About the Site

Plum Garden was built in the late 1930s. It is a luxurious residential building that has weathered wartime and includes an air raid shelter and Japanese-style wooden structure. The main building comprises columns, beams, and sloping wooden roof trusses. The foundation and basement are made of reinforced concrete. The gate posts bear the inscription “梅庭” (Plum Garden) made by calligrapher Yu Yu-Jen (于右任). The building used to house a hot spring, and its spacious courtyard is built along the Beitou River valley, a place of wildness and beauty. Outside the building, trees line up beneath the sky, setting a scene of lush greenery. The Qilian stone fence is typical of the locale.
