Wu Chao-Hsun Calligraphy Museum Introduction
Lukang is primarily promoted for its "three abundances": rich historical sites, many cultural artisans, and a wide variety of snacks. Strolling through the streets and alleys, one can encounter the indispensable cultural heritage of "calligraphy and painting." The talented calligrapher Wu Chao-Hsun, whose courtesy name is Dun-Ben and sobriquet is Wan-Hao San-Ren, states that calligraphy, as part of the development of written language, conveys thoughts and emotions with an Eastern flair. It combines the beauty of visual arts with the vibrancy of cultural heritage, representing a deep connection between the soul and nature. For thousands of years, Chinese people have devoted themselves to the boundless world of calligraphy, expressing that it is both "art" and "way." In 2005, the teacher was also awarded the Special Excellence Award by the Presidential Office during the New Year Writing Event.
