1934 Historic Restaurant at Xinhua District Council House(新化街役場1934街役場古蹟餐坊)

The 1934 Historic Restaurant at Xinhua District Council House (新化街役場1934街役場古蹟餐坊) is typical of Xinhua's historic buildings. As its name suggests, the building was constructed in 1934, and the ceilings inside are all preserved in their original forms. Looking at the building from the outside it is hard to imagine the inside having so many wooden parts. Entering the building you will discover that parts of the floor are made of transparent glass, with lots of thick hemp ropes below. When the building was set to be demolished to make way for a parking lot, so Xinhua residents worked together with ropes to move the entire building. Now these ropes serve as testimony to that magnificent display of co-operation. With determination, many beautiful historical buildings can be well preserved and become important local landmarks. The 1934 Restaurant is well preserved both inside and out and filled with a nostalgic feeling, so if you are in Xinhua don't forget to come in for afternoon tea.
