Oasis Resort Introduction
Green Island Human Rights Cultural Park covers an area of approximately 32 hectares, encompassing various sites such as Jiangjun Rock, the Human Rights Memorial Park, Oasis Villa, Zhuangjing Camp (Reformatory), Green Island Skills Training Center, and Swallow Cave, which hold significant historical value for the development of human rights. Oasis Villa, officially known as the "Ministry of National Defense Green Island Prison," originated from the "Taiyuan Incident" that occurred on February 8, 1970. At that time, the Nationalist government built a walled prison west of the "Reformatory" on Green Island, which is the current Oasis Villa. Subsequently, political prisoners from Taiyuan Prison and various military prisons were transferred here for unified management, undergoing reform education and ideological transformation, becoming a concentration camp for the victims of human rights abuses and political events. In 1987, when the Nationalist government lifted martial law, Oasis Villa was abandoned thereafter. Surrounded by towering walls, Oasis Villa is a typical closed-type prison, with walls adorned with various patriotic slogans such as "Firmly Anti-Communist," "Endless Bitter Sea," "Don't Forget the Past," "Return is Safety," "Destroy Communism and Restore the Country," etc. The main building of the prison consists of cells on the first and second floors, with an internal structure in the shape of a hexagon, but the locals refer to it as the Bagua Building, as seen from the ancient trail that traverses the island, it resembles a Bagua diagram.
