泰安舊車站

The old Tai'an Station in Houli, after the old mountain line of the west coast railway ceased operation on September 24, 1998, was designated as a historic site by the Taichung City Government and transformed into a railway cultural park. Surprisingly, after its closure, it attracted more visitors and became a new tourist spot. The columns of the two canopies on the platform are made from railway tracks produced in the early 20th century. Following its closure, the old Tai'an Station also ended its nearly 90 years of service since it began operations in 1908.

Tai'an Railway Cultural Park Introduction

The Houli Taian Railway Cultural Park has obtained public liability insurance. Although the railway is currently out of service, the Taian Station located at the foot of the mountain and the Hualiang Steel Bridge crossing the Dajia River have become popular spots for photography and wedding shoots. Local elders say, "Before the suspension, there weren't many people; only local residents were here. After the suspension, this place established a railway cultural park and created a themed commercial area, attracting more visitors." In addition to the nostalgic atmosphere of the old railway, during autumn and winter, the maple leaves turn yellow and fall onto the tracks, creating a different kind of beauty. (Taichung City Government Tourism Bureau has obtained public liability insurance.)
