Daxi Mausoleum

　　Daxi Mausoleum, also known as Touliu Mausoleum, is situated in Fuan Village, Daxi Township, Taoyuan County, Taiwan. It serves as the resting place for the remains of Chiang Ching-kuo, the sixth and seventh President of the Republic of China. Originally built as the Touliu Guesthouse in 1962 (the 51st year of the Republic of China), it was initially used to store important presidential documents and archives. In 1988 (the 77th year of the Republic of China), following the death of the President, his remains were laid to rest here, and the site was subsequently renamed Daxi Mausoleum.

　　Managed by the Cihu & Daxi Mausoleum Administration Office under the Republic of China, Daxi Mausoleum is backed by Caoling Mountain and faces the Dahan River. The structure is a single-story reinforced concrete building designed in the style of a traditional quadrangle courtyard, featuring red tiles and black walls. The main hall houses the spiritual tablet of Chiang Ching-kuo. The room on the left was originally the quarters of Madame Chiang Fang-liang (Chiang Ching-kuo’s wife), while the room on the right side of the hall serves as an exhibition space for medals and honors. The left side of the entrance hall has been designated as the “Chiang Ching-kuo Memorial Room.” The surrounding area is tranquil, elegant, and serene. On January 13, 2001, the Taoyuan County Cultural Affairs Bureau declared Daxi Mausoleum a historical building of the Daxi region. In 2006, Taoyuan County announced the Chiang Kai-shek Residence, Jiaobanshan Residence, Cihu Mausoleum, Daxi Mausoleum, and Cihu Sculpture Memorial Park as part of the “Two Chiangs Cultural Zone,” attracting numerous visitors each year for commemoration.
