In April this year, Beijiao Community in Xingang Township, the smallest village in Chiayi County, created Taiwan’s largest levee mural village. Along the levee, you can see colorful cartoon-themed murals such as Leaning Tiger, Picasso, and One Piece, which are very eye-catching. Nearby Nanjiao and Pizi, seeing how the murals brought energy to Beijiao, also started creating their own mural villages, connecting the three small communities into the largest mural art village.

The concept of the mural village was first proposed by Chen Lili, a fellow villager who had been living in northern Taiwan for a long time. In 2013, a typhoon brought flooding to Nanjiao and Beijiao. When Chen Lili returned to her hometown in Beijiao to help, she came up with the idea of painting the village. She then started working with the villagers to create murals. Gradually, the houses and levees in the alleys became large canvases for the villagers, with every piece of artwork painted stroke by stroke by the villagers and volunteers. The once old houses became more beautiful, relationships among the villagers improved, and the small village became Taiwan’s largest levee mural village.
