Description of Our Community: Xiao-Xi Street is situated in the heart of a major business area in front of Changhua railroad station to include between Chenling Road and Changan Street of Today’s Changhua city. Due to drapery industry blossoming, Xiao-Xi Street is known as the manufacture and wholesale center of the ready-made garments in the whole country. Also the train station added to street and the surrounding region to constitute a major center of commerce trade with its traffic advantage. The Street area emerged with taverns, hotels, bars and liquor shops which had expanded in ensuing decades. It used to be the most vibrant, diverse and charming place in Chuanghua. But with the time passing, the hotel business in Xiao-Xi street now is no longer prosperous, but many historical tracks have been left and wait for people to inquire and get the taste of the old Streets.

Project Description: 1. There are several intensions in this field research. First, to understand the history of each scenic spots on Xiao-Xi street, we’d like to know how Xiao-Xi Street cultural heritages were preserved by interviewing local people. Secondly, we will create the Xiao-Xi street tourist guidebook by collecting and organizing all the literatures and information. Third, through this field research, hopefully we can not only get more people to know the good old days about this place but also enhances its international visibility.
