— Introduction to the Park —

  • Wufeng Lin Family Gongbaodi Park – A Glimpse into Taiwan’s Qing Dynasty Heritage

Gongbaodi is one of the preserved buildings in the Wufeng Lin Family Garden. Built in 1858 by Lin Wencha, it remains the only first-class Qing Dynasty official residence in Taiwan. The architecture follows a symmetrical five-bay, eleven-room layout, with additions made by Lin Chaodong until its completion in 1895 before the Sino-Japanese War.

  • Grand Flower Hall

The Grand Flower Hall, completed in 1894, is a unique five-bay, three-story structure featuring Taiwan’s only Fuzhou-style stage. The hall’s octagonal caisson ceiling is adorned with intricate carvings of peonies, symbolizing wealth and prosperity. Originally used for military meetings and banquets, it later became a private opera house for the Lin family.

  • Thatched House

The Thatched House, built around 1837, was the Lin family’s first home in Wufeng. This historic structure consists of a main house, a guard dragon wing, a barn, and a gatehouse. The house, which symbolizes the Lin family's humble beginnings, underwent meticulous restoration in 2020, preserving its original construction methods and materials.
