Since 2016, the community has invited over 50 international volunteers to renovate old buildings, exchange traditional cultures, and interact with locals in Wuqi. The program is open for the summer vacation period, and participants who are interested in community service, old house restoration, and space creation, especially those with relevant background departments or work experience in visual arts, architectural design, landscape, and space planning, are preferred.
Accommodations for the event are in an accommodation owned by the community, with shared rooms and wooden beds. Participants need to bring their own sleeping bags and mosquito repellent. The community will provide two meals every day, and volunteers need to prepare dinner for themselves in the kitchen provided. Participants can also try delicious food in Wuqi, especially seafood, during their free time.
Location: Wu-Qi Town of Taichung CityLeisure:1) During your leisure time, you can ride a bike along the western coast, Wuqi Tourist Fish Market, or Gaomei Wetland.2) There is a night market nearby every Monday and Sunday.
Wuqi District is a plain situated between the Dajia and Dadut rivers, with Qingshui District to the north, Shalu District to the east, Longjing District to the south, and the Taiwan Strait to the west. The current coastline is formed by Taichung Port, and as a coastal town, its history is closely tied to the prosperity of the harbor. Formerly known as Bamboo Raft Cave and Wuqi Port, Wuqi is located to the west of Qingshui Mountain, in Qingshui District, and is also referred to as Aoxin. According to regional scholars, the Chinese Phoenix does not live without the Phoenix Tree, nor consume without holy spring water and bamboo, which led to the name Wuqi. When visiting Wuqi and speaking with locals, visitors can hear its Taiwanese pronunciation, which is similar to Wuqi. After the merger of Taichung County and City into a single municipality on December 25, 2010, Wuqi Town was reorganized into Wuqi District. Although the administrative area is not extensive, it possesses significant cultural tourism potential due to its abundant cultural properties, including municipal historic sites, historic buildings, and municipal folk culture. There are numerous prosperous years and temples throughout the district, reflecting the piety and expectations of Wuqi s ancestors. During the northeast monsoon season, visitors can witness the mullet migration, and there are various seafood restaurants where people can savor local delicacies and experience the living culture of this land.Aims:The purpose of this event is to revitalize and repurpose old buildings in Wuqi District, Taichung City, such as Tuencuo, street houses in Wuqi Old Street, and wooden structures. Participants will learn about the meaning of community building and how to assist local communities in carrying out public works. This event will also allow participants to experience local customs and traditional cultural festivals in Wuqi and learn about the district s historical evolution and local traditional culture.
We prefer participants who are interested in community service, old house restoration, and space creation, particularly those with relevant background experience in visual arts, architectural design, landscape architecture, and space planning.
