Taichung Line Earthquake Reconstruction Memorial Monument Introduction
If you take the train along the mountain line and pass by Tai'an Station, you will notice a 'bomb-shaped' building standing by the railway. This is the Taichung Line Earthquake Reconstruction Memorial. This memorial was established to commemorate the strong earthquake that occurred in the middle reaches of the Daan River at dawn on April 21, 1935 (Showa 10 in the Japanese era). This earthquake brought unprecedented disaster to the state-operated railway Taichung Coastal Line at that time.
