The Chen’s Sangang Hall was initially built by Chen Wenyi, an immigrant from Zhangzhou. The residence is a two-section three-side brick compound building (Sanheyuan) with the front-side houses symmetrically located beside the main open entrance, like two guardian dragons on the left and right. It was renovated during the Japanese colonial period. Every piece of this compound building is a witness of the history of family business development in Taichung.
Lishui Fishing Port was originally an old fishing port with a century of history. It has been renovated into a blue-and-white Greek style. With the bikeway nearby, it is now a great spot for wedding photo shoots, sunset and bird watching, and bike riding.
