新台中火車站前廣場

This time I came mainly because of the Christmas bubble tea lighting. There are also many shops around, and some installation art can be photographed. It is not bad to walk around.

Time-honored historic buildings~ There was a shuttle bus stop for Taichung Passenger Transport many years ago! (The following text is copied from the Internet, and the number of words is used to unlock the badge) Taichung Railway Station was built in the 6th year of Taisho (1917 AD). The establishment of Taichung Railway Station is a symbol of an era and a landmark of a city. Its establishment represents the development of Taichung town and the evolution of Taiwan's railway history. The architecture of Taichung Railway Station is very similar to the Taiwan Governor's Office during the Japanese Occupation. The central roof of the building is decorated with a gorgeous clock tower, which is the most striking feature. In modern times, it is also very grand. Due to the establishment of Taichung Railway Station, it has mastered and connected the key points of the economic artery of the north-south and mountain-sea lines, and at the same time, it has also promoted the development of various aspects of the central region. In the memory of the city, Taichung Railway Station plays multiple roles, not only as the junction of mass transportation, but also as the base for the welcome and delivery of VIPs, the best place for festivals, and the indication of exhibition venues and objects. In 1984, Taichung Railway Station proposed to be transformed into a modern railway station. The railway station with extremely negative significance of the times was hardly guaranteed. Under the efforts of local people, it was announced by the Ministry of the Interior on April 22, 1984 as the second place in Taiwan and Fujian. It is a historic site, and its scope includes the main body of the old building of Taichung Railway Station, the front porch and the first platform. The historical and cultural significance and architectural preservation of Taichung Railway Station have been paid attention to, so that the vitality of the historic site can continue to become a living historical witness.
