Handmade Kiln Introduction
The Handmade Kiln is located in the direction of Puli from Sun Moon Lake, on the right side of National Route 21. It features a tropical flair in its appearance. By browsing the buildings and installations in the park, one can feel the carefree creativity of the owner. The rugged wooden sculptures are filled with a primitive charm, and the design and construction of the exhibition area and restaurant seem to be the result of the owner's casual touch, thus providing a relaxed atmosphere for those walking through the park. Visitors can pay 150 NTD to roll up their sleeves and enjoy the pleasure of hand-pulling clay. It's a delightful experience for families to enjoy together. The beautiful and friendly name "Handmade Kiln" was conceived by the owner, Wu Chi-bin, at four o'clock in the morning on the day of the opening. He woke his wife to get her opinion, and thus the Handmade Kiln in Zhongming Village was established. Wu Chi-bin's home was originally the tourist service center of the Zhongming community and also served as a handmade kiln for pottery. Every brick and tile was carefully built by Mr. Wu himself, including the pottery classroom, the house, the guesthouse, as well as a suspended bridge and pavilion. There is also a wooden sculpture on the main building telling the story of Mr. Wu's journey from a fish seller's child to where he is today.
