Pine Garden

Pine Garden is a building complex in Hualien with multiple exhibition halls that preserve and display elements from the Japanese colonial period. The spaces are connected by corridors and offer views of how the structure was organized and furnished.

The structure was built in 1943 as a command center during Japanese military occupation. After the war, it served as a rest facility for American military personnel before eventually becoming a museum.

The rooms display how people in Hualien lived across generations, with objects and exhibits showing everyday life through different eras. Visitors can see how local crafts and ways of life took shape in this region.

The site is open daily from 9 AM to 5 PM and is located at 65 Songyuan Street in central Hualien. The grounds have accessible pathways and facilities for visitors with mobility needs.

The grounds offer views of the Pacific Ocean and Hualien city, making it a rare vantage point for this perspective. The connection between building and surroundings gives visitors a different sense of the site's place in the landscape.
