But, oh boy, looks at our timing. We happened to come near the changing guard ceremony timing. Apparently the replacement guards have already walked in formation from the ground floor on the way to the level 4, where the ceremony takes place.

The guards walk in formation and steady pace, so we were in time to reach the 4th floor to watch the whole thing. 

Level 4 is the floor where the statue of Chiang Kai Sek is kept, the changing guard ceremony is held in front of the statue. 

The whole ceremony takes around 10 minutes plus. 

Closer looks at the guards. I always admire them especially when they have to stand stiff for few hours under hot weather. Taiwan's summer can be so cruel even though the area is equipped with air-conditioner. 

The changing guard ceremony happens every hour. So if you are interested to catch the ceremony, do make your way up to level 4 when the time is up. For information on how to go to Chiang Kai Sek Memorial Hall, you can read my other post here.
