Qishan Station - Sugar Rail Story Museum Introduction

Qishan Railway Station was built between 1913 and 1915 (during the Taisho era). The architectural style of the station is referred to as a mock Western style, which was brought to Taiwan by Japanese architecture students. This architectural form merges Japanese, Victorian, and Gothic styles, resulting in an elegant and charming appearance. The entire building exhibits a relaxed and lively rhythm. Its light blue exterior is quite captivating, making it a popular spot for visitors to take photos, and it is also the most well-known landmark in Qishan. The railway station was completely closed in 1978 (the 67th year of the Republic) and has since been restored to become a famous tourist attraction in Qishan, now offering services such as tourism consultation, banana cultural creative products, and bicycle rentals.
