Historical Background: "Beigang Chun Living Museum" originated from Mr. Wu Chuntang, who was involved in Taiwan's lumber and woodworking industry. With the ban of logging in Taiwan in 1991, in recent years Mr. Wu Chuntang decided to plant trees back in the land that nurtured him as a gesture of gratitude to Beigang and the heavens. In 2013, he founded the "Beigang Spring Living Museum" with the hope of passing down carpentry skills. In the exhibition area of "Beigang Chun Living Museum," one can smell the elegant scent of Hinoki wood. Throughout the museum area, there are many local art installations and traditional crafts. The park also includes children's play areas, dining areas, outdoor leisure areas, DIY woodworking activities, and woodworking classrooms. Beginner courses, advanced courses, and detailed instructions are available. The main goal of the museum is to promote traditional carpentry culture to a wider audience.

Author 作家I am an American expat who has extensive experience living, working, and traveling in Taiwan. In my day, I had to learn many things about Taiwan the hard way. But I have come to learn that Taiwan is one of the best places in the world for Foreigners to live. This blog does not represent the opinions of every foreigner in Taiwan. I am just trying to help others learn more about this beautiful country. Archives 檔案
