A-liao Local Cultural Center Introduction
The Ajien Local Cultural Center in Pingtung is known as the "Hsiao Family Temple," built in 1880. In 2001, it was selected as one of Taiwan's historical buildings, and in 2004, the government designated this temple as a county-level historic site. The "Hsiao Family Temple" is an important cultural asset in the Chonglan area and played a significant role in the establishment of the Ajien Local Cultural Center. The purpose of the center is to preserve and expand the historic site of the "Hsiao Family Temple," establish a local history archive and a creative workshop, organize community arts performances, and provide training for guides. Together with the Chonglan Community Development Association in Pingtung City, it promotes community overall development and transforms Chonglan Eco Park into a smoke-free park. The "Ajien Local Cultural Center" makes full use of the historic architecture, promoting creative cultural industries and community building, aiming to integrate the cultural life circle of Pingtung City for urban tourism marketing.
