Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall
Chiang Kai-shek, the first president of the Republic of China, is remembered through the construction of this memorial hall. After President Chiang's passing in 1976, construction on the hall got under way. The memorial hall was designed by C.C. Yang, who also served as the architect for The Grand Hotel.
Its predominant colors, white and blue, are those of the ROC flag, and the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMTinsignia )'s is shown on the vaulted ceiling. Symbolically facing the Presidential Office Building and mainland China, a bronze statue of Chiang stares west. The front plaza of the building serves as a significant location for democratic gatherings. The National Performance Halls, the Gate of Integrity, lovely gardens, and pathways are all located inside Liberty Square.
The white square body and blue octagonal ceiling of the memorial hall stand in for the white sun and blue sky, both of which stand for equality and freedom. Every day from 9 am to 5 pm, there is an hourly ceremony to change the military honor guards.
