勝興站站長宿舍 - Miaoli County

Shengxing Station Station Master's Dormitory well refurbished But it doesn't seem to be possible to visit

1. The nearby buildings are antique and can be regarded as a scenic spot in Miaoli. 2. If you want to take a small train, you must make an appointment in advance, otherwise there will be no seats on site.

I was very lucky to have a ride on the rail bike! The station as a whole and the surrounding environment are very good, with a few parking spaces

Originally the stationmaster's dormitory during the Japanese occupation period, it has been renovated and opened to tourists in recent years, retaining its original appearance. It is also one of the important attractions for many tourists to punch in and take pictures.

It is the landmark of Shengxing Station on the old railway. The market and old street next to it are very lively during holidays. You can also take pictures on the railway tracks. Since it is a Hakka settlement, nearby businesses mainly focus on Hakka cuisine, and there are also shops full of tea-making experience. In addition, electric trains (railway bicycles) need to be booked online before they have the opportunity to ride, and the parking lot does not need to be parked before entering the old street. After entering the old street, there is still a private parking lot with the same price and a lot of parking spaces.

The stationmaster's dormitory, also known as the No. 2 official residence, is a part of the entire Shengxing station historical site. Built in Showa 16 (1941), it was originally used as the official residence of the postmaster and deputy postmaster until it was rebuilt after the war. The two units were opened up into one unit, and then the rooms and scaffolding at the back were successively added, and it was renamed the stationmaster's dormitory. Only the stationmaster's dormitory and the No. 3 official dormitory are preserved in the surrounding railwaymen's dormitory group. The buildings have a strong Japanese style, showing the rich construction techniques of the time. After the restoration was completed in 1999 (2010), it has been opened for public viewing. The Japanese-style dormitory is adjacent to the residential houses on the north side, and is bounded by the water canal to the south and west. The building foundation inside the house is made of bricks, and the outside is made of stone. The floor is mainly wooden floor and tatami. The roof is made of wood from the ceiling to the structure. The principle of the wooden roof truss adopts the traditional Japanese method. The joints of the wood use mortise joints and auxiliary iron parts at the same time. Many components also have construction numbers and ink lines for researchers to scrutinize the construction. process and techniques. The tiles on the outside of the roof, although cement tiles are used now, the Japanese tiles used in the past can still be found at the foundation of the building and beside the water tower.
