IONG SAM TONG PAVILION

#tripblazers #campingglamping #tripmoments long Sam Tong Pavilion was built during the early 20th century. Amongst the significant members of the Lous' family, Lou I loc was honorably known as the "Revolutionary Old Man". He was a perpetual supporter of Dr. Sun Yat-sen in Sun's revolutionary course and was highly received by Chiang Kal-shek during his visits to Taiwan at his sunset of life. In the early days, the long Sam Tong Pavilion was used for guest reception and subsequently converted into a library during 1938 to 1952, when Pui Ching Middle School rented the Lou Lim loc Garden to be its schoolhouse. Later on, long Sam Tong Pavilion was used by Leng Nam Primary School as classroom, later turned into the Floral and Faunal Specimens Room of Leal Senado (Municipal Council of Macao), the offices and warehouses of various government departments in 1980s. Over the years, the Pavilion had served for different historical purposes and its exterior had undergone purpose-based modifications. In 2010, the Pavilion went through large scale reconstruction to restore its original look.
