[2025 Pingtung Attraction] Travel Guide for Pingtung 1936 Tobacco Culture Base (Updated Oct)

Even though it's raining, 1936 Pingtung Creative Park has a very warm and peaceful atmosphere 🥺💧 The old ice factory area in an old brick building has been renovated into a cafe, exhibition and craft shop. The rain makes this place look even more charming. Take shelter from the rain by going into a cafe in an old building, order a hot cocoa or light tea, and sit and watch the raindrops through the glass window, surrounded by the smell of coffee and soft music — it feels great ☕🍰 🖼️ There is an art exhibition corner and a handmade shop for you to slowly walk around. 📸 Although it's not convenient to take pictures outdoors, there are still cool vintage corners inside the building for chic pictures. 🌧️ The overall atmosphere on a rainy day is quiet and peaceful, perfect for relaxing and slowly absorbing the Pingtung atmosphere. 📍 It's not far from Pingtung Railway Station, only about a 10-minute walk. 🧥 It's recommended to bring an umbrella or raincoat because some of the walkways between the buildings can get wet. For those who love rain + cafe + craft, I highly recommend this place. It's cute even on a wet day. 🍃💛 #RainySeasonTravel

#trip: The top choice for family getaways #CityTour #AutumnFamilyTours #Pingtung City Attractions: Pingyan 1936 Cultural Center One of the highlights of this trip to Pingtung~ Highlights: ✍🏻: An all-you-can-eat, immersive experience What is immersive? Basically, it's an interactive experience, like #teamlab or something like that. Upon entering, we first visited Dawu Mountain and the Palace Museum special exhibition. Dawu Mountain is truly stunning, breathtakingly beautiful, and the space is huge. It's usually pretty busy, so children can run and play freely. The Palace Museum special exhibition is about people transforming into butterflies. I don't know why, but I personally find it a bit unlucky. Hahahaha, maybe it's influenced by Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai 🤔. And everyone's wings are different. Next, we went back to the Tobacco Museum. Everyone was taking pictures and looking incredibly Instagrammable, but it was actually quite hot inside. Then we had to walk up a long staircase. I couldn't really take any good photos 😅. But the dim light was really nice ❗️. Then we walked to the former tobacco production line. It's a pretty narrow walkway, so there's a line. The purple lighting gives it a nightclub vibe, I think 😂. Because the space is really huge. The kids were tired by the end, so we didn't explore every detail. After leaving, I read the introduction and realized I hadn't visited the Hakka House on the second floor. 😱 Also, they didn't offer stroller rentals. I personally think this service would be a plus for a popular attraction. The parking fee was 💰30 per hour, which was reasonable. It's a multi-story parking garage. We stayed there for over two hours, so it was definitely worth it.

#trip Family Outing Choice The Pingyan 1936 Cultural Base, located in downtown Pingtung, is a key centerpiece of Pingtung County's Grand Museum Project. Formerly the Pingtung Branch Leaf Tobacco Re-Drying Plant, built in 1936, it was once Taiwan's largest primary tobacco processing plant. Following the passage of time and industrial transformation, the county government's historical site revitalization project successfully transformed this approximately 4.2-hectare historical complex into an immersive museum complex that integrates history, art, ethnic culture, and innovative technology, making it a striking cultural landmark in southern Taiwan. The Pingyan 1936 Cultural Base not only preserves the magnificent factory buildings, warehouses, and towering chimneys of the past, but also infuses its precious historical heritage with a contemporary revitalization. As Taiwan's first tobacco-themed museum, it fully preserves the massive tobacco processing machinery of the time, including the re-smoking machine and the deboning area. It's worth noting that climbing the preserved "catwalk" (high-altitude inspection walkway) within the Tobacco Museum offers a bird's-eye view of the entire industrial space, allowing you to experience the majestic grandeur and unique light and shadow of the industrial-style architecture. The base buildings retain the rugged and elegant lines of the industrial style of the Japanese colonial period. Especially thanks to the lighting design, the Pingyan tobacco factory buildings, chimneys, and outdoor green walls are illuminated by warm light at night, creating a charming atmosphere that is both retro and cyberpunk, making it a must-see for photography enthusiasts. The charm of Pingyan 1936 lies in its exhibitions that encompass Pingtung's rich and diverse ethnic culture, utilizing extensive digital technology to create an immersive sensory feast: The Hakka Museum: Using abstract visual design and light projection, it presents the traditional daily rituals, the spirit of farming in the sun and studying in the rain, and the local cultural characteristics of the Liudui Hakka people of Pingtung, allowing visitors to understand the Liudui Hakka people from a new perspective. The Indigenous Peoples' Hall: Through immersive experiences and interactive installations, it offers an in-depth look at the life, weaving, hunting, and musical cultures of Pingtung's indigenous groups, including the Paiwan and Rukai. The warehouse complex within the base frequently hosts high-quality immersive special exhibitions, such as one themed on Dawu Mountain. Through surround projections, fragrance, and sound effects, visitors were transported to the mountains and felt the natural pulse of southern Taiwan. The Pingyan 1936 Cultural Center, using the concept of "Golden Leaf Rebirth," has transformed a former industrial memory into a new cultural center imbued with a futuristic feel and local warmth. It is a cultural highlight not to be missed on any trip to Pingtung. @trip.com_tw "Download the Trip.com app ➜ Search [FamilyTravel] on the homepage ➜ View recommended family trips and exclusive deals!"

The first time I visited Pingyan 1936 Cultural Base, I was deeply shocked by the European-style cultural and creative market and the stalls of borderless food. It is a great place to experience the tranquility that is different from the pace of the city. There are many manuscripts and story clips to see in the Demon Slayer Complete Works Exhibition. I hope Demon Slayer will not miss it! #familytravel #goodplaceforfamily
