貞愛親王殿下御上陸紀念碑，就位於布袋543故事館旁

Located in a small alley in front of the Jiaying Temple in Budai Township, there stands a memorial inscribed by Governor-General of Taiwan, Tien Chien-Chih, titled "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu's Landing in Taiwan." The original monument was erected to commemorate the landing of Prince Chichibu and the Imperial Guard Division at Budai Zui during the 1895 Imjin War. After World War II, the monument was torn down by the principal of a local school and discarded by a wall. It was later used as a foundation by a landlord surnamed Tsai for construction. Following this, a series of unsettling events occurred in the vicinity. Eventually, the descendants of the Tsai family decided to excavate the monument from the old house and perform an ancient ritual to commemorate it, leading to the erection of the new "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu's Landing," which was officially recognized as a historical building by the Chiayi County Government in 2008.

Prince Zheng Ai Landing Memorial Marker Introduction

Located in a small alley next to the 嘉應廟 (Jiaying Temple) in Budai Township, there stands a monument inscribed by Taiwan Governor-General田健治郎 (Tian Jianzhilang) that reads "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu’s Landing in Taiwan." The original monument was erected to commemorate the landing of Prince Chichibu's Imperial Guards during the 1895乙未戰爭 (Yiwei War) in Budai. After World War II, the monument was demolished by the principal of a local school and discarded beside a wall. Later, a landowner named Cai used it as the foundation for a building, after which various unsettling events began to occur in the vicinity. Ultimately, the descendants of the Cai family decided to excavate the monument from the old house, conduct traditional rites, and re-erect the new "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu’s Landing," which was officially designated as a historical building by the Chiayi County Government in 2008.
