The school town built across an ocean
Explore Jimei School Town through Tan Kah Kee’s educational ambitions, overseas connections and an architectural landscape made for learning.

Tan Kah Kee founded a primary school here in 1913 and expanded his educational work into teacher training and vocational fields. The school town’s architecture, former residence and memorial landscape offer several ways to understand that ambition. Its institutional spaces also remain places of work and study, with access boundaries that deserve attention.
