Lin Garden： the diplomatic record of Mount Geleshan during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression

重慶西郊，歌樂山南麓，峰巒疊翠，溪水環(huán)繞。山上古柏青松，奇花異草，郁郁蔥蔥。林園抗戰(zhàn)遺址建筑就坐落其中。

林園內(nèi)有4幢小樓，1號(hào)樓為蔣介石住宅，人稱中正樓。2號(hào)樓為宋美齡居住，人稱美齡樓。2號(hào)樓也曾作為當(dāng)年國民政府迎接國賓的高級(jí)賓館，1945年“重慶談判”期間，毛澤東、王若飛等曾在該樓居住過。3號(hào)樓即馬歇爾公館，原為蔣介石召開重要會(huì)議之地。4號(hào)樓是林森公館。

1945年12月，美國總統(tǒng)特使馬歇爾以“調(diào)處”中國內(nèi)戰(zhàn)名義來到重慶，曾下榻于林園3號(hào)樓，于次年5月離開。該樓坐南朝北，建筑面積750平方米，為一樓一底石木仿西式建筑，面闊9間，進(jìn)深2間，樓高15米，有轉(zhuǎn)角式檐廊。

如今，林園為中國人民解放軍通訊學(xué)院使用，經(jīng)20世紀(jì)80年代初期、中期修繕加固，現(xiàn)保存完好。2013年5月3日被國務(wù)院核定公布為第七批全國重點(diǎn)文物保護(hù)單位。

Lin Garden is in the western suburbs of Chongqing and at the southern foot of Mount Geleshan， where mountain peaks overlap， reflecting different shades of green. The hills are surrounded by streams and the mountain has many ancient cypresses and pine trees， flowers and grasses.

There are four small buildings in the garden. Building No.1 is the house of Chiang Kai-shek， so it was known as Zhongzheng Building. Building No.2 is the residence of his wife Song Mei-ling， and it got the name of Mei-ling Building， which was once used by the government as a hotel for state guests. Mao Zedong， Wang Ruofei also stayed here for the "Chongqing negotiations" in 1945. Building No.3 was where Chiang Kai-shek held critical meetings， and later it was used by US Army Chief of Staff George Catlett Marshall. Building No.4 is the house of Lin Sen， the Chairman of Kuomintang （KMT）.

The US President's Special Envoy George Catlett Marshall came to Chongqing to mediate the Chinese civil war in December 1945. He lived in building No.3 and left in May 1946. With a total area of 750㎡， the western-style house has two floors with the height of 15 meters， the length of 9 Jian and width of 2 Jian （Jian is a traditional Chinese measurement for space， and one Jian stands for the distance between two pillars）. Making of stone and wood， it faces the south and has colonnades.

Repaired in the early and middle 1980s， Lin Garden was well preserved and now becomes the educational facility of the communications college of the Chinese people's liberation army. The State Council selected it as the seventh group of major historical and cultural sites protected at the national level on May 3， 2013.
