The predecessor of "Shengping Theater" originated in 1916 as a wooden stage next to the old market, featuring Taiwanese opera, with a capacity of about three to four hundred people. The stage collapsed due to age in 1927, and the operator rebuilt a theater on the same site in 1934, covering an area of about 200 ping. It was the largest theater in Taiwan during the Japanese colonial era. Due to severe population outflow in Jiufen, it closed down in 1986. Its unique architecture has made Shengping Theater a filming location for many movies, including "Duo Sang," "A City of Sadness," and "Blue Mountain Coffee," capturing classic scenes. It is not only the oldest theater in northern Taiwan but also a must-visit attraction for tourists in Jiufen.
