#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The National Taichung Theater is located in Xitun District, Taichung City. It was designed by Japanese architect Toyo Ito, who won the Pritzker Prize. It is designed based on the concept of "Bel Canto Culvert" and uses curved walls, holes, and tubes. The opera house has a large theater, a medium theater, a small theater and a small outdoor theater, as well as a dining space on the first floor and a sky garden on the rooftop. The National Opera House is the leading arts and cultural performance venue in central Taiwan, and uses its high-quality performance space facilities to attract domestic and foreign art groups to perform in Taichung. The green space of the outdoor theater and the sky garden on the rooftop are great places for people to relax.

I have to say, when I arrived here, I was truly amazed! The unique architectural design, with its smooth curves both inside and out, without any sharp 'corners', all the photos above are from the free areas. The staircase gets narrower as you go higher, and you can see directly down to the first floor, which really makes your legs feel weak as you climb... But once you reach the top floor, it's a whole different world! Still beautiful, perfect for night photography! The whole place feels very clean~ At night, there are many photography enthusiasts taking pictures, and every shot looks great! 🕰️Business Hours: Closed on Mondays Sunday, Tuesday to Thursday 11:30 AM - 9:00 PM Friday to Saturday and public holidays 11:30 AM - 10:00 PM 📍Address: No. 101, Section 2, Huilai Road, Xitun District, Taichung City, 40756 🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: A great place to enhance your personal charm

The Taichung National Opera House was designed by world-class architect Toyo Ito. It is the first building in the world to use curved walls as the main structural support. The exterior of the opera house is composed of 58 curved walls and 29 caves, forming flowing spaces of different sizes, separated but connected to each other, like an organic form, showing freedom and intimacy with people. The design concept of the Opera House is "Bel Canto Culvert", which uses modern technology and building materials to liberate the hard and indifferent environment and transform the straight and hard urban outline into a soft field full of life force. The flowing water surrounding the venue and the image of the sky garden on the sixth floor break the binary distinction between stage and audience, indoor and outdoor, creating more possibilities for people to dialogue with architecture and art, returning to the "human" feeling. The National Opera House combines leisure, art, nature and humanity. In addition to first-class performance venues, there are also good restaurants, coffee shops, bookstores and gift shops. From the sky garden on the sixth floor, you can enjoy the brilliant night view of Taichung City.

The National Taichung Opera House is located in Xitun District, Taichung City. The exterior design is really beautiful. There are two different colored areas in the theater - the red Grand Theater area and the blue Medium Theater area. There are a grand theater, a medium theater, a small theater, a small outdoor theater and a sky garden. There are also restaurants, leisure areas, service desks, ticket offices, clothing stores, boutiques and parking lots... and other facilities. There are a lot of space for tourists to visit for free and check in and take photos. Opening hours: Tuesday to Thursday and Sunday 11:30am - 9pm Friday and Saturday 11:30am - 10pm (Closed on Monday) Address: No. 101, Section 2, Huilai Road, Xitun District, Taichung City, Taiwan #Taichung good places #Taichung attractions #Taichung travel #Taiwan city attractions

Designed by Toyo Ito, the National Taichung Theatre is a landmark for Taiwan. The facade is sculpted into an irregular form reflective of a coral reef. The interior awakens people’s memory of being inside the caves, where visitors can enjoy a kind of spatial experience. The organic curvaceous forms continue seamlessly inside the building. In the day time, you can have a beautiful view with the sun cast through the building. The night view is even more beautiful.

If you fancy handmade items, interesting decorative arts and have some time to spare to catch an opera, get away from typical shopping malls, drop by National Taichung Theatre! I appreciate the handy craft items and spent about 2 hours shopping around the bazaar. It featured leather crafts, accessories, bags, home decoration, snacks, etc. It is a short walk from Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taichung.

Let’s visit the art gallery to welcome the festive holidays with friend and family or loved one . National Taichung Theater is huge with art gallery and theatres. The museum is using non-geometric architectural design for the wall and ceiling. Having a cup of hot coffe and a cheesecake while in the atmosphere with gorgeous art and soft music, isn’t a perfect festive holiday for everyone? #mytripvlog #taichung #art #gorgeous

Taichung is a city that’s just as fascinating as the capital, Taipei. It boasts fresh air, lush greenery, and plenty of art to enjoy. The city also has many charming spots to explore and photograph. Best of all, buses within the city are free to ride! The first place to recommend is the National Taichung Theater. This modern freeform building was inspired by the swirling motion of water. In addition to its captivating design, the theater offers a variety of performances, and tickets can be purchased to enjoy the shows. There’s also a rooftop garden where you can take a leisurely stroll, making it easy to spend half a day here. Next, head to Painted Animation Lane, a street adorned with walls featuring animated characters like Conan, Maruko, Shin-chan, One Piece, Totoro, and many more. The vibrant and adorable artwork makes for great photo opportunities.

Last July, my family and I visited the Taichung Opera House. Designed by Japanese architect Toyo Ito, this building is renowned for its flowing curves and cavernous spatial design. Stepping inside felt like entering a maze where art and architecture seamlessly blend. Sunlight streamed through large glass panels, illuminating the pristine white walls and creating a warm yet tranquil atmosphere. We admired the architectural ingenuity while exploring exhibitions and spaces on different floors, and even took a break at the café. This visit not only allowed us to appreciate the beauty of the architecture but also created precious memories for our family trip.

The opera house has a large theater, a medium theater, a small theater and a small outdoor theater, as well as a dining space and a sky garden. The National Taichung Opera House has an avant-garde design and is based on the concept of a "bel canto culvert". The entire building has no beams or columns to support it, and there is no 90-degree wall, which subverts the concept of general buildings. In addition to watching the evening performances, as a foodie, I also arranged a day's food itinerary; brunch at the "Hard Bean Cafe", King's bubble tea and East China Villa snacks at "Chi Cha San Qian"; I also bought some online delicacies - chicken feet jelly... etc. as midnight snacks.
