History

The culture park used to be a private sugar refinery operating in the region which was built during the Japanese rule of Taiwan. During the World War II, the refinery was bombed.[1] After it had ceased to operation in 1991, a group of art workers moved in and revived the building with the help of Taitung County Government. It was then transformed into showrooms and studios.[2]

Architecture

The culture park consists of bed and breakfast, handicraft shop, coffee house etc.[2] It is mostly made of pebbles, steel bars and driftwood.[3]

Events

The culture park regularly holds various events such as live concerts and dances.[2]
