Victory New Village - General's House Introduction
Pingtung Victory Village was a group of Japanese-style buildings received from Japan after World War II. Each courtyard reflects different beautiful scenes based on the owner's favorite plants and styles. After the Republic of China government came to Taiwan, this area was once an important military officer's residence. With the Ministry of National Defense's plans for the reform of military dependents' housing, many areas faced reconstruction and demolition. However, thanks to the efforts of the Pingtung County Government, these 71 lucky Japanese-style buildings were preserved, serving as a witness to the era marked by emotional ties due to war-related displacements. Under the bright sun, these 71 houses exude a strong atmosphere of military dependents' villages, connecting the memories of all those who have lived there, endlessly continued. Among them, the General's House is a one-and-a-half-story Japanese-style building, featuring a black eave and pebble steps; its Japanese corridor and traditional Taiwanese earthen gray walls reflect a history that has been passed down through time, having witnessed the comings and goings of many people. Today, the General's House no longer houses generals, but instead tells the beautiful stories of the past, recounting the memories of Pingtung's military dependents' village, allowing the unique brilliance of this community to continue shining here.
