Description of Our Community: Taichung Broadcasting Bureau, with its light yellow appearance, sits on"Radio Station Street", an alley that stretches out from First High School Street. To Taichung residents, " First High School Street" is a renowned place. Thanks to the convenient mass-transportation, it not only amazes people by various tasty local delicacies and cuisines, but also appeals to swarms of people with its fashion culture. What's more, it is rated as one of Taiwan’s top ten scenic spots that attract the most foreigners and tourists. There are more famous landscapes surrounding Taichung Broadcasting Bureau as follows: Chungyo Department Store, known for the unique theme lavatories on each floor,The stadium of National Taiwan Sport University, where sport matches and large outdoor activities often take place, Wenying Museum, which dedicates to the development of Taiwan traditional printing and crafts and on top of it, Taichung ChungHsing Hall, in which diverse musical concerts are often held. The nearby community comprising shopping sites, academic organizations, art institutions, and everything concerning common life, is just like a miniature of society. In contrast to these bustling sites, the tranquility of Taichung Broadcasting Bureau is like a historic castle, whose serene atmosphere makes visitors feel peaceful as well as enriches the spiritual life of Taichung residents.

Project Description: Broadcasting Bureau of Taichung, located at No.1, Radio-station St., Taichung City, was built in 1935. Having been standing there for over 70 years, it’s an old friend to the Taichung residents. In 2005, Cultural Affair Bureau of Taichung City Government delegated Super FM 99.1 to manage it. Thanks to Super FM 99.1’s operation, it not only shows us the glory that Broadcasting Bureau of Taichung used to be, but also helps keep the transmission of culture. In 2010, another institution, Mu Ci Chang Corporation, took over the management. We are going to visit the place in person, hoping to evoke the legacy and the old sound of the exquisite heritage. Also, with our public website, we could show the public the culture and art around, letting the Broadcasting Bureau of Taichung keep broadcasting endless rhyme!
