Zhaixing Villa, Historic mansion in Tanzi District, Taiwan.

The villa presents a traditional courtyard layout with multiple buildings arranged around gardens and a decorative pond at the front section.

General Lin Chi-chung commissioned the construction of this residence during the Qing Dynasty era, with work starting in 1871 and finishing in 1879.

The architectural elements of Zhaixing Villa demonstrate the residential design principles and social customs of 19th-century Taiwanese upper class.

The villa contains a coffee shop and souvenir store, with convenient access from Tanzi Station through a short northwestern walk.

The name Zhaixing translates to 'plucking stars', reflecting the elevated position of this municipality-level protected structure.
