View of the May-ling Palace, where Chiang Kai-shek, former leader of the Kuomintang, and his wife Soong May-ling once lived, in Nanjing city, east China's Jiangsu province, 6 November 2015. Aerial photos of a residence that was once the home of Chiang Kai-shek, late leader of the Kuomintang, and his wife, Soong May-ling, recently cheered the friends circle on WeChat, a popular social networking platform in China. From the air, the house resembles a giant emerald and the landscaping around it looks like a pendant and necklace. It's rumored the site was built that way as a symbol of love for the couple. The May-ling Palace, as the locals call it, is located on the top of Xiaohong Hill in eastern Nanjing city, east China's Jiangsu province and is now a scenic spot. The aerial photos show that a road with yellow-colored plane trees on the wayside leading to the residence looks like a necklace while the palace's roof looks just like a cut emerald. The May-ling Palace was built in 1931 and served Chiang Kai-shek and his wife until 1949.
