Next to Taichung Railway Station, Cultural Heritage Park, Ministry of Culture occupies a space of 5.6 acres. Previously in the Japanese-ruling era, it was Taishō Brewing Joint-stock Company, which was the largest brewery in Taiwan; later on, it’s changed to Taiwan Provincial Tobacco and Liquor Monopoly Bureau in 1957. In February in 2011, the name of Cultural Heritage Park was finalized and the park is one of the fifth Cultural Heritage Park supervised by the Ministry of Culture. Evolving from once being an old fashioned brewery, Cultural Heritage Park gradually becomes the base to actively promote the cultural and creative industries in the city.
