Japanese Imperial Military Landing Monument, Military memorial monument in Lintou Village, Huxi Township, Taiwan.

The monument marks the spot where Japanese troops first set foot on Taiwan in 1895. It sits quietly in a coastal village and serves as a physical reminder of this turning point in the island's past.

The monument was built in 1936 and commemorates the Japanese invasion that launched more than 50 years of colonial rule. This event fundamentally reshaped Taiwan's development and society.

The monument location hosts commemorative events featuring both Taiwanese and Japanese performances, fostering cultural understanding between the two nations.

The monument sits in a rural village and remains open year-round for visitors. The area is relatively quiet, so plan your visit around local conditions and weather.

In 2017, the site hosted a peace-oriented concert featuring a Japanese musician for the anniversary of the landing. This unexpected artistic use connects memory with contemporary culture today.
