Description of Our Community: “Dongxing” is the name of aboriginal society of Taiwanese plains aborigines and former “Lioujia” is “Liuzhangli”. We probe into the signs in life and discover the stories of Lioujia. Human customs of different people result in the history. Although Dong Xing Elementary School is a new school in Zhubei City, we are the first. As new people who integrate into and change Lioujia, we expect that our result will reinforce the human relationship in the community.

Project Description: Lioujia Xinwawu located in Zhubei City, Hsinchu County is the only Hakka settlement preservation area in Taiwan and it has been the largest granary in Hsinchu. Nowadays, because of the development of transport construction, “Taiwan High Speed Rail”, we start from Dongxing Canal near the school to explore the stories of Hakka villages. From the passing of water ditch to Taiwan High Speed Rail, urbanization has accelerated in ten years. With the gap of land memory, we attempt to connect the stories which should not be forgotten.
