The Presidential Office Building Permanent Exhibition

The main structure of the Presidential Office Building comprises five floors, with a prominent central tower rising to approximately 60 meters, equivalent to 11 stories. The tower's structure, shaped like the character “亞,” has strong earthquake resistance. Wavy decorative brackets appear below the tower's peak, and at the very center of the tower, a tablet is inscribed with the characters “上棟” (“beam raising”). The reverse side of the tablet is engraved with the date June 25, the fourth year of the Taisho Era (1915), the date the main beam was fitted into place, marking the birth of the Presidential Office Building you see today.
