Baguashan Anti-Japanese Resistance Memorial Hall 1895 Introduction
In remembrance of the fierce battles during the "Battle of Bagua Mountain" in 1895, where the people of Taiwan resisted the Japanese army, the Changhua County Government has specially created a new recreation theme for the Bagua Mountain Buddha Scenic Area based on the concept of a historical war site park. Through small space exhibitions, it aims to awaken the memory of the historical battles of Bagua Mountain. Utilizing the landscape of the park and repurposing long-closed air raid shelters, the exhibition areas are designated to explain the Sino-Japanese War, the Taiwan Expedition of 1895, and the Battle of Bagua Mountain, displayed through panels and multimedia presentations. The unique spatial experience inside the tunnels allows visitors to feel the tension and oppression of wartime, enhancing the on-site experience. The public can enter the air raid shelters to experience the atmosphere of seeking refuge during wartime and can witness the tense scenario of the Japanese army crossing the creek at night. The exhibition space encourages deep contemplation of the meaning and consequences of war. The exhibition hall is located behind the Changhua County Library.
