The Yangmingshan American Military Dormitory, where US military officers and their families resided from the 1950s to 1979, retains its appearance to this day. In this area of approximately 13.88 hectares, many of the 150 or so American-style buildings constructed at that time remain, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a quiet American town. Here, you can get a glimpse of the architectural style and lifestyle of the time, and some buildings have been converted into restaurants and cafes, open for visitors to freely explore. Follow the hand-drawn map, experience the lives of former US military families, and discover unique historical traces.

Historical Exploration from Taipei,
Yangmingshan American Military Dormitory
Within the Yangmingshan American Military Dormitory complex, there is a Catholic church with a unique architectural style. Although Catholicism was not widespread in Taiwan at the time, this church, built for US military families, creates a unique atmosphere with a blend of traditional Chinese architectural elements and Western styles. At the entrance of the church, there are stone lions commonly seen in Chinese temples, and the murals and ceiling decorations inside show a exquisite harmony between Western religion and Eastern aesthetics. The Virgin Mary wearing Tang Dynasty costumes and the church with a Chinese-style roof are special scenes that can only be seen here, making it an interesting place to feel the historical changes of Taipei.
