松山療養所所長宿舍

The Songshan Sanatorium Director's Residence is a building in Nangang, Taipei, featuring wooden window frames, tiled roofs, and spacious balconies that showcase early 20th-century craftsmanship. Today it operates as a restaurant and exhibition space called Jingxin Yuan.

The building was constructed in the 1920s during Japanese colonial rule and served as housing for directors of Taiwan's first tuberculosis treatment facility. It stands as a link to the island's medical development and modernization during that era.

The residence was home to medical administrators and shows how they lived during that era. The furnishings and layout reveal the everyday habits and social status of these officials.

The residence is located near exit 4 of Kunyang MRT Station, making it easy to reach. Visitors can explore the house, which today serves both as a restaurant and exhibition space.

The building preserves its original layout with traditional Japanese architectural elements such as rain-screening boards and dual-beam roof structures. These details reveal much about construction methods and the influence Japanese occupation had on Taiwan's architecture.
