Unlike the grandeur of the National Palace Museum, the Shilin Official Residence is small and exquisite, offering a glimpse into the later years of Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling, where Chiang ultimately passed away. Once a strictly guarded residence originally used to receive foreign dignitaries, it was opened to the public for leisure during holidays amid the wave of democracy. Its rose garden, with over 3,000 rose bushes, is truly a feast for the eyes when in full bloom.
