The only two shrines in Taiwan with underground structures - Xinhua Shrine... It was only discovered in the 100th year of the Republic of China, in the Hutou Pi Scenic Area? The former Xinhua Shrine Zhaikan, now called "Red House", was mentioned in the introduction as the place to cleanse before worship, so it should be the Zhaikan. The underground ruins were found near the shrine. According to Japanese scholar Tsuda Naoki, the underground remains of the Xinhua Shrine are very close to the underground remains of the Taiwan Shrine he saw in Yuanshan, Taipei, and the same as the Taiwan Shrine and the Manchukuo Jianguo Temple. From the perspective of the decoration on both sides of the entrance and exit, the buildings of the era should be the place to put the gods, and the white decoration method between the ceiling and the wall also belongs to shrines and shrines. Judging from the details of the decorations on both sides of the entrance door and the decorative strips where the ceiling and the wall meet, it is by no means an ordinary warehouse.
