台北大空襲 Raid on Taihoku · published
Taiwan Grand Shrine was constructed in 1901. It was built to honor Prince Kitashirakawa Yoshihisa who passed away in Taiwan in 1895. Taiwan Grand Shrine was ranked the highest Japanese Shinto shrine in Taiwan during Japanese occupation. It was severely burned and damaged by a crashed plane during the raid on Taihoku, and was torn down after WWII. It is now the Grand Hotel’s current location.

Although Taiwan Grand Shrine is no longer in existence, some of its materials are still kept until today. A part of the Torii in Taiwan Grand Shrine is now reconstructed as the Dragon Pillar of Sanxia Qingshui Zushi Temple located in Taipei. The copper bull at the entrance of Taiwan Grand Shrine was relocated to the gate of National Taiwan Museum. A pair of lion-dogs is now standing at the center of Jiantan Park, guarding the citizens in the area.
