M4 Pathway to Rice Vermicelli
What would be the first impression when asked about Hsinchu? Rice vermicelli, would definitely be put to the equation. Using a“Design your own”objective method, we invite you to disassemble and then reassemble the taste of rice vermicelli at“SJ House”, the historical building built in 1934, and the first department store in Hsinchu City, to help you evoke the taste pallets, and stir-frying a plate of your imagination. Rice vermicelli is well-known produce of this town not merely because of the rice, but also because of the wind.

M5 Yu-Le Cinema
Finding the unpolished and unstructured essence of our being oftentimes requires us to reflect back and try to look at things from a child’s perspective, which enables us to reexamine the land we live by and this city with the highest children population in Taiwan. Through watching Taiwan’s animated features and documentaries on the big screen, we remember the stories we once knew of our people and homeland, and meanwhile, plant the seeds of endless future opportunities for Hsinchu.
