Introduction

Meiling Residence, located on Nanji Island, enjoys a quiet and beautiful environment with panoramic views of the south-facing scenery and the Lion Mountain. Meiling Residence was cleverly built with large granite stones and is a reinforced concrete structure, consisting of a guard room, a reception room, a bedroom, a study, a bathroom, and a kitchen, with a total area of 80 square meters. In addition, the windows are designed with bulletproof steel wire mesh, and the small trees and weeds on the roof add to its beauty. Meiling Residence was built in 1954 and was the most outstanding building on Nanji Island at that time. It was originally built for Madame Soong May-ling's visit to the troops stationed on the island, but due to various reasons, Madame Soong failed to visit, and it eventually became a place with historical significance but no longer in use. The name of Meiling Residence was given by Honorary Chairman Wu Boxiong of the Kuomintang.
