石碑

Taichung's "823 Memorial Park" was established to commemorate the "823 Artillery Battle," which occurred on August 23, 1958, when the communist forces bombarded the Kinmen Islands. The park honors the sacrifices and contributions of the brave Taiwanese military and civilians during that time. This park serves to remember an important battle in the defense of Taiwan, featuring various military equipment from the three branches of the armed forces, all accompanied by informative plaques, showcasing the city's commitment to this memorial. The weapons displayed in the park are mostly not those used during the 823 Artillery Battle, but rather later weapons used to defend the Taiwan Strait.
