Chinese Folk Village
The Chinese Folk Village is situated in Shekou Village, Zhongpu Township, Chiayi County. It was redeveloped from the former Wu Feng Memorial Park and spans about 12 hectares. The entire area is classic and serene, featuring two main structures: the Chongren Hall and the Shangyi Hall. These are built in the traditional Minnan architectural style, complemented by a European-style garden. The Chongren Hall centers on the themes of loyalty, filial piety, fraternal respect, and trust, showcasing traditional folk art pieces such as carvings, pottery sculptures, dough figurines, painted artworks, and paper umbrellas. The Shangyi Hall uses wax figures and lighting-sound effects to depict the story of Wu Feng’s self-sacrificing act of righteousness. It also displays life scenes of early indigenous peoples and Taiwanese settlers. The figures and settings are exquisitely sculpted, making visitors feel as if they have traveled back in time.
