Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall
The Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, originally known as the Sun Yat Sen Home, is a two-story colonial-style villa in Balestier, Singapore. Sun Yat Sen (1866–1925), the founding father of the Republic of China, visited Singapore nine times between 1900 and 1911, and the home is now a museum dedicated to him. The home, which is located at 12 Tai Gin Road off Ah Hood Road in Balestier and covers around 3,120 square meters (33,600 square feet), played an important part in the 1911 Xinhai Revolution by acting as the Tongmenghui's base in Nanyang (Southeast Asia) in the early twentieth century.
This ancient property, tucked away off Balestier Road, was formerly the home of Sun Yat Sen in Singapore. There are many images and artifacts here that will help you comprehend the Chinese revolution and Sun Yat Sen's part in it. History buffs may find this museum more intriguing than others due to its highly specialized topic area. However, if you're interested in learning more about the revolution, you're invited to join their free guided tours, which are available in English or Mandarin. The museum is also a part of the Balestier Heritage Trail, which includes several historical places worth seeing.
