During his reign of Taiwan, Mr. Chiang always adhered to the one-China position and never compromised even under the high pressure of the United States. This is worthy of admiration. One day, when we go to Taiwan Province, China, we must go to the place where Mr. Chiang spent the last 26 years, which is the Shilin official residence located in Taipei City.
Silin Official Residence began renovation and construction in 1949. Before that, it was the Governor's Garden during the Japanese occupation period. After the completion of in 1950, Mr. Jiang and his wife moved from Yangmingshan to Shilin's official residence. Unexpectedly, Mr. Jiang spent the last 26 years of his life there.
Starting from 1996, Shilin Official Residence is no longer a restricted area with strict security. In this year, the external Chinese and Western Gardens were open to tourists. Starting from January 2, 2011, the main hall will also be open to the public. Shushu was fortunate to visit Shilin Official Residence twice, and still remember it freshly.
The meaning of the former residence is far more than the houses that celebrities have lived in. It is also architectural art, family and country past . We came to visit the Shilin official residence to have the opportunity to understand the details of the later life of Mr. Jiang and his wife who were unknown to us in the past. We were there and listened to the explanations of the volunteer aunt, as if we were approaching the later life of Jiang and Song.
Shilin Official Residence is divided into outer garden, inner garden, main house and other areas . There is a greenhouse potted planting area and a rose garden in the outer garden. It is said that because Mrs. Jiang likes the garden very much and loves roses, Mr. Jiang gave her a rose garden, which shows their love in her later years.
The life of Mr. Jiang and his wife supporting each other in their later years was fully reflected in the Shilin Official Residence . Many interesting stories about their later years of life make people feel that they live a peaceful and ordinary life like ordinary people.
Today's inner garden is particularly suitable for a quiet walk in . It is a perfect fusion of Chinese courtyard and Western gardens. It has both the Western style of Western nurseries, flower art, sculptures, and pools, as well as the Chinese charm of Chinese courtyard arch bridges, curved pools, and flowing water. It looks quiet and beautiful everywhere.
Shushu visited Shilin's official residence twice, and once he was lucky enough to approach the villa where Mr. Jiang and his wife lived . The small dark green house doesn't look big. Because Mr. Jiang and his wife have different working and rest periods and different preferences, their living rooms are very different. One is extremely simple, while the other is much more lively and full of vitality.
The staff in the villa are all volunteer aunts. They introduced us to . Mr. Jiang and his wife have to take a walk in the park every day. That is a compulsory course in their 26 years of life in Shilin Official Residence. Unless the old couple has a conflict, suspending the walk is the most serious consequence. In the end, Mr. Jiang usually tries all kinds of ways to coax his wife, and then take a walk every day.
Shilin Official Residence has a great ecological environment. Some outdoor experience activities are often held here. Now it has become a holiday leisure destination for Taipei citizens. Mainland tourists also like it there very much. When traveling to Taiwan in the past, Shilin Official Residence was a must-check-in place .
One day, we took the high-speed rail to Taiwan, China, and when we arrived in Taipei, we would go to Shilin’s official residence to take a look. Maybe the stories there, the birds singing and the flowers smelling, and the quietness and comfort there would become the most unforgettable memories of the treasure island trip. On that day, will you go to Shilin Official Residence for a walk?
