Introduction

Meilu is an English-style villa hidden under lush greenery, and it is a unique cultural landscape of Lushan. It used to be Chiang Kai-shek's summer capital and the residence of Song Meiling, the "First Lady" at that time, and was considered a forbidden place. The Meilu consists of a main building and an annex, with the main building being two stories and the annex being one story. Upon entering the first floor of the main building, you will see a tastefully decorated, Chinese-Western-style reception room, and Song Meiling's bedroom. The second floor of the main building houses Chiang Kai-shek's office, reception room, and bedroom. The layout of the bedroom is very similar to Song Meiling's, with the only difference being that there is a lying sofa.
