Hualien County Police Station, Xincheng Branch

Attractions along Suhua Historic Trail

The police station in Xincheng Township, Hualien County was originally the Yanhai branch office that was established by the Government-General in Taiwan during the Japanese occupation.  Today, the fence of the building still remains. After the Taroko War in 1914, Sakuma Samata, the Governor at that time, was deeply admired in Hualien. In commemoration of his achievements, the Government-General in Taiwan merged the Xincheng Branch and the Taroko Branch in 1920 and named it Yanhai after Sakuma.

Later in 1937, there was a restructure of the Hualien area; and the branch offices became counties, while districts were changed to townships. Since then, the Yanhai Branch in Hualien County governed the current Xincheng Township and Xiulin Township. After the war, the National Government restored Yanhai to its old name “Xincheng”.
