Ming Chuan University - Campus

Campus

The university is divided into three campuses. The main campus is located in Taipei City's Shihlin District near the Taipei Grand Hotel, and includes more than 500 steps to reach the top (no elevator). Chiang Kai-shek and his wife Soong May-ling donated the land for the main campus, resulting in the Lee family being one of the staunchest supporters in keeping the memory of Chiang Kai-shek alive in Taiwan. In addition to the main campus, there is a smaller campus located on Ji He street, very close to the main campus and situated near the entrance to the famous Shilin Night Market. The second campus is located in Gueishan, Taoyuan County. The Lee family originally intended the land for the second campus to be a fruit orchard, but decided to use the land to expand the school so that it could achieve full-university status. The third campus on Kinmen Island is meant to expand the educational opportunities of the residents there.
