Hsin Tung Yang Cultural and Creative Park Introduction
The Xindong Sugar Factory Cultural Park is located in Dulan Village, Donghe Township, nestled at the foot of the picturesque Dulan Mountain. The Xindong Sugar Factory was originally established in the 1930s during the Japanese colonial period, funded by private investment. Due to the favorable conditions for sugarcane cultivation in the area, it once led Taiwan in brown sugar production. However, due to changes in Taiwan's economic structure, the factory was closed in 1991. After being idle for many years, the Taitung County Government intervened to actively transform it into the "Xindong Sugar Factory Cultural Park," attracting artists, local youth, and food businesses to create a vibrant and passionate cultural and creative hub.
