Lijia Brick Kiln (利嘉磚窯)

A lone chimney towers over the gentle hills immediately to the east of the Indigenous village of Likavung. The property has been redeveloped into a paintball center (呂家望探索教育中心). Not much is known about the name or history of this former kiln, and there’s also a chance it was never used to produce bricks, although the style of chimney certainly matches that use case. More on-site research is required.
