The main building of Shilin Official Residence is based on the guest house for foreign guests built by the Taiwan Provincial Government in 1949. It is a simple and practical two-story building with a pitched roof. The structure combines wooden structure and reinforced concrete. The restoration started in 2006 and was completed at the end of November 2009. In the official residence, whether it is the main hall where the late President Chiang Kai-shek and his wife lived, or the barracks where the attendants and guards are stationed, they are all painted in dark green to blend in with the surrounding woods and serve as both concealment and protection. The small garden in the main hall of Shilin Official Residence is where you can plant flowers, visit fish, and inquire about birds, which is full of elegant life style; and through the living space layout of the main hall of the official residence, you can imagine what Mr. Chiang’s family life was like at that time.
