The entrance to an old bunker on the former site of the village, before the area was paved over as a parking lot.

Established in 1951 for 105 households of the 20th and 11th Air Force groups behind Tiangong Temple in Hsinchu, its homes built of bamboo and mud like most villages of the period. It was never redeveloped; residents moved away or passed on, and by 2013 the village had been cleared for a park and parking lot. A small bunker of uncertain date, known as Juji Segment Bunker (聚吉段碉堡), stood within the footprint of the former village until it was demolished around 2024.
