Miniature Model – Office of President

The Presidential Office Building of the Republic of China was completed in 1919 and features the architectural style of Tatsuno Kingo. It is designated as a national historic monument. Originally built as the “Taiwan Governor-General’s Office” during the Japanese colonial period, it later became the Presidential Office after the Republic of China government relocated to Taiwan. Today, it stands as a vital political center in Taiwan.

As the administrative center during the Japanese colonial period, the building reflects a Neo-Renaissance architectural style influenced by European historicism. It showcases strong elements of 19th-century European historicist design combined with functional considerations. The entire structure is composed of four elongated wings arranged in a closed rectangular layout. A central axis runs through the middle wing, creating two enclosed courtyards. At the front of the main building stands a 67-meter-high tower, which was one of the tallest and most prominent buildings in Taiwan at the time.
