Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, Guangzhou, China

Another postcard from China!  This one came on May 25.  My Postcrossing profile says I will enjoy getting any postcard, but if you can send one of a castle, then I will be particularly happy.  The sender of this postcard says "Hello ~ you said you love castles very much and I'm very sorry that I don't have such postcard :(  Anyway, I hope you'll like this one :)".  I do like this one - I love the colors of this building!  This is the Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Guangzhou, China.  



I have to reluctantly admit that my knowledge of Chinese history is fairly rusty, and I had to look up Dr. Sun Yat Sen. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Yat-sen. This memorial hall is in Guangzhou, China.  There is also a National  Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial hall in Taipei City ~ yatsen.gov.tw/english/. The National memorial hall is what I first found when I searched for the hall, and it didn't look anything like my postcard's photo and I was confused until I found the one in Guangzhou.
