Shuilin Fuxing Theater (水林復興戲院) - Spectral Codex
水林復興戲院

A small town theater on Miaoqian Road (廟前路) in Shuilin, Yunlin. Little is known about the early history of this old theater but it seems plausible it was established in the late Japanese colonial era and remained active into the 1970s. In the early days it was widely known for hosting graduation ceremonies and other events for the nearby Shuilin Elementary School (水林國小). Later on it was converted into a supermarket (大眾超市) and then an electronic gaming parlor. It was demolished in 2019. There might have also been a Chenggong Theater (成功戲院) in this district, or perhaps the name was changed at some point.
