In addition to repurposing spaces, mural art is also one way to revitalize old communities. With the rise of painted community culture, more and more old houses and alleys in Taiwan have been given a fresh new look, transforming once lifeless streets into popular photography spots. Through diverse mural styles, Taiwanese villages and neighborhoods are infused with unique atmospheres. This time, Scenic Spots will introduce Taiwan’s cat-themed painted communities, where lifelike and playful feline figures attract visitors to stop and take photos – truly delightful.
