Check in at the ancestral home of celebrities and learn about the glory of China's most prominent Soong family

The Song family ancestral home is located in Guluyuan Village, Changsha Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Province. The home is shaded by green trees and is naturally quiet. It is where Song Yaoru, the founder of the Song family, was born and lived as a teenager. The Soong family is one of the most prominent families in modern Chinese history. From the mid-to-late 19th century to the 20th century, during the period of drastic changes in Chinese society, members of the Soong family played many important roles and profoundly influenced the course of Chinese history. The founder of the Republic of China and provisional president Sun Yat-sen, the pioneer of the democratic revolution Song Yaoru, the honorary president of the People's Republic of China Song Qingling, the president of the Republic of China Chiang Kai-shek, the president of the Executive Yuan of the Republic of China Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen, etc., are all members of this prominent family. The core attraction is the Song Family Ancestral Residence, an old house with gray walls and brick tiles. The antique tables, chairs, stools, wooden beds, etc. in the room are still there, and precious graphic materials and historical relics are displayed in the room.

It covers an area of ​​107 acres and is the ancestral home of the Song family as well as the root of the Song family. In 1988, Deng Xiaoping inscribed the plaque "Song Family Ancestral Residence". In 1994, it was listed as a key cultural relic protection unit in Hainan Province. It is now a famous tourist attraction and red education base in Hainan Province.
