Aqiu Local Cultural Museum Introduction
The A-Kong Local Cultural Center in Pingtung, also known as the "Hsiao Family Temple," was built in 1880. It was selected as one of the one hundred historical buildings in Taiwan in 2001, and in 2004, the government designated this temple as a county-level historic site. The "Hsiao Family Temple" is a significant cultural asset in the Chonglan area and played a crucial 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 museum and a creative workshop, and organize community arts performances and training courses for interpreters. It aims to promote comprehensive community development in collaboration with the Chonglan Community Development Association in Pingtung County, transforming the Chonglan Eco-Park into a smoke-free park. The "A-Kong Local Cultural Center" fully utilizes the historic building for creative cultural industries and community development, allowing the cultural living circle of Pingtung County to achieve urban tourism marketing.
