Wanhua Lin's Mansion, Historic mansion in Wanhua District, Taiwan.

The four-story mansion features a distinctive quadrangular shape with exterior walls combining biscuit porcelain and Japanese red bricks throughout its structure.

The mansion's construction, completed in 1935, incorporated advanced building techniques using reinforced concrete and repurposed railway tracks for enhanced stability.

The prayer hall on the top floor represents an architectural fusion through its combination of Chinese, Japanese, and Western design elements.

The ground floor contains a cafe while the third and fourth levels function as exhibition spaces displaying Lin family artifacts and photographs.

The building materials included specific cement from Asano Cement Company, marking an early example of Japanese industrial products in Taiwanese architecture.
