## About Meilu Villa

This is the only villa in Chinese history to have housed leaders of both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, which gives it significance in both architecture and politics.
Shrouded in Lushan's clouds all year round, Meilu Villa looks very mysterious. As you wander through its labyrinthine rooms, the political upheavals linked to it, along with the small details of daily life once lived here, seem to rise up around you.
