Chasing steamed trains among the fields in the wind is a joy for bikers in Changhua. Along the tracks, you can weave new and old memories together. Some routes wind through green rice fields or golden ears of rice; some are among colorful flowers and grass. Others climb up and down the hill, allowing you to cycle in the mountains and woods while taking a phytoncide shower with the company of plants. The seasonal silk floss trees, tung flowers, cassia fistula, and kapok avenue are popular check-in spots for internet users. You can also challenge yourself to the long-distance cycling route that spans across the mountains, by the seacoast, and through the plain in Changhua. It is a top choice for professional bikers or people passionate about testing their endurance limits. Those enjoying bike tours are welcome to come and challenge yourselves at the various cycling routes in Changhua County.

Huatan Station

│ No. 273, Huatan St., Huatan Township, Changhua County

│ No. 370, Zhongzheng Rd., Huatan Township, Changhua County

Legend has the station's name changed due to a humorous misunderstanding. During the Japanese colonial time, a Japanese Imperial family member took the train to this station. He was distraught when he heard the station manager shouting “Jiadong jiao,” whose pronunciation is similar to a Japanese word meaning “inferior customer.” Later, the member of the Imperial family acknowledged the word being the station name rather than an intentional curse, so he ordered that the ungraceful name be changed to Huatan. Enthusiastic locals currently set up bike rentals to make it convenient for tourists to have a cycling trip in Huatan.

An idle granary was renovated into a new world of jasmine history and related knowledge. The premium jasmine is integrated with the traditional tea culture, packaged with uniquely designed gift wraps to have won several domestic and international design awards. The related products make Taiwan internationally famous!

Qiaotouzhuandiao Art Park │ Sec. 2, Zhangyuan Rd., Huatan Township, Changhua County ( 24.0254, 120.5513 )

The small community park has many brick sculptures, which are the local pride. The beautiful relief brick wall sculpture, cute animal brickworks full of childlike playfulness, and the elephant slide are all favored by kids. You can discover impressive details everywhere.

Inside, you can find red brick products and the history from the early days. You'll find machinery used in the past and a historical tunnel kiln if you walk further inside. You can also find customized brick sculptures, bricks specifically used for historic monument repair, and brick sculpture lessons. Make haste to witness brick kiln culture's charm.

Yonglin Dude Ranch │ No. 206, Zhengxing Rd., Xiushui Township, Changhua County

The ranch has a small rancho and concession stand. In addition to observing dairy cows, you can purchase panna cotta, yogurt, frozen treats, and toast made from fresh milk. There's also a big grass field with various playground equipment — including a swing and a slide. It's a perfect place for outings with children.

Built in 1726 in the Qing Dynasty, the temple was demolished and then relocated—allowing the temple to be preserved. The temple collects numerous calligraphy works by Qing Dynasty emperors. The giant inscription boards bestowed by the Yongzheng Emperor and Qianlong Emperor hold the most historic value. The Confucius ceremony is held here every September to express respect for Confucius.

The historic and industrial Changhua Sector Garage was built in the Japanese colonial era. It is a well-preser ved treasure of Taiwanese railway culture. Nowadays, you can see steam trains, diesel trains, and electric trains at the roundhouse for maintenance. It is why Changhua Sector Garage is also called the “hotel for trains.”

Lukang was an important Taiwanese port during the Qing dynasty. At that time, many workers would buy pastries to sate their hunger. The requirement led to the creation of the wide, large, and thick oxtongue shaped biscuits. After kneading the dough, add in the malt stuffing. Some shops use matcha or red yeast to make biscuits of different colors. After the dough is placed on the frying table, it will be repeatedly flipped and fried till crispy and golden enough to make you drool.

Hawks Flying over Baguashan Baguashan Hawk-watching Platform (Hawkwatching Trail)

Mar. - Apr.

The grey-faced buzzards stop in Taiwan for a break during their fall and spring migrations. Because they fly northward, across the Baguashan and Dadushan areas, around the Qingming Festival in spring, residents call them “Qingming Birds” or “South Road Hawks.” In October, the birds return to the south, passing by the Manzhou Township of Pingtung around the National Day. Accordingly, they are also called “National Day Birds.” During the days when the conservation concept did not prevail, grey-faced buzzards were hunted in great numbers. It led to the proverb: “Nine thousand South Road Hawks die out of ten thousand.” Hence, the Wild Bird Society Of Changhua started the activity in 1992, hoping that the public might better understand greyfaced buzzards through watching hawks together. Activity arrangement varies every year; hawk watching allows people to witness handsome hawks flying over Baguashan. The activity also spreads the value of respecting wildlife!

Wende Temple Lantern Tower Parade Wende Temple (No. 6, Sec. 3, Zhangyuan Rd., Huatan Township, Changhua County)

Legend has it that Wei-chen Tseng, the first Taiwanese to become a Hanlin Academy official during the Qing Dynasty, once appreciated the lanterns in Beijing City with the Daoguang Emperor. Tseng was saddened that his hometown's elderly residents didn't have the opportunity of admiring the beautiful scenery. He thus resigned and returned home. His filial piety moved the Daoguang Emperor. The Emperor, therefore, granted Baishakeng in Huatan Township the event to “greet lanterns,” as the capital did, for the yearly Lantern Festival. This tradition has since continued for a hundred years. After the Chinese New Year, residents will make paper lanterns and connect twenty-three of these lanterns into a “lantern tower” shaped like a small boat. Each lantern bears its owner's surname, so these lanterns are called “surname lanterns” —a unique tradition in Taiwan. The lantern tower parade's highlights include the Fudegong's eight people sacred palanquin and honor guard, as well as the lantern tower and parade leader. They together tour the lantern tower around streets and lanes in a pilgrimage of peace and safety. Activities include the “Sea of Lanterns Art Zone,” “Pray to Fudegong for Wealth,” “Creative Lantern Tower Competition,” “Zhuangyuan Hand Lantern Distribution,” and “Lantern Tower Pilgrimage.” These activities allow the public to learn about the land tower parade's history and offer rich Lantern Festival vibes.

Ershui International Running Water Festival The Running Water Festival is a uniquely Taiwanese tradition. Legend has it that, over 300 years ago, a man called himself Mr. Lin gave instructions on diverting water to construct the Babao Irrigation Channel (Babaozhen). It led to the success of diverting water for irrigation. To commemorate the irrigation channel's success and to show gratitude to Mr. Lin's instruction, Mr. Lin Temple was built. The traditional purposes of the activity include celebrating bumper harvests due to water diverted by the irrigation channel, praying for blessings, and expressing gratitude. The Running Water Festival also integrates marathon races, traditional ceremonies, humanities, and arts into its noble traditions, turning the event into a festival that both adults and children can enjoy. The activity encourages community interactions and has the Ershui shared.

Tour l a r o l AF Futian Tung Blossom Park At the beginning of summer, the weather is refreshing, and the sun shines on the green woods adorned with white tung flowers. The flowers fall like the winter snow, which is why they're also known as “May snowflakes.” Futian is one of the famous places in Changhua for watching tung flowers fall. The scenery is so beautiful during the tung flower season that you will enjoy walking on the long wood-plank corridor carpeted with May snowflakes, a fairytale-like scene.

Jiulong Giant Banyan From a distance, Jiulong Giant Banyan looks like a dense forest. But when you walk into its shade, you'll be amazed to find it's a single massive tree! Aerial roots and branches branch out endlessly to form the expansive tree group, which takes up about 3,000 square meters. Locals worship the impressive banyan, calling it the Sacred Tree.

The urban development and environmental conservation should be balanced. The artificial wetlands can filter and purify water and reduce water pollution. The restored water ends up in an ecological pool. The vast grass field, clear water, and floating duckweed and lotus appear enchanting under the blue sky with comfortable breezes blow. This little world is a perfect place to take a stroll.

Dadu Estuary Important Wetland The estuar y at the border of Changhua and Taichung is home to many tide-pool c re a t u re s i n t h e i n te r t i d a l zone. Also, the broad, flat environment is one of the essential water-bird habitats on the west coast of Taiwan. It is an excellent place for birdwatchers.

Changhua County Natural Ecological Education Center is also called White Dolphin House. Its shape resembles a jumping dolphin. The center is next to a wetland with great eco-diversities and is a popular place for taking pictures for posting online. Climb up the gable roof covered by green grass, and you'll see a magnificent line of white wind turbines.

Wanggong Ecological Park Fangyuan Township is an important area for oyster and clam farming. Here you can see oyster farmers transporting baskets of freshly harvested oysters to the market on tow-behind carts. When the tides ebb, locals come here to dig for hard clams. You can also join the treasure hunt. In Wanggong, Fangyuan Lighthouse in the distance is a famous landmark. Its black and white stripes make it seem even taller. The blue King's Bow Bridge next to the Wanggong Fishing Port is eye-catching. When you stand on the bridge, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire fishing port. Wanggong is particularly beautiful at sunset. The sea reflects the departing sunlight, which dyes everything a poetic red-orange.

Oyster Harvesting on Buffalo Carriage Changhua has the beautiful wetland scenery of boundless sea and sky. It is also the only place in Asia that preserves the cultural tradition of oyster harvesting with water buffaloes. You can hop on the water buffalo cart and head to the intertidal zone to experience the hard work of oyster farming. Here the smell of sea salt fills the air, and the natural ocean scenery is the perfect setting for a stroll. Roll up your pants and hunt for plump oysters in the intertidal zone, and you can also find hermit crabs scrambling around. The only way to fully understand the local culture is to come and experience it for yourself!

Fubow Ecological Education Park Fubao Village is a dairy farming area. On the way to Fubow Ecological Education Park, you'll see many cow farms. Inside the park are various bird ecosystems. You must register online to take an ecological tour. From March to June every year, the park hosts a black-winged stilt watching event. You can also see all kinds of water birds and transit birds. The best time for bird-watching is when the tides ebb and birds forage on the wetland.

Located in the middle of the Changhua County coast, Hanbao Wetlands suffer minimal human impact. Thanks to that feature, the wetlands are an ideal setting for transit birds to spend their wintertime. As many as 160 species of transit birds come to the place to forage and survive winter each year. Fiddler crabs burrow in and out of the soft sand. In the delightful warm sunlight, you can walk barefoot on the shining black silt, and the shallow water and mud send a cool sensation up from your toes. You'll also find seashells, crabs, clams, oysters, and fish from time to time. Enjoy the wetland fun as all kinds of animals play hide-and-seek Comm on Gre with you. ensh

Baguashan Skywalk

Literary Trails

The winding white Baguashan Skywalk is next to the Baguashan Great Buddha. With access points, the skywalk crosses Guashan Road. In May and June, the royal poinciana bloom, whose bright red petals decorate the green leaves in celebration the upcoming summer. The flowers symbolize blessings for graduates, wishing to have futures as bright as these blooming flowers.

Walking on the Literature Trails feels like strolling into the history of Changhua. Taking the stairs up the 1895 Baguashan Anti-Japanese Martyrs Museum, you'll pass a poem pavilion. The two-story attic-style Tai Chi Pavilion houses the works of 12 poets. From here, you can follow the signs to a silver bridge and a beautiful waterfall, and then go up to experience a peaceful trail filled with insects and bird sounds. You can also feel the deep emotions in the poet's soul at the Lai He Poetry Wall!

Tianzhong Forest Park Trail In the 45-hectare park, there's a trail that winds along the mountain range. The trail has steep grades and offers a wide overview of Tianzhong Township. When the weather is nice, you can even see Zhuoshui River and Taiwan Strait in the distance. On the mountain trail are maple, acacia confusa, santalum, and camphor trees. There are also diverse insect and bird ecosystems.

If you don't want to take the same way back, take the Ershui Temple Trail. You might even see Formosan rock macaques when hiking!

Taoyuanli Forest Trail Complex Located in the mountains near downtown Changhua, this trail is free from city noises. It's refreshing and carefree like a Xanadu, which is how it got the name “Taoyuanli.” This trail has many access points and goes through woods and tall grass that rustles in the wind. The route is flat and suitable for the general public.

The Great Wall

Daling Lane Hiking Trail

The Great Wall Trail is part of the Baiguos Trail Complex. Baiguoshan is known for its products, and candied fruit is a top souv here. As you hike, you'll see all kinds of trees. You can also discover Japanese rhinoc beetles, purple crow butterflies, and warb white-eyes! When you reach the three-s Shangqin Memorial Pavilion, you can look down on the entire Yuanlin area and watch the high-speed railway in action. Many hikers rest, make tea, and chat here!

The Daling Lane Hiking Trail consists of three trails: No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3. These routes are popular among hiking lovers. Each is about 500 meters long. Plants grow on both sides of the trails, filling them with greenery. The eco-diversities along the trails add a lot of fun to hiking.

Old Trail for Fetching Water

Tengshan Trail

Locals searching for water in the foothills discovered a mountain stream flowing with water year-round in the past. So they dug two wells here and built a stone stairway to them. Today people do not need to fetch water, thus turn the place into a popular holiday destination. People can hike and enjoy phytoncides there. When tung flowers bloom from April to May, white petals of the “May snow” fall to the ground and accumulate on the mountain trail. The winding trail covered in flower petals and the torii at the entrance will lure you into the beauty of the mountains.

From April to May, visitors flock to the woods to appreciate the “May snow.” The trail is flat; wooden boards on both sides have riddles written on them. Hikers can brainstorm the answers while gazing at the flowers and hiking. In addition to tung flowers, the trail has all kinds of plants that contribute to the charming scenery.

Baikan Trails

The Baikan Trails are the branch trails of the Great Wall Trail and include the Erbaikan, Sanhaikan, and S i h ba i k a n t r a i l s . B a i k a n means “a trail with many stairs,” so be prepared to climb! Various flowering trees along the way, including tung trees, make the trails enjoyable, especially when the flowers are in bloom. The Sihbaikan Trail leads to the mountain top overlooking Yuanlin. The scene has a unique charm when lights start to go on at sunset.

Longding Historic Trail

Qilinshan Trail

The Longding Historic Trail was previously called the Salt Transport Trail. Locals used to walk through it when doing business between Yuanlin and Nantou. The Longding Historic Trail is also called Dairenkeng Longding Historic Trail, as Dairenkeng means “waiting for people.” In the past, wives of business people would wait here for their husbands to return. Suppose you compare the hardships of people transporting salt in the past with the contemporary leisure of enjoying nature. In that case, the challenging trail seems a bit easier.

Renowned as a “six-star forest trail,” the Qilinshan Trail has beautiful mountain forest scenery. Make sure to stop at Zantian Temple before getting on the trail. The trail is separated into two circular routes; one to the left and the other to the right. Along the way, trees stand tall to shade you from the blazing sun. At the top, you'll have a great view of downtown Tianzhong and its surrounding fields.

Eighteen Turns Historic Trail

Parks Connection Trail

The trail is the road business people and porters used to take to trade salt in Lukang and Xihu long ago. It is thus called the Salt Transport Trail. There aren't many steep grades, and only the last 200+ meters have steep stairs. By the end of the trail is Earth God Temple, surrounded by large pineapple orchards and tea farms on the tableland of Mingjian in Nantou. The panoramic view will make you feel free and refreshed.

The trail links three peaks and features diverse ecosystems and plants. You can smell the pleasant fragrance of sweet devilwood as you walk along and go through the mighty camphor and acacia confusa forests. This trail connects to Zhongyangling Trail.

The famous Haohan Slope is here as well. The trail passes Wufeng Platform and Fu Lok Pavilion, and it has wooden stairs that climb as high as six stories. When you reach the top of the mountain, the incredible scenery and unobstructed view of Changhua make the challenging climb worthwhile. From the end of spring to the beginning of summer, yellow flowers bloom in small spherical heads that poke from the acacia confusa trees, attracting butterflies to flutter among the flowers.

You can see steam, diesel, and electric trains enter the roundhouse for maintenance or regular tune-ups. The roundhouse is also called the Hotel for Locomotives. Changhua Sector Garage started operating in 1922. Located to the north of Changhua Railway Station, the roundhouse is part of the Taiwan Railway Administration's Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot. During the middle period of the Japanese Occupation of Taiwan, railway roundhouses were constructed in Taipei, Hsinchu, Changhua, Chiayi, Kaohsiung, and the Por t of Kaohsiung. These buildings were called railway garages at that time.

In that case, it will be immediately closed to external visitors.

Visiting Rules: 遊客禁止進入作業區

1. Remote control camera drones and selfie sticks are strictly forbidden because the roundhouse has 25KV high voltage equipment and is close to the western mainline. 2. To prevent falling, wearing slippers is strictly forbidden. 3. Please do not touch any equipment there. 4. Climbing stationery vehicles is strictly forbidden (there is 25KV high voltage). 5. Climbing power poles is strictly forbidden (they contain 25KV voltage). 6. Entering the turntable operation zone is strictly forbidden. 7. Entering the roundhouse maintenance zone is strictly forbidden. 8. Please look both ways before crossing the tracks.

Origin of the Sector Garage's Name The Sector Garage is also called the fan-shaped train garage because it looks like an open folding fan when viewed from above. It has a round turntable in the middle, like a fan's rivet. Tracks that radiate outward are like a fan's sticks, and buildings are like a fan's surface. Railway enthusiasts started calling the roundhouse Fan-Shaped Train Garage after Martial law was imposed. The roundhouse is one of the only railway buildings left from the Japanese colonial period.

《Introduction of Angles》

View the Changhua Roundhouse from above. You can see a round turntable in the middle with tracks radiating outward toward stalls within a 99-degree angle. The stall lanes average 8.25 degrees each.

Still, they became known as mechanical engineering depot roundhouses after the retrocession of Taiwan to the Republic of China. When the Taiwan Railway Administration (TRA) started bringing in new locomotives as technology advanced, traditional roundhouses were demolished and replaced with modern maintenance facilities. In 1992, some planned to demolish Changhua Sector Garage and build a new maintenance base for central Taiwan. However, after more than ten rounds of negotiation between local legislators and railway enthusiasts, Changhua Sector Garage was preserved. It was registered as a county-designated monument on October 25, 2000, by the Changhua County Government.

Changhua Sector Garage Timeline of Significant Events 1887 1922

Ground Level Maintenance Platform for the 8th - 12th Stalls

Trains in the Changhua Sector Garage

It is a traditional platform used to maintain steam locomotives in the early days. It is currently for parking locomotives or conducting temporary checks or maintenance work.

Chimney The Sector Garage was initially built for steam locomotives, so every stall's roof has one chimney on both ends. There are 24 chimneys in total, a feature unique to this roundhouse.

CK101 Steam Locomotive The CK101 was manufactured by Kisha Seizo Co., Ltd. in Osaka, Japan. There were eight locomotives of this type in the world at that time. It was mainly to pull branch line passengers, freight trains, and shunting. Its tractive effort was 8,120 kilograms. After the CK101 locomotive retired in December 1974, it was preserved in the Chiayi Mechanical Engineering Depot's roundhouse. The CK101 was later sent back to the Taipei machine factory in May 1997. After a year's hard work on restoration, it resumed operation on Taiwan Railway Day (June 9th). It took a round-island trip from September 20th to 21st and then was stationed at the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot.

Turntable When you enter the Changhua Sector Garage, you can see the mechanical engineering staff busy maintaining and operating locomotives. It's a must-see scene. In the middle of the roundhouse is a platform called a turntable that rotates for parking locomotives. This turntable rotates 360 degrees and has tracks radiating outward from its center, so locomotives can enter and exit the roundhouse or turn around. In the early days, the vision was somewhat limited for engineers operating steam locomotives. The turntable made it easier for steam locomotives to navigate the roundhouse. The Changhua Sector Garage 's turntable consists of four main components: turning pit, structured bridge turntable (platform), circular track, and control room. In the early days, it required human force to move the turntable. Whenever locomotives needed shunting or turned, the staff had to move the turntable carefully. Now an electric motor has replaced human force, saving the TRA staff much energy.

CK124 Steam Locomotive The CK124 steam locomotive was manufactured by the Japanese company Nippon Sharyo in 1936. Like the CK120, the CK124 is a C12 type locomotive. What makes the CK124 unique is that it has smoke guides installed on both sides. There were seven CK120 type locomotives in Taiwan. It was the primary type used on several branch lines, including the Jiji line. In June 1979, the CK124 retired and was moved to the Xinbeitou Metro Station. After the Xinbeitou MRT construction started, the locomotive was transferred to the Xinbeitou employee training center. The CK124 was then moved back to the Taipei machine factory by the end of 2000. Undergoing seven months' restoration, it resumed operation on June 9th, 2001 (Taiwan Railway Day), becoming the second steam locomotive to return to the TRA tracks from retirement. Today you can see the locomotive in many special activities, such as the Ershui International Water Running Festival! Because the locomotive is glossy black and decorated with golden paint, many rail enthusiasts call it “Lady.”

DT668 Steam Locomotive The DT668 steam locomotive is a DT650 type. There were 37 DT650 locomotives in Taiwan, all made from 1939 to 1951 by companies like Kawasaki Heavy Industries Rolling Stock Company, Hitachi, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. The DT668 was manufactured by the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Rolling Stock Company in 1941 and retired on February 28 th, 1983. The initial plan was to preserve it in the Railway Museum. In August 1993, the DT668 was transported to Linluo Sports Park in Pingtung County. It was the last locomotive the TRA sent out for exhibition. In 2000, the Pingtung County Government returned the DT668 to the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA). TRA then sent it to the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot's roundhouse for preservation. In November 2010, the repair work was outsourced. After being tested and checked in November of 2011, the locomotive was stationed at the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot on January 18th, 2012. DT668 has the most excellent tractive effort and tonnage of all the TRA's steam locomotives, so it's called the King of Steam Locomotives. The type left in Taiwan is four locomotives: the DT651 in the Chiayi County D o n g s h i To w n s h i p B e n g a n g ko u Gangkougong, the DP652 in the Tainan City Sports Park , and the DT675 in the New Taipei City Arts Center in Banqiao.

In 1972, TRA started the electrification of the western mainline. The design and electromechanical parts were manufactured by the British General Electric Company and then transported to South Africa for assembly. The system was eventually introduced in batches into Taiwan in 1976. These locomotives were the first electric locomotives in Taiwan. At that time, the E100 type was mainly to pull passengers and freight trains without air conditioning. Since 2002, these locomotives were gradually scrapped because they were in bad shape and useless. There is only one E101 left in Taiwan and is parked in the maintenance garage south of the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot.

Three-story Maintenance Platform for the 1st and 2nd Stalls

Af ter the R20 diesel-electric locomotive was stationed at the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot for maintenance, the 3rd–7th stalls were reconstructed into a twostory platform to make maintenance work more manageable.

In 1980, the E100 electric locomotive was assigned to the Changhua Mechanical Engineering Depot for maintenance. The 1st and 2 nd stalls were reconstructed into the multi-level style platform for both diesel-electric and electric locomotives. These stalls are mainly used to check and repair highvoltage equipment on top of the locomotives (such as pantographs).

From 1960 to 1966, the American GM-EMD R20 type pulled the first air-conditioned train in Taiwan, the Kuan Kuang Hao Express. In 1970, it pulled the Chu-Kuang Express. Currently, it pulls freight trains and non-electric local passenger trains. In addition, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent four locomotives, R56-R59, to Malawi in July of 2006.

S300 Diesel-Electric Locomotive

Diesel-Electric Locomotive Engine Assembled Robot When you enter the Changhua Sector Garage, you can see “robots” welcoming you. They have shiny black bodies and hold long poles and shields. They look like soldiers standing guard. The TRA staff assembled the two robots with scrapped parts from diesel-electric locomotives, including diesel injectors, pistons, cylinder liners, inspection covers, arm clamps, fork connecting rod bearings, camshaft bearings, air blower covers, inspection cover crossbeams, fuel branch manifolds, piston sheaths, connecting rods, and hanging frames. The statues are more than scrap metal. They are an accessible presentation of the rigid mechanical parts for the public to take pictures with.

The S300 locomotives were made in 1966 by the American GM-EMD company. After being transported to Taiwan, they were distributed to mechanical engineering depots in different regions to carry out shunting missions: in Taipei, Kaohsiung, and Hualien. Some of them were to haul freight (for example, from Changhua Station to the Changhua Formosa Plastics' factory). This locomotive features a noseless (short end shield) design. It also has a three-piece driver's window to enhance visibility for shunting work. The S300 uses only two D75MC traction motors. The motors are installed in the middle of the locomotive's bottom rack, sending power to the bogies on both ends as a drive shaft. This lightweight locomotive's top speed is 75 kilometers per hour. Most locomotives have retired or been scrapped, and S318 is the only one still shunting at the Changhua roundhouse.

In 2002, the DHL101 prototype was manufactured by the Japanese Niigata Engineering Co., Ltd. The locomotive was then transported to Taiwan for testing. After some design details were modified, it was sent to Taiwan Rolling Stock Company, which then assembled 15 locomotives. In terms of output characteristics, diesel locomotives still have high torque at a low speed. Because diesel locomotives don't require as much electrical equipment, they're lighter than their diesel-electric counterparts. This lightweight makes diesel locomotives suitable for routes with substandard tracks. The DHL100 diesel train has a convex design that gives the driver's compartment overlooking ahead and back. This design makes maintenance more accessible than it is on regular aisle-less box-shaped trains. The DHL100 is used to pull locomotives during shunting between stations, and it is to pull branch line trains and mainline rescue trains.

To enhance the tractive effort of diesel-electric locomotives, TRA purchased from American General Motors Company's EMD factory in 1973 large-scale trains specifically for the mainline. This batch of dieselelectric locomotives' initial factory form was G22CU. Their driving-axle design and electrical equipment are more complicated than those of the previously purchased R100 type (original factory form G22U), so they were named the R150 type. The R150s were shipped to Taiwan in October 1973.

According to the Ta Pei Pu Sa Chuan Stone Tablet passed down from the Tang dynasty and folktales, King Miaozhuang had three smart and pretty daughters. The first and second daughters liked to dress themselves up like normal girls, and they obeyed their father's marriage arrangement. The third daughter, Miao Shan, had dressed plainly since she was little. She was unwilling to get married, so she ran off to Baique Temple to become a nun. After hearing the news, King Miaozhuang was furious and ordered that the Baique Temple be burned down. He wanted to force Miao Shan to return home to everyday life. But Miao Shan was ver y determined to practice Buddhism. She escaped the temple and led a solitary monastic life. Because King Miaozhuang destroyed the temple and slandered Buddhism, he contracted a mysterious disease that gave him a face tumor. No doctors could treat his illness. At that time, a daoshi visited him and said his child's hands and eyes could only cure the disease as prescribed medicine. King Miaozhuang did not wish to hurt his daughters, but he also wanted to survive. As he was struggling, Miao Shan rushed back home and volunteered to sacrifice her hands and eyes, and ultimately her life, to cure her father. It happened to be on June 19th, when Princess Miao Shan reached Bohdi and was transformed into a thousand-armed, thousand-eyed image that helps those in need. The world knows her as the Avalokiteśvara.

The origin and history of the Lukang Longshan Temple There are 5 Longshan temples in Taiwan with long histories. They are as the following, following the chronological order based on the dynasties when they were constructed: Tainan Longshan Temple, Fengshan Longshan Temple, Mengjia Longshan Temple, Lukang Longshan Temple, and Tamsui Longshan Temple. All these temples were named “Longshan Temple” and dedicated to Guanyin. As research reveals, all their bunrei is from the Anhai Longshan Temple in Quanzhou, Fujian. As early as 1,500 years ago, people in Quanzhou, Fujian, began worshiping Guanyin during the Sui dynasty. Before the Mazu religion, fishermen, especially in the coastal area of Quanzhou, would pray to Guanyin for her blessing of safety before they set sail. Between the end of the Ming dynasty and the beginning of the Qing dynasty, people from Quanzhou crossed the ocean to Taiwan. They brought to Taiwan the Guanyin religion, whose bunrei originated from the Anhai Longshan Temple.

Architecture Guide From the front to the back of the Longshan Temple, the spaces are, respectively, Shanmen, Wumen Hall, and Theater Stage (Theater Pavilion), Worship Hall, Main Hall, and Rear Hall. Having been damaged, the traditional historic building required multiple restoration and maintenance to make possible preservation. Longshan Temple's current look is the style from the rebuilding in 1831. The whole temple takes up over 5,000 square meters and consists of four strata, three gardens, and eight pillars.

Wumen Hall Each of the dragon pillars is 260 centimeters tall with a 30-centimeter diameter. Historical records state that the pillars were rebuilt in 1831. Carved into a round limestone pillar, one dragon on one pillar moves downward as though descending with the clouds. The other dragon swirls upward. The concept originated from I Ching, symbolizing the “meeting of sky and land energy; all creatures grow endlessly.” Only two pairs of this style of dragon pillar remain in Taiwan. The other pair is located in the Front Hall of the Mazu Temple in Neipu, Pingtung.

The Eighteen Arhats are Gautama Buddha's followers who attained enlightenment. Buddha told them not to enter the state of Nirvana but stay on earth to convert people to Buddhism. Taming Tiger Arhat is an original sculpture work from the Qing dynasty. The other sculptures were remade in 1927 by the sculptor A-po Tsai.

Also sculpted into the pillar are four auspicious animals—a phoenix, female unicorn, crane, and turtle— m e a n i n g “ r a re a n d p re c i o u s , auspicious and long-lived.”

Note: Nirvana means a state of no life or death but beyond time and space. It is unaffected by the cycle of life and death. Nirvana is the highest level of Buddhist practice.

Respect Words Pavilion In the past, literature was very prevalent in Lukang. People respected words so highly that they wouldn't dispose of paper containing words. Instead, they would send paper to this pavilion for burning, showing their respect to Confucius and writers.

Rear Hall The octagonal body of the dragon pillar is 280 centimeters tall with a 30-centimeter diameter. Rebuild in 1836, the pillar was sculpted with the Guanyinshan Stone from northern Taiwan. The pillar adopts the single dragon style. The dragon holds beads in its four claws supporting its chin, and there is a bead in its mouth. The pillar is partially hollowed out for decoration.

Tiger Wall Sculpture

On the dragon wall sculpture, the dragon flies in the sky, and two carp are in the sea of clouds symbolizing “fish leaping over the dragon gate.” On the tiger wall sculpture, the big tiger jumps off the hill while watching the little tiger. Swinging pine trees are sculpted in the back, symbolizing “tiger roars, wind arises.”

Bogu and flowers It is located on the walls of both sides and presented with high and low relief sculptures. The wall sculpture on the right features a bat, incense furnace, and peach, which respectively represent “happiness, wealth, longevity.” Altogether these images symbolize extreme auspiciousness. The wall sculpture on the left contains a peony, flower vase, table, pumpkin, pomegranate, and Buddha's hand, together representing “wealth, safety, many children, and bliss.”

Look, where are the shrimp soldiers and crab generals?

Note: Bogu is a word originating from the Sung dynasty. Later generations used the term to refer to auspicious objects.

Menshen (Door God) painting Four Heavenly Kings

The Lukang Longshan Temple has nine pairs of menshen (Door God) paintings. Five are in the Wumen Hall, three in the Main Hall, and one in the Rear Hall.

Called the Four Guardian Gods, Dhatarattha holds a pipa to move the mundane with music. Virūlhaka holds a sword to help grow good roots in people. Virūpakkha holds a small dragon to see people in pain. Vessarana holds a precious umbrella to tackle monsters and devils.

Front Gate of Wumen Hall Wumen Hall has five gates, so there are five pairs of Menshen (Door God) paintings. The front gate has images of Wei Tuo and Sangharama. On the left and right sides, the Menshen (Door God) are the Four Heavenly Kings in Buddhism: “Dhatarattha, Virūlhaka, Virūpakkha, Vessarana.” They respectively hold “pipa, precious sword, precious umbrella, and a small dragon,” altogether symbolizing a peaceful world. The arch Menshen (Door God) closest to the outside is, on the dragon side, a civil official holding a Dharma wheel with one hand and an official hat and deer with another. It meansIt “being promoted with a salary increase.” The tiger side Menshen (Door God) holds peony and jue, symbolizing “wealth and higher official rank.”

Shanmen Eight square pillars are to support the building, and 4 round pillars hold the roof above. The roof's central ridge, hanging ridge, and angular ridge are all painted in white. If you look closely, you can see the peony, phoenix, and softshell turtle design. The roof's red tiles appear unique and elegant, along with the sharp and raised white swallow's tail. Note: Shanmen, also called Three Gates, represents the “three gateways to liberations” in Buddhism, meaning "Kong, Wuxiang, Wuyuan." The purpose of shanmen is to lead people to comprehend and liberate them from karma gradually. Another explanation is that this structure gives believers a target to find the temple's gate.

Medicine Buddha

Amitabha is the leader of the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. He is the Tryadhva-Buddha, and the Medicine Buddha of the Eastern Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli and Gautama Buddha of the Saha World. During the Japanese colonial era, many Taiwanese Buddhist temples became branches of Japanese temples, including the Lukang Longshan Temple. The Joganji Buddhist Temple in Kyoto, Japan, delivered a wooden Amitabha statue to Taiwan in 1905. The statue's standing posture and image of light radiating from behind show the characteristics of Buddhist statues in Japanese culture. It is currently enshrined in the middle of the Rear Hall.

Known for his merciful vow to save all beings from all pains. He vowed not to achieve Buddhahood until all hells were emptied.

Enshrined in the Main Hall's shrine, the statue's entire body is copper without any painting. The eyes are slightly closed. The statue sits crosslegged, with hands on legs in Dhyāna Mudrā. The head wears a Seven Treasure Five Buddhas Crown, and the body is dressed in the Tang dynasty style. The statue is about 42 centimeters tall. It has the Guanyin image from the end of the Ming dynasty. The Guanyin statue is the temple's most significant treasure.

The four stone tables in the left aisle gallery are manufactured respectively in different time sections. “Longshan Temple Rebuild Journal” and “Quanzhou and Xiamen Jiao Merchants Donation Stone Tablet” were in 1831. “Guanyin Birthday Fund Stone Tablet”was made in 1847 and“Lukang Longshan Temple Restoration Stone Tablet” in 2008. From these stone tablets, you can learn about their history and relationships with the Anhai Longshan Temple. They are important historical artifacts.

The Main Hall's most giant Guanyin statue is in the Main Hall. Built in 1961, the statue was ordered by a Buddhist nun surnamed Wang from Lu Shan Hsuan on Dihua Street in Taipei. The statue was made with the bodiless lacquering method, which originated from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The technique ensures that the figure is lighter and easier to transport and less likely to be damaged by wind, sunlight or rain.

The “flying fish” with a dragon head and fishtail has wings car ved out on its dragon body. The image implies, “Take the first place and pass the Imperial Examination with flying colors.”

Auspicious lion

The Front Hall has a painting of auspicious lions. The lion next to a colorful ball is male, and the one with a cub is female. The following two paintings are on the roof eaves of the Rear Hall. The lack of color makes the sculptor's sophisticated technique stand out even more. The gourd and official stamp next to the lion symbolize bless and official post. The crane with a lingzhi in its beak means “longevity and health.” The pineapple means “good luck,” and the pumpkin and pomegranate represent “many children.”

Bagua Caisson

On er stage, there are often Chinese opera and music performances. In the Qing dynasty, n music was spread to Taiwan from the egion by the Han Chinese immigrants! The uying Club's performance is very impressive, tivated many nanguan music talents.

The oldest engraved plaque in the temple is the “Fa Yu Ju Lai” gifted by Chin-yun Chang, then Magistrate of Chiayi County, in 1830. There was a severe famine in Chiayi that year, so Magistrate Chang went to the temple to pray for rain. Heavy rains came the next day. To thank Guanyin for her mercy toward the world, the Magistrate gifted this engraved plaque.

Revered since the Sung dynasty by the Taiwanese people as the Goddess of the Sea, Mazu has also been called Madame, Fei, Tianfei, and Tianhou. Today, p e o p l e re f e r to h e r m o re intimately as Mazu or Mazupo. Legend has it that Mazu was originally a Fujianese woman in the Sung dynasty. She came from a good family that, for generations, worked as officials. One night, Guanyin entered her mother's dream and gave her mother a pill. Her mother, Ms. Wang, woke up to find herself pregnant. On March 23rd, in the year 960 of the Chinese Lunar Calendar, a bright ray of red light shot in the room and filled the house with fragrance. A baby was born at this moment. The newborn didn't cry for a month, so she was named Mo, meaning silence. People nickname her Lin Moniang. Lin Mo was intelligent and intellectual. She liked to burn incense, worship Buddha, and recite Buddhist texts. Also, she loved helping people. When Lin Mo was 13, Daoshi Hsuang Tung taught her the Xuan Wei secret method. Lin Mo used the technique to cure numerous people of diseases. She could also predict auspicious and ominous events, preventing many maritime disasters and winning people's admiration and respect. When she grew up, Lin Mo vowed to do good and help the world. She devoted herself to saving fishermen from death at sea, and she never married. All fishermen said that Lin Mo came dressed in red whenever there was a maritime disaster to protect people from danger. On September 9th, in the year 987 of the Chinese Lunar Calendar, Lin Mo got up early, put on makeup, got dressed, bid farewell to her family, and climbed up Mei Mountain alone. As she rose, beautiful music came from the sky, and slowly an enormous colorful cloud floated toward her. Lin Mo stepped on the bright cloud and gradually ascended into the sky.

Lukang Mazu Temple's Timeline of Significant Events

1591

The History of Mazu's Arrival in Taiwan The Mazu Temple was founded in 1591 when immigrants built a small Mazu temple at Chuan Tsai Tou (north of the current site). It later became a large temple in 1647. In 1683, Shi Lang and his subordinate Lan Li asked that the statue of the second original bunrei of Mazu be brought with the army to Taiwan. When Shi Lang was about to lead the army back the next year, his cousin Shih-pang Shih and nephew Chi-ping Shih asked that the second original bunrei of Mazu be kept in Taiwan to bless the Taiwanese people. In 1719, Shih-pang Shih successfully built the Babao Irrigation Canal (Babaozhen). The number of Han Chinese landing in Lukang for reclamation increased day by day. Many of the newcomers were Mazu believers. In 1725, Shi Shibang donated land for the temple to be relocated to the current place, as its old site was too small. In appreciation of his contribution, Shi Shibang's spirit tablet is enshrined in the right-wing of the Mazu Temple.

Trades between Lukang and coastal cities and towns in China were frequent. People wished to pray for maritime safety.

Stories of Qianliyan and Shunfeng'er Two Versions::

Bagua caisson

《Legend 1》 Two brothers serving as warriors of King Zhou of the Shang dynasty became wandering ghosts on the battlefield. Discontent with their fate, they practiced hard and turned into monsters, who could see far into the distance and hear any sound carried upon the wind. They lived on Peach Blossom Mountain and often descended to cause disturbances and harm people. Mazu eventually tamed the two monsters. They changed from evil to good, becoming generals at Mazu's side.

《Legend 2》 Qianliyan was initially the Gold General, and Shunfeng'er was the Water General in the sky. The Jade Emperor instructed t h e g e n e r a l s to d e s c e n d to Pe a c h Blossom Mountain and wait for Mazu to attain enlightenment. After Mazu became a god, the generals helped her rescue people at sea and resolved ominous events on land.

Located on the ceiling of the San Chuan Hall, the caisson structure is separated into two layers. The bottom layer consists of 24 sets of “dougong” in the shape of a Bagua. Each node has characters such as the Eight Immortals, Fisherman, Woodcutter, Farmer, and Scholar from the outside to the inside. The hanging bucket is the Four Admirers. The internal layer of the caisson is formed with 16 sets of “dougong,” and each layer is concentrated in the apex, where the bright mirror part has carved lotus.

Qianliyan

An engraved plaque and toad sculpture The Po Hai Meng Hsiu engraved plague is under the Bagua caisson at the San Chuan Hall. The Lukang Li Fan Tungchih Lan-pei Wang wrote it in 1830. Po Hai refers to the Taiwan Strait, a dangerous undercurrent that people needed to cross when coming from China to Taiwan in the early days. The engraved plaque means, “Thanks to Mazu's blessing, people shall arrive safely at Taiwan.” Above the engraved plague is a pair of toad sculptures. One toad holds a chrysanthemum in its mouth, symbolizing longevity and auspiciousness. In contrast, the other's mouth has Catharanthus roseus, representing perpetual spring weather in all seasons.

In Mazu temples, you will often hear or see “First Mazu, Second Mazu, Original Mazu,” among other epithets. However, they are referring to the same Holy Heavenly Mother—Mazu. In the early days, there was only one Mazu statue that believers worshipped and enshrined. However, as her popularity increased, the temples were built even more extensively, and Mazu's workload increased. Therefore, she needed bunrei to share the work. “Original” or “First Mazu” usually refers to the earliest Mazu invited into the temple. “Hall Keeping Mazu” stays in the temple and does not go out for a pilgrimage to inspect. Nor does she accept believers' invitation to outdoor duties; instead, she explicitly keeps the Mazu Temple in place.

Gold Mazu

Ship's Bow Mazu

Second original bunrei of Mazu

Shi Lang first invited the Meizhou Mazu to Taiwan, and she was kept later in Lukang for people to worship. This Mazu statue originally had a pink face with a dignified, plain yet elegant style, and a Dharma wheel in her hand. However, her popularity and hundreds of years of incense burning turned the statue into black and brown from the smoke. Accordingly, believers also call her Black Faced Mazu. Because this Mazu statue is ancient, it will only be invited out of her shrine at 11:15 pm on Chinese New Year's Eve and on Mazu's Birthday, March 23rd of the Chinese Lunar Calendar.

Hall Keeping Mazu

The statue, newly crafted when the Lukang Mazu Temple was rebuilt during the Shōwa era, is made of clay. It is the biggest Mazu statue in the Main Hall's shrine.

Second Hall Keeping Mazu

This Mazu is a soft statue, and it is the second Mazu statue in the Main Hall's shrine. During the Tongzhi Emperor's Reign, it was made by the Quanzhou “Hsi Lai Map” sculptor Yung-Chuan Lien.

In 1800, the Lukang Mazu Temple assembled a group of pilgrims to go to Meizhou. The locals suggested hiring a famous Quanzhou sculptor to make a Mazu statue based on the merciful face of the Meizhou Ancestral Temple's Second Hall Keeping Mazu. The bunrei is enshrined in the Lukang Mazu Temple.

Ku Mazu

In 1831, 12 villages of Xiamen suffered from a famine. Villagers respectfully invited Mazu to each village for them to worship and pray for a good harvest. The Mazu invited by the villagers was the Ku Mazu, also called Good Harvest Mazu.

Pilgrimage Mazu

In 1922, the Quanzhou “Hsi Lai Map” sculptor was hired to remake a Mazu statue based on the Meizhou Second Original Mazu's image. The pilgrims to Meizhou, China, will bring this Mazu statue with them, which is why it is called Pilgrimage Mazu.

Gold Mazu

In 2002, pieces of gold believers donated over the years were used to make a pure gold Mazu statue. Two virgin gold palace maid statues were also made to serve at Mazu's side.

Ship's Bow Mazu

In the early days, people crossing the ocean to reach Taiwan would enshrine a Mazu statue on the boat. She might bless them with a safe and smooth trip.
