Duxing Ten Villages Veteran Village Cultural Preservation Park Introduction
Duxing Ten Village is the oldest military dependents' village in Taiwan, originally serving as the command headquarters and officer's quarters of the heavy artillery battalion during the Japanese occupation of Penghu. After World War II, it was taken over by the Kuomintang government and became the officer's quarters of the Penghu Defense Headquarters, named "Duxing Ten Village." In 2006, after the residents relocated, the Cultural Affairs Bureau transformed it into a military dependents' village cultural park, preserving the unique cultural atmosphere and surrounding natural scenery, now known as the "Duxing Ten Village Cultural Park." Some houses have been renovated and planned as lodgings, while the surrounding buildings and streets have also been restored and rebuilt, featuring landscape areas, shopping areas, and many distinctive spots and shops. Some spaces have painted walls and decorations with nostalgic tables, bicycles, and motorcycles, making it a popular photo-op location. Visitors can not only stay here and experience the architecture of the military dependents' village, but the park also periodically organizes artistic and cultural events themed around festive activities, allowing visitors to feel the lifestyle of the military dependents' village of the past. Many notable figures have lived here, including the late singer Pan Anbang and Zhang Yusheng, known for the popular folk song "Grandma's Penghu Bay," both of whom grew up in this village. Their former residences have been repurposed into exhibition spaces known as the "Zhang Yusheng Story Museum" and the "Pan Anbang Memorial Hall," enriching the cultural connotations of the village. [Recommended stay time] 2.5 hours.
