The Yangmingshan American Military Housing complex on Yangmingshan covers an area of ​​about 13.88 hectares. From 1950 to 1979, it had about 150 American-style buildings. At that time, many American military officers, advisers and their families stationed in Taiwan lived in this area.

A large number of US military housing buildings are still preserved today. Once you enter, it is like entering a retro town in an American movie, giving you the illusion of arriving in the United States in a second. This area has been converted into many restaurants and homestays, retaining the existing characteristics and style of the buildings. Take a stroll in this area and carefully observe the scenery and objects around you.

The largest leisure center at that time, the location of the "American Military Club", retained the basic structure of the building and transformed into the most representative "Taipei American Military Club Restaurant BRICK YARD 33 1/3", with large red brick walls and red brick roofs, as well as red brick wind-weakening walls specially built to cater to the strong winds in Yangmingshan. When you enter the room, you can see the wooden overhead ceiling, which is also a feature of the entire US military dormitory complex. If you are lucky, you may even have the opportunity to encounter a wedding held here.

In order to accommodate American military officers and their families who needed to attend worship services, a Catholic church that was very much integrated with Chinese architecture was built in Taiwan, where Catholicism was not popular at the time. Before entering, you can see the roof of a Chinese temple, and there is a pair of stone lions at the entrance of the Catholic church. On the ceiling inside, you can see Jesus wearing clothes that are different from those in the West, and the Virgin Mary wearing Tang clothing. You can see the fusion of Chinese and Western cultures.
