Yifang Old House, Traditional mansion in Daan district, Taiwan

Located near National Taiwan University campus, this three-section residential compound features a central building with two side wings and traditional Chinese architecture.

The Chen family, who migrated from Fujian province, constructed this dwelling in 1876 during the Qing dynasty when the area remained outside urban development.

The building structure reflects the architectural customs of Anxi County in Quanzhou, with characteristic elements including a dovetail rooftop and defensive features.

The property stands at 128, Lane 155, Section 3, Keelung Road, approximately fifteen minutes by foot from Gongguan Station through modern neighborhoods.

The mansion contains gun slots beneath its windows, integrated during construction to protect inhabitants from threats in nineteenth-century frontier Taiwan.
