Hualien Railway Workshop

The Hualien Railway Workshop includes specialized maintenance buildings, repair stations, and engineering facilities spread across an industrial complex in eastern Taiwan.

The facility started operations in 1935 during Japanese rule and transformed from a munitions depot into a central railway maintenance hub for eastern Taiwan.

The workshop buildings combine Japanese colonial architecture with industrial design elements, reflecting Taiwan's railway engineering development through the 20th century.

Visitors can reach the workshop using local buses or trains to Hualien station, with guided tours available through the Taiwan Railways Administration.

The workshop maintains original machinery and tools from different periods, documenting the evolution of Taiwan's railway mechanical engineering methods.
