We had a wonderful experience at Shilin Residence Chrysathemum Flower festival. Its was free entry on 10 Dec and there were musical performances on the centre stage. The exhibits will definitely attract any flower enthusiats! The place was huged and the exhibits were beautiful. We shopped at the bazzar too! My three-year-old enjoyed the trip too, he helped to take pictures. It's only a 10 minutes walk from Shilin Metro Station. #taipeitravel #shilin

#bucketlistreboot Shilin Official Residence is historical site open to the public. Formerly is the home Chiang Kai Shek. As strictly no picture around, it’s very tricky to sneak a snap of the residence. The range of bedroom, study room and also guests room are fully displayed. No, you cannot walk to sit at the chairs or sofa, just look. Saw a range of old clothings from Mrs Chiang. It is surrounded by greenery and garden. Picture shared included one of his transport during the days in office. Entry to the garden is for free but to enter the residence , 100NTD. Again, try to get Taiwan Pass that cover the entrance . To get here it is pretty easy, just use the transit to Shilin station.

Probably the best park in Taipei. Everything is new, everything is green. Fresh air, wonderful views, excellent Instagram photos. It’s a bit hot in afternoon, but have a lot of places where you can hide from sunshine. Getting There - short walk from Shilin MRT station (around 7-8 minutes) Attractions - nice photos for your Instagram Hotels, Food & Restaurants - next to the park is Renaissance Hotel Taipei. You can stop by for some coffee or nice Chinese dinner. #taipeitravel #summertrip

The Shilin Official Residence is located on Fulin Road, Shilin District, Taipei City. It was the residence of former President Chiang Kai-shek. At present, only a private villa is retained in the residence, and the rest is open to the public. The garden is rich in flora and fauna, with a natural landscape, making it a good place for citizens to get close to the green space and leisure. 📍Detailed address: No. 60, Fulin Road, Shilin District, Taipei City 🚗Transportation strategy: Take bus 109, 203, 216 deputy, 220, 220 straight, 260, 260 district, 267, 277, 279, 285, 612, 612 district, 646 to MRT Shilin Station (Zhongshan Road) station and cross the road. 🕙Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 9:30~12:00 in the morning; 13:30~17:00 in the afternoon (closed on Mondays) Ticket price (NTD): 💰Ticket price: Full ticket: 100 yuan; Group ticket: 80 yuan (group of 20 or more); Concession ticket: 50 yuan 🌈Play strategy: It is now an open park. Admission is required, 100 yuan for adults, 80 yuan for groups. Outdoor areas, such as the Rose Garden, Chinese and Western courtyards, and Ciyun Pavilion, are all free. When I went there on a weekend afternoon, I found that there were many locals, some of whom were with their children. There are many green plants here, and Chiang Kai-shek's blue-gray house will be hidden behind the big trees and not easy to find. This building looks very low-key. There are many varieties in the rose garden. It is recommended to go there when the roses are fully bloomed, otherwise there may not be much to see in this area. Ciyun Pavilion was built by Chiang Kai-shek in memory of his mother and is the highest point of Shilin Official Residence Park. Soong Mei-ling's Cadillac looks very new. There is a small shop near the special car, selling drinks, souvenirs, etc., and you can also stamp. The Q version of the historical figures inside is very cute. Visiting here, you can feel the lifestyle of Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling. 🤡Surrounding tourist attractions: ➡️Shilin Official Residence, don't go on Monday, you can enter the park but the residence is closed. There are some gardens and some old buildings (church, orchid hall) in the residence park that you can also see ➡️Tianmu Chunshuitang, want to try the founder of pearl milk tea. The food is delicious. The price is cheap. So much is only more than rmb200. The closer one is in Tianmu. You can take a bus. Tianmu belongs to Shilin, clean, old rich area ➡️I went to Yangmingshan by the way, Tianmu can take a taxi directly, it's very cheap, there are many restaurants along the way, and there are former US military dormitories when you go down, now they are all restaurants. It's quite characteristic, you can go and see ➡️Shilin Night Market, because many tourists go, I tried the Michelin-recommended noodle line (forgot to take a picture, the shop has its own sign), the pepper cake is delicious, and the rice noodle with beef balls inside is also very delicious, anyway, choose more people It's definitely right 🌟Highlights: The quiet courtyard perfectly combines Chinese classical and Western styles. You can often see young women in kimonos and wedding dresses taking photos here, and the elderly and children enjoy the joy of family. Being here, I only feel the strong warmth and joy in the life of Taipei citizens. The combination of Chinese and Western styles in one place does not seem abrupt and weird, but has a different kind of beauty. It's like the combination of a completely westernized intellectual woman and a warlord bureaucrat who still retains feudal traditions.

Very beautiful garden, many beautiful flowers, a nice place
