Taitung Sugar Factory Introduction
Taitung Sugar Factory has a history of over a hundred years since its establishment. In 2004, it was registered as a historical building by the Taitung County Government and transformed into the Taitung Sugar Factory Cultural and Creative Park. The park retains the old railway and train equipment, and the original buildings have been renovated to include a museum, an outdoor stage, public art installations, and more. Local artists and dining establishments have also been invited to move in, creating a multifunctional arts and cultural performance space that showcases local culture while preserving traditional crafts. On weekends, visitors can stroll around Taitung Sugar Factory, take photos against the backdrop of the old steam locomotive and land art, and then enter the cultural space to experience Taitung's artistic style through exhibitions. If you want to take a piece of Taitung's charm home, you can visit the creative store to purchase carefully crafted works by local artists, ranging from wood carvings to fabric bags. After exploring, you can sit down to relax by the expansive rice fields and enjoy a fragrant cup of coffee, making for a perfect afternoon.
