Chishang Beef Story Museum Introduction
The Chishang Fault is a well-known seismic fault in eastern Taiwan, extending from the southeast of Ruisi in Hualien to the southeast of Chishang, particularly around the Jinyuan Village in Chishang. The continuous plate movement causes the area to rise slowly at a rate of nearly three centimeters each year, making it one of the most active and visually prominent fault areas in the world, which has become a key focus for earthquake research both domestically and internationally. The Chishang Hakka Industry Exchange Center (Diniou Pavilion) was formerly the Chishang Visitor Center of the Central Geological Survey, operating with a combination of academia and tourism. The second floor of the Diniou Pavilion will coordinate with the five crustal deformation measuring instruments established by the Academia Sinica in the area to provide visitors with environmental education information and services for international academic use. The first floor hosts various permanent exhibitions and occasionally organizes Hakka cultural activities. In addition to promoting Hakka culture, it also integrates local geological features, creating a unique and regionally distinctive tourism highlight!
