Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 建築與文化資產研究所 === 100 === In 1895 (the 28th year of Meiji) Japan started their colonial period in Taiwan after
the Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed. Under the uncertainty of social and economic
situation and the overcrowding rural population, Taiwan governor’s office drew up the
emigrating plan and hopefully to solve population problems.
Taiwan governor’s office chose the eastern Taiwan of its large land field after the
overall land survey in 1909 (the 42nd year of Meiji). They built the first agricultural
immigrant village with all Japanese residence and started the government -run immigrant
project. The first village, Yoshino Mura as a pioneer and demonstration to the other
Taiwan agricultural immigrant village, the residents’contribution were remarkable.
The Yoshino Mura was planned with the “compromise” idea based on the reclaiming
experience from western countries and Hokkaido, The administration offices were located
in central of the village surrounding by two to three residential settlements with the
cultivable land nearby. It was a collective residence but with plenty space for farming and
breeding live stocks. This model could still be found in the urban plan after decades. It is
valuable not only to local history but the rural villages planning.
The context is a Yoshino Mura- research object, which is subordinate to Hualiengang
Ting. It is to research the village planning during the government-run period and the
historical developments and transformations after its end.
