Chiang Kai-shek Memorial ParkThe pride of Taipei, the magnificent Chiang Kai-shek Memorial
Park is a walled complex built in memory of the former Taiwanese
President. It contains an impressive, pyramid-shaped white monument
to Chiang Kai-shek, capped with a blue-tiled roof, as well as the
National Concert Hall and National Theatre. All stand inside a
lovely park, fronted by a vast plaza where there are often folk
performances or other events being held. The Memorial is also the
main venue for Taipei's famed Lantern Festival, Shang Yuan, which
draws thousands of lantern-carrying revellers to mark the Chinese
New Year.
