篤行十村

Duxingshi Village in Penghu is Taiwan's oldest military dependents' village, built in 1903 and featuring Japanese-style architecture. Originally Japanese military dormitories, it was later converted and designated a cultural park. The village is known for its preserved historical Japanese-style houses, now home to art installations, shops, and former residences of famous singers Pan Anbang and Zhang Yusheng, making it a unique blend of history, culture, and musical heritage. A great walk around this village. Spent some time in the museums too. Many great spots for photography though not many shops were open when we arrived.

Duxingshi is the oldest military housing in Taiwan. It is also the town famous for the birth of many Taiwan Singers. There will be two singer museum on their live in the village. The town is filled with many graphic wording and it’s quite nice to take photo with it. The town is quite big so take your time to walk.

A no-admisdion-fee historical site innovated from a military dependents village named "Duxing 10th Village." In 1949-50, about two-million Nationalists retreated to Taiwan after being defeated by the Communist in a 4-year civil war in Mainland China (1945-49). To settle those loyal military personnels, President Chiang Kai-shek of the Republic of China (Nationalist) allocated certain Japan colonist' houses into his military dependents village. Because two famous popular-music singers named Pan Anbang and Zhang Yusen grew up here, this historical site focuses on their stories. One may spent 30-60 minutes to visit.
