A Home Run From the Past
Feeling in the mood for some baseball nostalgia, then Taichung’s Baseball stadium should help. The Japanese first built the field in 1935 and it’s been repeatedly refurbished to its present form. The stadiums seats 8500 people though nowadays it is seldom used. As a fixed part of Taichung Sports university campus, the noise and inconvenience caused by games means it’s only used for low key events and practice now. The stadium is often open and handily accessible from Taichung park. Taiwanese go crazy for Baseball, so if you’re a baseball fan and want to see a piece of history, the stadium is certainly worth a look.
