Tongxiao Shrine, Shinto shrine in Tongxiao Township, Miaoli County, Taiwan.
The shrine features Southern Fujian architectural elements with a distinctive Swallow-Tail ridged roof design, distinguishing it from traditional Japanese structures.
Built in 1937 during Japanese colonial rule, the shrine underwent transformation in 1947 when it was converted into a memorial for Republic of China soldiers.
The structure represents multiple cultural transitions, from its origins as a Shinto shrine to its current role honoring figures like Koxinga.
Visitors can reach the shrine through an 8-minute walk from Tongxiao Station, with additional access via National Highway bus services and local roads.
The shrine survived the 1999 Jiji earthquake and received historical monument status in 2002, leading to restoration initiatives that preserved its architectural elements.
