Taichung Baseball Field

Taichung


Adjacent to Taichung Broadcasting Bureau is a piece of interesting nostalgic sports architecture. This old stadium (1935) was once the home of several Taichung baseball teams, including Taichung Agan (臺中金剛) of the Taiwan Major League. Go in for a peek if it's open. The stands, the arena, the lockers and the corridors look like part of an old movie set.
