Fongyi Academy Introduction

Fengyi Academy, located next to Chenghuang Temple, was built in 1814 and designated as a Level 3 historic site in 1985. It was constructed by Zhang Tingqing, a candidate for the position of instructor in Fengshan, and originally had 37 rooms. The academy was dedicated to the deities Wenchang, Kuichang, and Cangsheng, and it originally included desks and chairs, serving as a place for students to prepare for exams in ancient times. The architectural details are quite elaborate, making it the largest existing academy in Taiwan. The wall and the stone drums beside the main entrance reflect the careful design considerations during its construction. After renovations planned in 2009, the grounds were enhanced with many cartoon-style statues and two exhibition spaces were created to provide detailed introductions to the history of the academy and its artifacts, combining education with entertainment.
