Said my translator: He is a 86 year old retired soldier (our government made a lot of this kind of small villages or communities for these soldiers from the civil war with communists in China, and normally the condition of buildings are not very good...), all the paintings created by him, he has spent for a long time to paint whole the community...

Thanks for your photos. The burning question is WHO has done the artwork? One person? Many people? When did this all start and how - or why? I taught at Tunghai 30+ years ago and never heard of this place. Absolutely amazing! Thanks for your photos.

While many people hope Taiwan and China can reunite, Taiwan is still a separate entity, almost like a distinct nation (which over 20 countries recognize as such). It'd be better and more realistic if Taiwan can be written by itself or with ROC (Republic of China) next to it. Thanks. Hi,
