Akhua Local Cultural Center Introduction
The A-kong Local Cultural Center in Pingtung, also known as the "Hsiao Family Temple," was established in 1880. In 2001, it was selected as one of Taiwan's historical architectural sites, and in 2004, the government designated this temple as a county-level historic site. The "Hsiao Family Temple" serves as an important cultural asset in the Chonglan area and played a significant role in the establishment of the A-kong Local Cultural Center. The purpose of the cultural center is to preserve and expand the historic site of the "Hsiao Family Temple," establish a local history information center and a creative workshop, organize community art performances and tour guide training courses, and promote community development in collaboration with the Chonglan Community Development Association of Pingtung County. It also aims to transform Chonglan Eco-Park into a smoke-free park. The A-kong Local Cultural Center makes full use of the historic building, promoting creative cultural industries and community development, thereby achieving urban tourism marketing for the cultural life circle that connects Pingtung County and city.
