Taitung Sugar Factory Introduction
The 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 has renovated the original buildings to add a museum, an outdoor stage, public art installations, and more. Local artists and dining establishments have also been invited to set up in the area, preserving traditional craftsmanship while transforming the Taitung Sugar Factory into a multifunctional arts and cultural exhibition space that showcases local culture. On weekends, you can stroll around the Taitung Sugar Factory, take photos against the backdrop of old locomotives and landscape art, and then enter the cultural space to see exhibitions reflecting Taitung's local art styles. If you want to take the Taitung vibe home with you, head to the creative store to buy carefully crafted works by local artists, from wooden carvings to fabric bags. If you get tired from walking, you can sit down and take a break by the wide rice fields, enjoying a fragrant cup of coffee. This is how a beautiful afternoon should be spent.
