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 Jiaying Temple in Budai Township, there is a monument inscribed by Governor-General of Taiwan,田健治郎, which reads "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Kitashirakawa Yoshihisa's Landing in Taiwan." The original monument was erected to commemorate the landing of Prince Kitashirakawa Yoshihisa and his Imperial Guards during the 1895 Battle of Boshin. After World War II, the monument was toppled by the principal of a local school and discarded next to a wall. Later, a landowner with the surname Cai used it as a foundation for a house. Following that, unrest began to occur in the area, leading the descendants of the Cai family to decide to excavate the monument from the old house, perform traditional rituals, and re-erect the new "Monument to His Imperial Highness Prince Kitashirakawa Yoshihisa's Landing," which was officially designated as a historical building by Chiayi County Government in 2008.

Prince Zhengai Memorial Monument Introduction

Located in a small alley in front of the Jia Ying Temple in Budai Township, there stands a monument inscribed by Taiwan Governor-General Tan Kenjiro, which reads "Memorial Monument for His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu's Landing in Taiwan." The original monument was erected to commemorate the landing of Prince Chichibu and the Imperial Guards Division at Budai during the Taiwan Expedition of 1895. After World War II, the monument was demolished by the principal of a local school and disposed of by the wall. Later, it was used as a foundation for a house by a local landlord with the surname Tsai. Following this, various unsettling events began to occur in the area. Ultimately, the descendants of the Tsai family decided to excavate the monument from the old house, hold a traditional ceremony for it, and re-erect the new "Memorial Monument for His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu's Landing" that we see today. In 2008, it was announced as a historical building by the Chiayi County Government.
