The new venue, <strong data-start=\"483\" data-end=\"518\">Tea House 1917<\/strong>, will open on July 20.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"545\" data-end=\"831\">Built during the Japanese colonial period, the wooden locomotive depot was once a major train repair hub. Now revitalized, it blends history, art, and cuisine to offer locals and travelers an authentic Michelin-starred culinary experience within a culturally rich architectural space.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1508\">The Taitung locomotive depot, constructed between 1917 and 1919, is the only preserved semi-wooden Japanese-style engine shed in Taiwan\u2019s eastern railway network. After the old Taitung station closed in 2001, the depot was registered as a historical building. The structure features a high-ceilinged ground floor, reinforced concrete, no-doors gable walls, trapezoidal trusses, and a two-sloped roof with central raised pavilion windows for ventilation and steam release. The interior includes a maintenance pit supported by concrete pillars, once used for train inspection. Though the rails have been removed, the maintenance ditch, pillars, and workbenches remain intact.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1510\" data-end=\"1802\">FDC International breathes new life into this historic site by preserving its traces while introducing star-quality cuisine and travel experiences. The restored depot now serves as a unique cultural landmark in Taitung, injecting new tourism energy and warmth into the city\u2019s living fabric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FDC International officially takes over the historic Taitung Old Station\u2019s wooden locomotive depot to create the first cultural and creative space&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":22684,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[78],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-78"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22893"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22893\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22895,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22893\/revisions\/22895"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fdc-i.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
