Chishing Fish Museum Introduction

The Dried Fish Museum located beside Qixingtan is a renovated space that was once an old dried fish factory. The Qixingtan waters used to be abundant with bonito, and this museum is the first local museum in Taiwan dedicated to documenting the dried fish production industry. Upon entering the well-preserved and ancient-feeling interior, visitors are greeted by wafts of smoke and the aroma of smoked fish, as the charred baking room evokes memories of the past. Inside the museum, there are areas for fish processing, displays of the history of dried fish, and DIY experience zones, recreating the original appearance of the dried fish factory, the ecology of Qixingtan, and the dried fish production process. The design incorporates the original smoking room and features a cultural exploration theme, providing an overview of the dried fish production process, fixed fishing industry, and marine ecology. In addition, there are also many dried fish specialties and delicious cuisine available, making it a great place to get acquainted with dried fish.
