What travelers say:
Came here in the late afternoon so it was cooler but the sky was just beautiful with such a large landscape of garden plots and sight of memorial hall. The contrast of white building against the blue sky was perfect for photography. Watch the flag lowering at CKS.

Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Located in the center of Taipei, the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is designed mainly with Chinese gardens. The windows are classical and elegant, and the buildings are decorated with blue and white, which symbolizes freedom and equality. The ground floor is mainly an exhibition room and a screening room, displaying Chiang Kai-shek's life story and clothing, and a bronze statue of Chiang Kai-shek. The changing of the guards at the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall every hour has become a center of attraction for tourists. The guards are steady and solemn, as is those watching the ceremony.

Memorial Building in Taipei#timetotravel Beautiful memorial building in Taipei that is free of charge. I visited in late July and it was very hot and humid, so I did not spend that much time outdoor exploring. As I am writing this post, I found out that every hour there would be changing of guards. It is such a shame that I had missed it… Because of the heat, I spent more time indoor at the level one gallery since it is air conditioned. Exhibits are all related to human rights and Taiwan’s history and some contain political messages. #境外遊 #taiwan #taipeiJOCELYNC37

Iconic Place to visit!The Place (Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall) that you shouldn’t miss in Taipei, Taiwan! I was so astonished at the intricate details of the building. The entire complex is very clean and beautiful. Come before 12 noon to witness the changing of the guards and get a close up view of the monument. There is also a wide garden beside the monument. You can enjoy taking pictures and enjoy sightseeing 🩵 It’s worth it! Highly recommended! #taipeitravelMs.Claire21

Chiang kai shekThe Memorial Hall is white with four sides. The roof is blue and octagonal, a shape that picks up the symbolism of the number eight, a number traditionally associated in China with abundance and good fortune. Two sets of white stairs, each with 89 steps to represent Chiang's age at the time of his death, lead to the main entrance. The ground level of the memorial houses a library and a museum documenting Chiang Kai-shek's life and career, with exhibits detailing Taiwan's history and development. The upper level contains the main hall, in which a large statue of Chiang Kai-shek is located, and where a guard mounting ceremony takes place at regular intervals. #instatravel #taiwandering_GG***0822
Nice place to view SakurasConveniently connected by MRT, this park is a great place for a morning walk in the city. The park is quite large . There is a garden tuck at a corner of this place where there are many sakuras in full bloom when we were here. We also see many locals walking around the park taking photos of all the flowers and sakuras. It is interesting to know that this is one of the famous sakura viewing in the city.winter16767

Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial#passionpassport The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall resembles the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. The Park, however, is quite unique. It is a park in traditional Chinese style. Apart from the gardens, it has a wall with Chinese windows. You will often see elderly Chinese men with caged songbirds. It's quite common to see old men playing traditional Chinese musical insruments together. By the way, the basement area of the CKS Hall has some interesting souvenir shops and some traditional Chinese restaurants. #taiwan #traveladdict #beautifuldestinations #travelinspiration #travelerWander_Girl17

Chiang Kai ShekWhat a great memorial hall park secluded in the middle of an ever busy city. The center piece of the hall is flanked by two traditional Chinese building structures. #passionpassportJoshandrianus21

Night visit @ Chiang Kai-shek Memorial HallIf you googled "places to visit in taipei", the National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall will definitely be one of the top place that is recommended. Most of the time, people tend to visit this place in the morning as that's when you can visit inside the hall. However, I had the chance to visit it during the night and it was a total different experience as compared to when I came in the day. The area is brightly lited up and it gives off a very romantic vibe. There isn't much tourist around too. I actually recommend you to come visit it in the night if you want to enjoy a more peaceful and romantic view of this area. #createwithtrip@anurselifeafterwork17

Another popular check-in point for tourists who come to Taiwan, very hot!!
There are a lot of people, like an activity courtyard. There are students coming to practice dance, practicing a yoyo, very cute.
The memorial hall is worth a visit. There will be a parade of duty exchange inside the hall every hour.
super monumental. amazing galleries as well as a fascinating statue inside.
Great spot to visit, with a museum in day time and also a wonderful night view
