The former residence of Madam Soong Ching Ling can be visited by
taking a flower instead buying a ticket on Sunday to mark the 115th
anniversary of her birth.
Visitors can take their own flowers, or buy one at the gate for
one yuan (13 US cents).
Tickets usually cost 20 yuan.
A wall will also be erected to let visitors leave messages to
commemorate Madam Soong (1893-1981), China's late honorary
chairperson and wife of Dr Sun Yat-sen, the forerunner of
anti-feudalism revolution in China.
Address: 1843 on Huaihai Road M.
