Local ecological restoration alliance protects Yangmingshan US Military Housing

In 1951, the US armed forces constructed 217 houses in Yangmingshan (陽明山), Taipei City; following the US’s withdrawal from Taiwan, the houses were abandoned for many years. With the aim of restoring the original appearance and setting of the houses, local residents in Shanzaihou (山仔后) Village formed ‘Yangmingshan Historical Building – Eco Village Preservation & Education Alliance.’ The alliance has raised various activities, including ‘reality theatre,’ and oral history through living history and living architecture, which give visitors a real taste of the era.

Through cooperating in campus-based service-learning courses, the alliance has allowed many more young people to become acquainted with the historical heritage and ecology of Yangmingshan, giving students a first-hand experience of the lasting cultural ambiance of the area.

台北市陽明山上，有民國40年建造的217棟美軍宿舍建築，在美軍撤離台灣後，美式洋房閒置多年，在地的山仔后社區居民組成「陽明山古蹟聚落生態護育聯盟」，致力於恢復老屋原貌，還原當時情景。聯盟也舉辦活動，包括實境劇坊、口述歷史紀錄，透過活的歷史、活的建築物，讓參觀來賓實地感受那個年代留下的房子。近期，聯盟透過與校園合作的服務學習課程，讓更多年輕人認識陽明山上的歷史古蹟及生態環境，學生們可以親身體驗文化留下來的氛圍。
