Trip features / Most people who visit Zhongxing New Village for sightseeing and relaxation use the big parade ground, the parks and the children's playground for kite-flying and other family leisure activities, or visit exhibitions at the Taiwan Historical and Cultural Park, the Provincial Government Archives and the Hushan Art Museum. We have carefully planned an intellectual itinerary different from the usual one, taking you to discover the unique historical value and cultural landscape of Zhongxing New Village, to see the development trajectory and architectural features of the state-owned dormitories here, and to see how Zhongxing New Village, originally a stretch of dry farmland when the town was founded, became under the careful planning of those before us a garden city with a diverse range of tree species and beautiful greenways.
