Daiton District Office, Historical administrative building in West District, Taichung, Taiwan.
The Daiton District Office features classical architectural elements with continuous arch designs, steel frames, wooden structures, and a combination of sloped and flat roofs.
Constructed in 1924 during the Taisho era, this building served as the primary administrative center for the Daiton District until significant changes occurred after World War II.
The structure represents a fusion of Japanese colonial architecture with traditional Taiwanese elements, showcasing Doric columns, stucco finishing, and decorative stone accents.
Located at 38 Lane 33-2, Minsheng Road, the building can be reached through multiple bus routes operated by Renyou Bus and Taichung Bus services.
The restoration project completed in 2023 preserved the original L-shaped layout comprising north and west wings, maintaining its status as a rare surviving district office from Taiwan's Japanese period.
