- Established in 1952 by Madam Chiang, Soong Mei-ling, the Grand Hotel is Taiwan's first five-star hotel, standing midway up Yuanshan, nestled against Yangminshang, overlooking Keelung River in the front, Songshan in the east and Danshui in the west. The 14-storey palace-like building, with its vermilion columns, gilded tiles and a magnificent, grandiose, regal and classic presence, is an embodiment of eastern aesthetics and one of Taipei's representative landmarks.
