Xingang Railway Park

Xingang Railway Park, Railway heritage park in Chiayi, Taiwan

Description

Xingang Railway Park is a heritage site in Chiayi featuring restored locomotives and passenger cars positioned along flat pathways. Multiple walking routes of varying lengths wind through the grounds, making it accessible for different activity levels.

History

The railway opened in 1911 to connect communities in the region and was operated under Japanese administration at that time. Additional structures were built over the following years as the line expanded.

Culture

The site tells the story of how rail transport shaped daily life and connections in the region, visible through the structures and routes that remain. Local residents and visitors come here to understand the role this line played in linking communities.

Practical

The flat paths throughout the grounds make walking comfortable and easy for visitors of all ages and abilities. Multiple entry points from different locations in Xingang provide flexibility in planning your route through the park.

A brick-and-wood office building still stands on the grounds with distinctive arched entryways and classical columns from the early 1900s. This structure showcases a construction style that reflects the period when the railway was first established.
