Dasyue Station Introduction
Dasyu Station was opened on October 11, 1922, during the Taisho era, and was initially named "Dasyu Jiao Station." The surrounding sand dunes were suitable for growing watermelons. During the Japanese colonial period, this station was primarily used for transporting rice. The architectural design and interior reflect the historical social context of the time, making it one of the few remaining wooden stations in Taiwan that showcase a blend of Japanese and Western styles. It is a representative example of small train stations during the Japanese rule. However, the slope of the mountain line railway was too steep, limiting transportation efficiency. In response, the coastal railway was completed and opened for service on October 10, 1922.
