Jiji Railway Station Introduction
Jiji Station is famous for its construction using cypress wood. In the early days, it served as a hub for passengers, bananas, rice, fruits, and timber from nearby towns along the railway. It became a distribution center for agricultural products in the area. After experiencing severe tilting due to the 921 earthquake, the restored Jiji Station retains its traditional Japanese wooden appearance and is currently one of the few remaining train stations from the Japanese colonial era. The quaint town is known for its diverse tourist resources, and next to the renowned Jiji Station, an M24 tank retired from military service is displayed. During holidays, tourists flock here, making it an important and well-known tourist attraction in Jiji Township.
