A Japanese colonial era dormitory on Yangmingshan built in 1937, combining a Western-style study with traditional Japanese living quarters, set within an expansive bamboo garden. Its original purpose is unclear due to scarce records, though it might have been a private villa for a Japanese businessman named Abe Isaburo (阿部伊三郎). After the war it was assigned to Féng Wénbō (馮汶波), director of the Shilin Horticultural Research Station, who lived here until his death in 2002. Registered as a historic building in 2012, it was restored and reopened in 2019 as Douliu Forest (豆留森林), a café operated by the Cama coffee chain.
