Xinwawu Hakka Cultural District (新瓦屋客家文化保存區) - Spectral Codex
新瓦屋客家文化保存區

Xinwawu Hakka Cultural District is a modest park in the heart of Zhubei likely intended to preserve something of traditional living in the new urban area. There are a variety of small cafés and community facilities inside the park, and as of 2013 there was even an ersatz cinema named after the park itself, with a sign is likely modelled on Guanxi Diyi Theater.
