■ Miyahara Eye Clinic Miyahara Eye Clinic is a confectionery shop that is loved not only by Taiwanese people but also by tourists.
It has been renovated to a modern style while retaining the exterior from when it was a clinic. The interior has high ceilings and is stylish like a library, so it's fun just to look at it! The interior is very stylish, like a Western-style library.
Not only the popular ice cream, but also pineapple cakes and Taiwanese tea make perfect souvenirs!
■ Hokaku Temple Hokaku Temple was founded in 1927. Not only does the temple worship the Buddha, but it also houses the remains of Taiwanese and Japanese soldiers who died in World War II, so many Japanese people come to worship there every year.
It was famous for its 30m-tall gilded smiling Maitreya Buddha statue, but it will be returned to its original grey colour during restoration work in 2023.
■ Old Taichung Station The old station building served as the second Taichung Station for nearly 100 years. It ceased to function as a station building when the new station building opened in 2016, but the building remains and is preserved as an important historical site.
■Taichung City Hall The Taichung City Hall from the Japanese colonial era was renovated in 2016 and reborn as a cafe, restaurant, and art space.
■Taichung National Theater Taichung Opera House was designed by Japanese architect Toyo Ito. It was designed with the concept of a "beautiful cave of sound." There are almost no straight lines in the building, and the curved walls create a flowing space. In addition to large, medium and small sized specialized theaters, the building also has a cafe and a rooftop garden.
