Japanese Dormitory of Nancaiyuan, Cultural heritage mansion in Zhongzheng District, Taiwan.

The Japanese Dormitory of Nancaiyuan features wooden architecture with traditional Japanese construction methods and design elements in an established residential area.

Built between 1920 and 1940, this dormitory served as housing for Japanese officials during Taiwan's colonial period before becoming a protected municipal heritage site.

The building represents a fusion of Japanese residential architecture with local Taiwanese construction techniques, reflecting the complex interactions between both societies.

Located near MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station, visitors can access the site through a network of lanes developed during the Japanese colonial era.

The dormitory stands as one of the first Japanese-style residential buildings in Taipei to receive protection under the Cultural Heritage Preservation Act.
