Chiayi's Hinoki Forest Village is Taiwan's largest complex of Japanese-style buildings. Formerly a forestry dormitory during the Japanese colonial period, it was built with Alishan cypress and has been restored and transformed into a cultural and creative park. The park boasts 29 historic wooden buildings, home to cultural and creative shops, specialty restaurants (such as Sen Cafe), exhibition spaces, and a kimono-wearing experience, recreating the ambiance of bygone Japan. Located near Beimen Station, it's perfect for a cultural getaway.
