Backdated to 13/09/07 – 1st wedding at Taipei story house
A rich tea merchant built this beautiful Tudor-styled house in 1914 – the bottom floor is made of brick and mortar while the second floor is wooden. It was used to entertained local and overseas politicians and gentry alike. From 1990-98 it became an artist activity center. In that same year it was proclaimed a heritage site and was closed for remodeling. From 2003 it was called Taipei story house, a museum dedicated to promoting Taiwan life culture with emphasis on heritage sites preservation. My sis-in-law got married here – the first event of its kind since it re-opened. It has a splendid garden surrounding it too with sculptures adoring it. Yes, and I did stop to smell the flowers too. (The doggy in the pic was for a dog story event, which was taken down shortly before the wedding.)
