One Day Taipei Stop 2: Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall



After Longshan Temple, next stop was Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. We took the blue line from Longshan Temple station in the direction of Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, then transferred at Ximen station to the Xiaonanmen line. Ximen and Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall stations are the termini of Xiaonanmen, so it's hard to get lost coming from Ximen. This route cost NT20.

Unfortunately, the memorial hall was under renovation at that time, so we weren't able to do much while we were there. Actually, it was only then that I learned that the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is just one of the halls within the Memorial Hall Square. Before that, I thought the entire Memorial Hall Square was the CKS Memorial Hall. After taking pictures of the structures around the memorial hall square, we went on to our next stop: Taipei 101.
