Cihu Mausoleum Introduction
Cihu Mausoleum is famous for being the final resting place of the former President of the Republic of China, Chiang Kai-shek. Cihu is divided into Front Cihu and Back Cihu, with beautiful water colors along the lake shore and willows swaying, resembling the picturesque scenery of Jiangnan. Chiang named this place Cihu as it reminded him of his hometown in Fenghua, Zhejiang, and represented his longing for his mother. He ordered the construction of a villa (a mixed architectural style of Fujian and Zhejiang). He passed away in 1975 and was laid to rest here.
