義塚大墓公外觀

Yizhong Cemetery, originally known as the Refugee Wanshan Tomb and also referred to as the Baijie Yizhong Cemetery, commonly known as Tucheng Cemetery, is a famous grave in northern Taiwan along with the Yinggong Temple. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the indigenous people in the areas of Tucheng and Banqiao would raid Han people's money and food, even resorting to murder. As a result, the local villagers worship the Yizhong Cemetery to seek protection and repel the indigenous people. The early settlers would rent farmland to raise funds for the temple, leading to a flourishing of incense offerings. Today, it has become a shared belief among the three administrative districts of Tucheng, Banqiao, and Zhonghe, with the temple affairs jointly managed by the district heads of the three city areas. Prior to the consolidation of five municipalities in 2010, it was managed by the mayors of the three county-controlled cities.

Yizhong Tomb Park Introduction

Yizhuang Dabukeong, originally known as the Refugee Wanshan Tonggui Tomb, also referred to as the Baijie Yizhuang Dabukeong, commonly known as Tucheng Dabukeong or Dabukeong, is a famous tomb and temple in northern Taiwan. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the indigenous people of Tucheng and Banqiao often attacked Han Chinese to seize money and food. The local villagers worshiping Yizhuang Dabukeong were able to receive protection and fend off the indigenous people. As a result, the local cultivators rented farmland as offerings, leading to a flourishing of worship, establishing it as a common center of faith for the descendants of Hokkien settlers from Tucheng, Zhonghe, and Banqiao.
