Jiaobanshan Camphor Storehouse

Attractions along Jiaobanshan Sanxing Historic Trail

Located next to the Jiaobanshan Residence, the Jiaobanshan Camphor Storehouse was built in Showa 14 (1939). In the period of Japanese rule in the late Qing Dynasty, Taiwan's camphor production accounted for 70% of the world's total production, so it was called the "Camphor Kingdom", and Jiaobanshan was the distribution center for camphor cutting in northern Taiwan. It was to  facilitate smooth transport of the camphor to Daxangkan (now Daxi), then transport it to Taipei by Dahan River, and export it to the rest of the world. In Meiji 34 (1901), the Taiwan Governor's Office Monopoly Bureau was established to include camphor-related affairs. In the 8th year of Taisho (1919), in order to strengthen control and reduce costs, the "Taiwan Camphor Manufacturing Co. Ltd." was established with a government-run and private production method. In the 9th year of the Showa era (1934), the Taiwan Governor's Office disbanded the manufacturing company and changed the manufacture of raw materials and finished products under the control of the Special Sales Bureau. After the Nationalist government moved to Taiwan in 1945, the monopoly system of camphor production was still maintained until 1967.
