War and Peace Memorial Park Exhibition Center, Memorial center in Beigan, Taiwan.
The War and Peace Memorial Park Exhibition Center is a memorial site in Beigan that includes galleries, exhibition areas, and outdoor spaces spread across a large property. The grounds once held three military fortifications that were later transformed into exhibition spaces for public use.
The site was built on the grounds of three military fortifications from the Chinese Civil War period and opened to visitors in 2010. The conversion of defensive structures into a public space marked a shift in how the area would be used and understood.
The galleries present military items, household objects from the period, and contemporary art that reflect how local communities experienced conflict and maintained their identity. Visitors can see how daily life and cultural traditions persisted alongside military presence.
The site sits on a large property with both indoor and outdoor areas, so plan for adequate time and wear comfortable walking shoes. Most areas are accessible, though some paths cross uneven ground that can become slippery in wet weather.
The site preserves original bunkers and defensive structures that visitors can enter, showing how soldiers lived and worked in these spaces. These intact installations offer a rare glimpse into everyday life within a military environment.
