Liming New Village, Planned residential community in Nantun District, Taichung, Taiwan.
Liming New Village is a planned residential community in Taichung with housing units, parks, and green spaces arranged in an organized layout. The site contains a gymnasium, police station, and government office buildings distributed throughout the grounds.
The village was created in the 1970s when government agencies relocated from Taipei to the former Sancuo Farm area near Taichung railway station. This move was part of Taiwan's policy to decentralize administrative functions away from the capital.
The neighborhood has a traditional market where residents gather to shop. The buildings show how Taiwan designed residential areas for government workers and their families during the post-war period.
The village is best explored on foot since it is designed as one connected area. The main pathways are easy to identify and most facilities are located near each other.
A stone plaque from 1975 marks the completion of the residential buildings. A small creek to the west reminds visitors of the area's former agricultural use.
