Linbei Kaha Digital Life Center Introduction
Linbei is the best! The Hakka farming culture is vibrant here with "Linbei Card Good"! This unique greeting comes from Linbei, the largest Hakka settlement in Yunlin County, concentrated with Hakka people from Hsinchu and Miaoli areas. The living museum preserves the tobacco buildings that were established due to the tobacco industry in the early days, showcasing and promoting Hakka farming culture. It combines the surrounding learning garden and cultural passages, where visitors can not only enjoy butterfly watching but also learn about the unique features and history of Linnei Township. Currently, there are 23 tobacco buildings remaining in the Linbei community. According to historical records, around 1939, the Japanese introduced tobacco to Taiwan and built tobacco buildings. Yunlin County is one of the main tobacco production areas in Taiwan and is known for having the most and relatively intact tobacco buildings, especially among the Hakka families along the Zhuoshui River.
