新城神社舊址

The first torii gate at the entrance has been modified and added to the Catholic Church’s text. It’s a pity that after entering, the second torii gate has its original appearance (after all, it’s a monument, it’s better to keep it as it is). There are still cats with collars, many of them can be touched, and the cats will also be proud~

Testimony of history, mottled old buildings, and Japanese-style construction styles mixed with Western churches. It turned out that in the early days of Xincheng Village during the Japanese occupation, because the Japanese had a festival with the local aboriginal people, the local Han people and the aboriginal people launched an anti-Japanese campaign (that is, the Xincheng incident). So the early monuments evolved into shrines, but after the Japanese retreated from Taiwan, Swiss priests built a church here and built a chapel based on the Bible "Noah's Ark". In fact, the church was made like a ship Concept of big ship XD. I actually visited this room at the end of 2020 and found that there were people feeding stray cats regularly. Three cats were seen. Two white cats are very relatives and cute. The orange cat is taking a lazy nap. The outside of the church is full of vines. If you are not visiting in winter, you should be able to see the whole green vine wall, which should be a lot more vibrant.

There is a quiet beauty that integrates time, race, and belief.

Meow is very kind!! Lots of little black mosquitoes!!

There are many cats here, the environment is quiet, and the buildings are beautiful and worth visiting

Worth a visit, the church next to it is also very distinctive, the kittens are relatives

The quiet historical shrine and the Catholic church feel very comfortable. There are stadiums and some small restaurants nearby, so you might as well take a walk and eat here.

A quiet place, if you have the opportunity to visit Hualien New Town, you can come here to see the wonderful combination of the Torii and the Catholic Church. There are also several relatives' stray cats in the park. Take a walk and see the purring cat, it is a very healing itinerary?
