The Changhua Arts Hall (traditional Chinese: 彰化藝術館; simplified Chinese: 彰化艺术馆; pinyin: Zhānghuà Yìshùguǎn) is an art gallery in Changhua City, Changhua County, Taiwan.
Architecture
The art gallery 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 Ang-mo Well (紅毛井). It is the last remaining well of the several built by the Dutch. This link with the Dutch gives it the name Ang-mo, which means 'red hair' in Taiwanese.[1][2]
Transportation
The art gallery is accessible within walking distance east from Changhua Station of the Taiwan Railways.
