Former Residence Of Sun Yat-Sen (Shanghai)
The Former Residence of Sun Yat-sen (Chinese: 上海中山故居; pinyin: Shànghǎi Zhōngshān Gùjū), located at 7 Xiangshan Road (aka Rue Molière) in the French Concession area of Shanghai, China, near Fuxing Park to the east, was the residence of the Chinese revolutionary Dr. Sun Yat-sen (1866–1925).
This house was bought by four overseas Chinese in Canada for Sun Yat-sen in 1918, since then Sun Yat-sen lived in this house with his wife Soong Ching-ling. After his death, Sun's wife continued to live here until 1937. There is now an exhibition centre presenting Sun Yat-sen's life, together with some artifacts and a statue of Sun Yat-sen outside.
In 1961, this house was listed as Major cultural heritage sites under national-level protection.
