Due to these business organizations, Tianjhong is abundant and prosperous.

Project Description: Compared with other clothes, socks may not be so much important to common people, but they are necessory in our daily life. As the saying goes, thousands of miles begins with a single step. A pair of good socks can not only protect our feet, but also keep feet warm and provide specially healthy functions. Tianjhong township, the kingdom of socks in Taiwan, is famous for its socks, and most of socks in Tianjhong are made by Shenghong hosiery company. In the beginning of 1960s, scarves with patterns of national flags, made by Shenghong hosiery company, is well-known to everyone. Besides, to show the fine art of producing socks to tourists and sell its vary creative products, Soxlink tourism factory, located at the at the junction of Tianjhong and Shetou township in Changhua county, was established in 2011. In order to explore the mysterious art of the king of socks, our team paid a visit there and luckily interviewed the chairman. By the visit, we learned that how difficult a pair of socks was produced, and realized that without wisdom and efforts of ancestors, we definitely can not enjoy the precious consequence!
