Houdong Coal Mine Museum Park

Houdong Coal Mine Museum Park

Houdong Coal Mine Museum Park, located in Xinbei City, Taiwan, officially opened on July 24, 2010. Houdong used to be an important coal production Town, but later the mining industry was depressed, and the mining area was reorganized and developed into a Coal Mine Museum Park.

The theme of the park is the display of miner's life culture, including miner's life style, miner's medical history and simulated tunnel.

Development and evolution

Houdong is located in Guangfu, Gongqiao and Houdong Sanli of Ruifang District, Xinbei city. In the past, coal mines were the main production activities. The surrounding scenic spots include yunmeiqiao, ruisan coal preparation plant, Japanese shrine, jinzibei ancient road, sandiaoling waterfall and Houdong railway station. Because Houdong's mining settlement is still quite complete and representative, in order to keep the living history of Taiwan's coal mine development, Xinbei municipal government spent five years to spend NT $200 million to plan and renovate the relevant factories and facilities in the mining area, and established Houdong Coal Mine Museum Park. It reproduces the unique features of Houdong Coal Mine Industrial Ecological settlement, so that tourists can go back to the time and space of that year and deeply experience the years that Houdong has gone through. It can be called a new cultural scenic spot in Northern Taiwan. Whether you drive here or ride a bicycle, you have a complete moving line and parking lot, which is worth savoring carefully.

Theme of the park

With the exhibition of miners' life culture as the theme, it displays miners' life style, miners' medical history and simulated tunnel.
