The Changhua Arts Museum (Chinese: 彰化藝術館; pinyin: Zhānghuà Yìshùguǎn) is a museum in Changhua City, Changhua County, Taiwan.
Architecture
The museum is housed in the Jungshan Hall, a quaint building dating back several decades. The building also doubles as a performance theater, lecture hall, and art gallery. The museum's premises also have a 300-year-old well, known as the Hongmao Well. It is the last remaining well of the several built by the Dutch. This link with the Dutch gives it the name Hongmao, which means 'red hair' in Taiwanese.[1]
Transportation
The museum is accessible within walking distance east from Changhua Station of the Taiwan Railway Administration.[citation needed]
