#Xihu Sugar Factory-Xihu Township, Changhua County

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Xihu Sugar Factory was built in 1919 and is the only sugar factory in Changhua County. The Xihu Sugar Factory was formerly known as the "Xihu Sugar Factory". It was renamed the "Xihu Sugar Factory" after the establishment of Taiwan Sugar Corporation in 1946. The Xihu Sugar Factory also ended its sugar-making business in 2002 and transformed into a sugar railway cultural park and developed a variety of leisure and entertainment activities, including the most famous sightseeing five-minute car. Zhangshui Road Section 2 divides the sugar factory into two parts. The east side is the old sugar factory's locomotive factory, which includes the sightseeing five-minute train, the historic old locomotive, the railway, the factory buildings and the office. On the west side is an old Japanese-style dormitory, which was previously renovated and revitalized and then leased to a manufacturer. Although Taiwan Sugar is the prodigal son of state-owned enterprises, it has gradually relied on transformation in recent years to change the public's negative stereotype of Taiwan Sugar. Only by seeking innovation and change can it avoid being swallowed up by the torrent of time. (20210918)
