921 Earthquake Memorial Park
Rating: 5/5
This was a very solemn place. There are collapsed building from a major earthquake in Taiwan preserved and kept as they were. We could see the collateral damage done by the earthquake and see for ourselves how serious earthquakes can be. There were also numerous information boards placed around the area giving information in various languages about how buildings are affected by earthquakes, why certain things collapse in a certain way, myths and legends surrounding earthquakes and natural disasters, and so on. There was also a small earthquake force simulator for visitors to experience being in a earthquake. Besides that, there was aN earthquake theatre showcasing the events of the 921 earthquake. The tour guide was informative and clear in her explanation, making it easier to understand.
