Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall (www.cksmh.gov.tw) is imposing and a bit stark. It has a large paved area all round it, houses a big statue of Chiang Kai-shek (complete with guards that change hourly), and a museum. The gardens around the monument are a cool haven in a hot afternoon. When I visited they were quiet and pleasant. I saw a Buddhist nun officiating a service there and lots of elderly people ambling around. The porticos against the fencing walls are equally cool and nice. Our son had a lovely time running around there.
