popular place for tourists to take photos. The interior of the house is not very big, but the simple furnishings show his simple and frugal lifestyle. The courtyard in front of the house is spacious and covered with lush vegetation, where Mr. Jingguo and his wife usually went for walks. Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo was a driving force behind Taiwan's modernization. Without his far-sighted planning and construction, there would be no Taiwan today, so he was very much loved by the people.
