The Preservation of Tea Industry Heritage -A Case Study of Tea Research Extension Station in Yuchih / 茶業遺產保存方式研究-以魚池鄉茶業改良場魚池分場為例

碩士 / 朝陽科技大學 / 建築及都市設計研究所 / 94 / Tea is one of the most important industries in modern economic development in Taiwan. To lay the foundation of the black tea industry in central and southern Taiwan during the era of Japanese Occupation, the governor-general government selected Yuchih, Nantou County to establish a tea research extension station, thanks to its peculiar natural and geographical conditions. The Tea Research Extension Station in Yuchih focused on the quantity of output on early days; however, current emphasis has been placed on R&D training and assistance in promotion. As a result, personnel and spatial requirements decrease every year. Plenty of historically significant buildings and antiques related to the black tea industry have been desolate and damaged, which is not only a loss of cultural assets, but also generates management problems.
Preservation of industry heritage has been valued gradually for the past few years. Due to the previous effect of different awareness of cultural assets, buildings having a higher craftsmanship value were mainly preserved. The overall historic significance of industry heritage has been confused and the consideration of cultural diversity neglected. Therefore, this research is based on preservation of cultural assets with an attempt to construct the properties and preservation concepts of industry heritage. In addition, the characteristics and value significance of tea industry heritage will be investigated through an understanding of the development process of the history, production and marketing, operation and technologies of the tea industry in Taiwan. The result will be served as the basis for case studies on Tea Research Extension Station in Yuchih after analysis and interpretation. The major purpose of this research is to review the status and realization of preserving the Tea Research Extension Station in Yuchih so as to solve the current problems of repair and restoration of historical buildings and operation transformation. How to establish cultural values under integral development and create spatial experiences to cope with current environmental requirements for achievement of sustainable operation will not only preserve the style of the original space of the Tea Research Extension Station in Yuchih, but also pass on the tea culture in Yuchih Township.
