Cihu Mausoleum
Originally known as “Piwei,” Cihu is also known as “Dong-kou” (the “cave exit”)
since it is right next to the exit of Baiji Tunnel. Jiang Jie-shi loved the sceneries
here since it resembles his hometown, Fenghua. Cihu Resort was completed in 1959,
and the place was renamed to “Cihu” in 1962 in the memory of Jiang’s mother Madame
Wang.
This place became Cihu Mausoleum in 1975 when the late President Jiang’s remains
were placed here. Situated at the north and faces south, this mausoleum is surrounded
by mountains and water, and is a single-story brick house built in the style of
Fujian and Zhejiang four-section compound. The round openings at the two sides lead
to the side yard, and there is an air-raid shelter in the mountain located at the
back of the Mausoleum.
The style of the Cihu Mausoleum can be called a perfect fusion of the brick-and-tile
architecture in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang area and the Fujian-style courtyard manor.
The ceremony for changing the guards attracts numerous visitors who flock here to
take photographs as souvenirs of their visit. |

Cihu Tourist Information Center
This bungalow brick house next to the parking lot of Cihu Mausoleum displays photographs
of Jiang Jie-shi, his calligraphy works and clothing replica. The souvenir shop
right next to the Tourist Center sells souvenirs related to the two President Jiangs,
and the most popular items include figurines and Mrs. Jiang’s favorite Honey Plum
Cake
The Baiji Tree-Shade Foot Trail
The Baiji Tree-Shade Foot Trail behind Cihu was originally a restricted military
zone. It was not until 1998 and only after repeated calls by the local people to
promote local tourism that the military lifted the restriction. There are many beautiful
tourist spots along the footpathl. With fluttering butterflies and a rich ecology,
this is an excellent place for outdoor excursions and mountainclimbing for the entire
family. At the highest point, tourists can view faraway mountains and have a full
view of Daxi.
