Dashan Station Introduction
Dashan Station was opened on October 11, 1922, during the Taisho era, and was originally named "Dashanjiao Station." The nearby sand dunes were suitable for growing watermelons. During the Japanese occupation, this station mainly transported rice. The exterior and interior architecture fully reflect the social and historical background of that time, making it one of the few remaining examples of a hybrid Japanese-Western wooden train station structure in Taiwan and a typical representative of small railway stations during the Japanese period. However, the steep gradients of the mountain railway limited transportation efficiency. In light of this, the coastal railway was completed and opened for service on October 10, 1922.
