[2025 Taoyuan Attraction] Travel Guide for Taoyuan 77 Art Zone (Updated Apr)

If you think Taoyuan is just about the airport and shopping malls, then you probably haven't visited this hidden Japanese-style corner in the city — Taoyuan 77 Art Zone. Originally a group of police dormitories during the Japanese occupation, it has now transformed into a cultural enclave that blends history, art, design, and the aroma of coffee. The entire row of preserved Japanese wooden buildings has been meticulously restored, retaining the traces of time while incorporating many innovative elements. The park is not large, but it's the kind of place perfect for a leisurely stroll, quiet photography, and a relaxed wander. This time of year, you can still catch the tail end of the cherry blossoms. A few beautiful cherry trees, combined with wooden windows, tatami mats, Japanese eaves, and interwoven greenery, create a very soothing atmosphere. The whole area is well-maintained and perfect for taking photos and checking in. / 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 / ✅ Taoyuan 77 Art Zone 📍 Address: No. 5, Lane 77, Zhongzheng Road, Taoyuan District, Taoyuan City Transportation: About a 10-minute walk from Taoyuan Train Station 🎟️ Admission: Free, open for self-guided tours

During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Han Chinese came to Taozaiyuan from Nankan Creek and formed a living circle centered on the Kaiji Fude Temple. Later, due to the Quanzhou-Zhangzhou armed conflict and the Japanese colonial period, the city center gradually moved to the Zhongzheng Road and Zhongshan Road area. The predecessor of 77 Yiwen Town was here. It was originally a dormitory for civil servants in government offices. In 1937, it was converted into a police dormitory. There were originally six buildings with 12 households of the Taiwan Police Freemasonry Association. A fire broke out in 2002, and now only four buildings remain. The four eight-story Japanese-Western mixed-use buildings were renovated in 2018 and officially revitalized as assets. They were voted to be named "77 Arts Town", and restaurants and arts and cultural businesses moved in, turning it into a time tunnel in the city. The official residences of the judges are divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D. There are two types: single-family and double-family. When you visit Taiyaki and an independent bookstore, the owners are friendly and easy to talk to. The double-family houses have now been demolished and connected to form a large space, and the space where quilts are placed has become a display space for artists' works. The slightly lower beam of the paper sliding door is retained, resembling the wooden floor and ceiling of grandma’s house, instantly returning to early Taiwan. The orange cat strolls around 77 Gebuncho, as if freezing a leisurely afternoon in the noisy city. If you come to Taoyuan, don't forget to come here and experience the unique flavor of the old Japanese buildings. 📍Address: No. 5, Lane 77, Zhongzheng Road, Taoyuan District, Taoyuan City 330 #2月好去地方2025
