“A fitting tribute, don’t you think?” Right before your eyes stands the Bronze Statue of Sun Yat-sen, a man deeply revered in both mainland China and Taiwan. He is often called the “Father of Modern China”. This bronze figure, standing at a modest height, is a constant reminder of his enduring legacy. The statue depicts Dr. Sun Yat-sen in a contemplative pose, perhaps pondering the future of the nation he fought so hard to shape. This statue wasn’t always here. It was originally placed in the Presidential Office Building in Taiwan in 1958. After a brief relocation in 2007, it was returned to a place of prominence in 2008. The return of the statue was a symbolic gesture, emphasizing Dr. Sun’s importance as the founder of the Republic of China. As you stand here, take a moment to reflect on the tumultuous history of China. Remember the man who dedicated his life to building a new and independent nation.
