Lantian Academy, Taiwan, Educational institute in Nantou City, Taiwan
The granite and wood construction of Lantian Academy incorporates traditional architectural elements, including curved roofs and ornate stone carvings from the Qing period.
Established in 1864 after relocating from Caotun, Lantian Academy functioned as a center for Confucian education throughout the late Qing Dynasty period in Taiwan.
Students and scholars at Lantian Academy maintain the tradition of burning incense to honor Confucius and Wenchang Dijun, the patron deity of literature.
The academy welcomes visitors daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with exhibits displaying historical documents and artifacts related to Taiwan's educational heritage.
Following the 921 Earthquake, the government invested 67 million New Taiwan Dollars to restore the academy's original Qing Dynasty architectural features.
