I have been to Sun Yat-sen's residence in Beijing and Sun Yat-sen's former residence in Hong Kong. This time we visited Sun Yat-sen’s former residence in Shanghai. Different from the classical style in Beijing, the former residences in Shanghai have more literary and artistic atmosphere. Located at No. 7 Xiangshan Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai, it is a two-story dark gray building. The roof is covered with magenta chicken heart tiles. There is a square lawn in front of the building, surrounded on three sides by trees and flower beds such as holly, camphor and magnolia, creating a very quiet environment. 📍Historical background: It was Sun Yat-sen's residence in Shanghai from 1918 to 1924. In 1925, Sun Yat-sen died in Beijing, and the residence was lived in by his wife Soong Ching Ling until 1937. In 1945, Soong Ching Ling handed over the residence to the Nanjing National Government as a permanent memorial to Sun Yat-sen. It was listed as a key cultural heritage site under protection in China in 1961. 📍Important Events: From 1918 to 1923, Sun Yat-sen lived in this residence and completed the writing of works including "Sun Yat-sen's Theory of Literature", "Industrial Plan", and "Manifesto of the Chinese Kuomintang". On November 17, 1924, Feng Yuxiang launched a coup in Beijing. Sun Yat-sen was invited to travel north from Guangzhou. When he passed through Shanghai, he stayed in the residence for 6 days. During this period, Sun Yat-sen accepted interviews from reporters and held a tea party with more than 30 Shanghai journalists. 📍Introduction to the cultural relics and environment in the former residence Many precious objects are displayed in the former residence, including a command sword used in the Protection of Law Movement in 1917, and silver shields and silver cups presented by groups and the public along the way when the emperor went north in 1924. The second floor has a study on the west side, a bedroom on the east side, a small living room on the north side, and a rectangular inner balcony on the south side of the study and bedroom. In the center of the study is an ordinary writing desk, on which are placed the four treasures of the study used by Sun Yat-sen during his lifetime. There are 12 maps of different sizes hanging on the wall, two of which were hand-painted by Sun Yat-sen, including "Water and Land Transportation Map between Shanghai and Wusong with Military Deployment Map" and another military schematic drawing with a brush. There are bookcases in the study and corridor, which contain more than 5,000 Chinese and foreign books on politics, military affairs, economics, history, geography and law. There is a bed, wardrobe, etc. in the bedroom, and hanging on the wall is a photo of Sun Yat-sen and his wife in Shanghai in 1920. The inner balcony displays a set of shell-made Go given by Japanese friends and other items. On the wall hangs a photo of Sun Yat-sen and Soong Ching-ling after their wedding in Tokyo, Japan in 1915.

Sun Yat-sens Former Residence Memorial Hall is located on Xiangshan Road, a quiet road along the bustling Huaihai Road. It consists of Sun Yat-Sen Cultural Relics Museum and Sun Yat-sens former residence. There is no exhibition on the first floor, directly on the second floor. After going upstairs, the small room on the right hand side is a film and television room, rolling the TV documentary "Going to Sun Yat-sen". The second floor houses the items used by Sun Yat-sen, the tunic suits that passed through, the various Chinese and English documents published at that time, and the patriots who supported the gift from the north, and finally on the wall of the door. I can see the calligraphy of "the world is the public." The third floor is generally not "stopped by tourists". Follow the instructions arrow from the other side of the stairs down to the first floor. There is a souvenir shopping spot. The shoe box in the central box of the room where the former residence is located, take it by yourself, and need to wear a shoe cover when visiting the former residence. Don't walk directly after wearing the shoe cover. The room where the shoe cover is placed can also be visited. It is a kitchen. There are coal stoves and gas stoves of the 1930s, which are imported from abroad. The gas stove can still be used today. Not every household can afford it. Then visit the restaurant and the living room on the first floor. There is a photo taken by Sun Yat-sen as the temporary president in the living room. The photo is surrounded by a colored ribbon, which means Mr. Nakayama. To use the revolutionary bell to evoke the Chinese people.
