Song Qingling's Ancestral Home |
|
Song Qingling's Ancestral Home can be found in Gulu Village in Changsa Town. Both the father and grandfather of Song Qingling, one of the three famou Song sisters, were born here.
The building was erected during the reign of Jiaxing in Qing Dynasty and was originally the site of a local farmer's house. In 1985, the People's Government of Wenchang City renovated the ancestral home and added to it a Song Qingling display chamber. A 3.2-m-high white marble statue of Song Qingling was also erected. The life of Song Qingling is depicted with photographs and essays in the display chamber. |
