The 'Hotel Test Sleeper': A cultural and creative park transformed from a historical Japanese-era prison officer's dormitory, now home to multiple brand stores.

Originally a historical Japanese-era prison officer's dormitory, this old official residence has been meticulously restored and transformed into a cultural and creative park. It has now become a comfortable leisure area with multiple brand stores, blending the old with the new to create a fresh look. The park features light meals, cafes, beer houses, cultural and creative product stores, and kimono experiences. It is located near Dongmen MRT Station, Yongkang Street, and the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, facing Jin Hua Street. The environment is relaxed, with characteristic alleys behind the buildings. Emphasizing the transformation of historical architecture with a modern perspective, the park highlights the value of preserving Taiwan's historical sites. The remnants of the old prison and stone walls have been preserved, allowing visitors to wander through the ruins and appreciate the Japanese-style courtyard landscaping.
