Hayashi Department Store/林デパート/林百貨

The Hayashi Department store is a beautiful Japanese-era building in Tainan.  It was a large and stunning building in its time, and it had the second elevator ever to be built in Taiwan.  It's currently closed, but they're working on it right now, and it will probably be open again sometime in the near future.

林百貨は台南にある日本時代(昭和7年)の建物だ。台湾で二番目に古いエレベーターを持っているこの建物は当時かなり衝撃的だったのだろう。現在は工事だから、近いうちに再開するだろう。

我平常通過林百貨的前面。現在像在改建中。我很盼望再開門時候!我想看裡面。




The view's a little less impressive from the back...

I saved this for last because I can't compete with these photos.  Check out this blog for some really nice photos of the department store's interior.

私の写真はこのブログの写真に絶対敵えないので、最後にここに付けとく。是非見て下さい!

看看!這裡的照片非常好!
