Cicadas sing in the long summer days - the White House on Fuxing Island

The 'Love House' on Dongping Road is famous at home and abroad for the love legend of Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling. Do you know that there is also a house named 'Lu' in Shanghai related to Chiang Kai-shek, which is the 'White House' on Fuxing Island. This was his last stop before withdrawing from the mainland, and one can imagine the atmosphere at that time. I visited here more than a decade ago, when it had not been renovated and used, the old house exuded a hint of mystery... As time goes by, it has now been transformed into a Binjiang Party Mass Service Post Station, suitable for public leisure visits. I like the handsome white style. Several rooms have different functions, including historical review, ecological propaganda, and a reading room. The backyard is simple and fresh, with grapevines covering the pergola. A few huge camphor trees are asymmetrically distributed on both sides of the front door, with dense shade blocking the sun, and the view is full of dripping green. The White House is located in Fuxing Island Park and has a Japanese style due to historical reasons. Heart-shaped lake, bamboo cool pavilion, small waterfall, fern moss, dense forest and bamboo, although small, it has a sense of depth. The cicadas sing in the summer, but the mood can calm down. You can take the subway line 12 to the island, or reach it via Dinghai Road Bridge. It is recommended to ride a bike. The only road on the island is Gongqing Road, which can instantly pull people back to the green years of the 1980s.
