Taipei - Chiang Kai Shek Memorial

 The gate to the memorial grounds. The Gate of Great Centrality and Perfect Uprightness

The day we  visited, 1600 pandas also decided to put on a display.  Children all over the place.

 The Memorial Hall itself is very imposing.

 From the top of the 84 steps you can view the National Theatre  and the National Concert Hall.

Inside the Hall, CKS seated in a very Chinese way, reminding me of Chingis Khan's memorial chair in UB.  The guard is changed every hour on the hour.  This guy was almost as still as the seated CKS.
