Air Force San Chong No. 1 Village Introduction
"The words 'Self-discipline and self-improvement, unshaken in the face of change' are fitting for the Air Force Sanchong Village, located near the Danshui River. Covering an area of approximately 1.38 hectares, it is the only remaining anti-aircraft garrison village in northern Taiwan. It was registered as a historical building in 2006 and became the first example of cultural assets related to garrison villages in New Taipei City. During the Japanese colonial period, in order to defend against Allied air raids, the Japanese military built six anti-aircraft gun positions in this location. In 1953, dozens of garrison houses were built around the anti-aircraft artillery base. However, due to the village's proximity to the Danshui River, it often suffered damage from typhoons and flooding, leading to continuous renovations that resulted in its current appearance."
