Shuǐlǐ Township Farmers' Association Zhenmei Museum Introduction
Checheng Village in Shui Li Township is the terminus of the Jiji Line. It still retains the large old factory buildings of Zhenchang Wood Industry, a large wood storage pond, employee dormitory area, Checheng Village, and the Shui Li River Valley. During the Japanese occupation and early post-war period, Checheng was the dream of many young people, bustling with merchants, and it was once prosperous, earning Shui Li the nickname "Little Taipei," with the Jiji Branch Line serving as a major transportation artery. The "Shui Li Zhenmei Pavilion" is located next to Checheng Train Station and was originally an old railway warehouse. After being renovated with cypress wood by the Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area Administration, it has been rented and planned by the Shui Li Township Farmers' Association as a local agricultural product exhibition and sales center. The main products are plum-related items and souvenirs developed over the years by the Shui Li Township Farmers' Association, as well as unique products incorporating the local snake kiln culture. Many of these have won the Top 100 Fine Products Award from the Farmers' and Fishermen's Associations, making them distinctive and suitable for collection and sharing. Featured products: Mei You Jing Shen (Plum Essence), Enjoy Plum Vinegar, Plum Soy Sauce, Plum Oil Paste, Mochi Plum, and Book Fragrance Plum. Introduction to Book Fragrance Plum: Traditional handmade plums without any preservatives, designed in collaboration with the Shui Li Snake Kiln, this product represents a combination of color, aroma, and flavor in Shui Li Township's plum foods and is a timeless masterpiece loved by literati and scholars.
