"Taichung Liuyuan Church", adjacent to Taichung Park, was selected as one of Taiwan's Top 100 Religious Scenes in the Republic of China in 102. It is a landmark religious architectural landscape. "Taichung Liuyuan Church" is the only Christian church in the world with a dragon-shaped spouting cornice, and it is also the oldest church architectural masterpiece in Taichung City. In 1917, the church was originally hidden in the alleys. With the illegal demolition of Gospel Street and the widening of roads, the magnificent European-style church exterior gave people a full view. This church was built by the pastor of Meiganlu, England, based on a church in Scotland. The pastor not only introduced Western medical and health care, but also left this cultural and architectural monument, so that future generations of visitors can enjoy this century of elegance.
