Dadong Academy Introduction
The He Mei Dao Dong Academy, a national historical monument, was established in the seventh year of the Xianfeng era (1857 AD), and is one of the more complete ancient academies still existing in Taiwan. In recent years, it has been restored, with new beams and pillars installed to restore its former appearance. The academy is located next to He Mei Junior High School and He Mei Elementary School. The central hall enshrines the deity Zhu Wengong and the statue of the God of Examinations, while the eastern wing is dedicated to the spirit tablets of individuals who contributed to the academy's renovations. The western wing is dedicated to the God of Wealth and Prosperity, and there is a large section made of the original weathered logs used during its initial construction. The courtyard is spacious and densely shaded with greenery, often frequented by people for recreation and relaxation during mornings and evenings.
