The Italians might have stayed in its western style building.

Mr 曾's report is here: <br />http://www.th.gov.tw/files/taiwan63_2/0632_4.pdf<br />Reference sources are listed under Table 1 (p 148). One of which may have info on where they stayed during the brief visit. My guess is the KoKaiDo 公會堂, a very comfortable place for local dignitaries and of course VIPs such as these Italians. <br />EyeDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406602265159523372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811556140606524073.post-10787469602388824772014-09-18T17:10:45.991+08:002014-09-18T17:10:45.991+08:00Hi EyeDoc,

They arrived on September 18 on Savoia S-16, and left on the 21st for Kagoshima. They started their journey from Rome on April 21.EyeDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406602265159523372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811556140606524073.post-10909308645282769812014-09-17T21:16:58.506+08:002014-09-17T21:16:58.506+08:00I am unsure if gasoline was available at the Risin...I am unsure if gasoline was available at the Rising Sun, since they sold mostly kerosene. The Italians could be supplied by the military stationed nearby at Shell's request. I'll check with the Township historian to see if any records of the visit by these Italians. Thanks.
