Xihu Sugar Factory Introduction
Xiluo Sugar Factory exudes sweetness and nostalgia, combining culture, leisure, and gastronomy. Not only does it fully preserve the old sugar factory, with its huge smokestack and sugar boiling evaporation tanks that embody a "steam punk" atmosphere, but it also features an ancient steam locomotive, and trains still run on the old tracks, painted in vibrant colors to attract passengers. The charming old buildings have transformed into specialty stores selling traditional shaved ice, trendy desserts, and ice cream. The expansive grounds also include forests, lush green grass, a large barbecue area, and ecological ponds, making it a diverse and rich popular tourist destination in Changhua. Taiwan was once the largest exporter of sugar in Asia, and Xiluo Sugar Factory was the highest-producing sugar factory in Taiwan. After a glorious history and the cessation of operations, this massive sugar factory continues to evoke the grandeur of a century-old sugar industry. Relevant government agencies have even sought to have it listed as a "World Industrial Heritage Site," showcasing its impressive scale and hidden charm.
