The Beimen Forest Railway Story House was established to promote Chiayi's city tourism. The museum's exclusive specialty souvenir - Taocheng Taiping Cake, its historical origin dates back to the siege of Chiayi during the Qing Dynasty. When food was scarce and there was no external aid, soldiers and civilians mashed longan kernels to fill their stomachs, hoping for peace soon, hence the name 'Taiping Cake'. The ingredients and filling of Taocheng Taiping Cake use the famous smoked longan from Dongshan, Tainan. The flesh is plump and moderately sweet, paired with California walnuts, blending Eastern and Western ingredients. It has been recognized by the Ministry of Economic Affairs as one of the top 100 commercial districts nationwide and has won the special award for the National Environmental Education Award in Chiayi City, becoming a very representative intellectual tourist attraction in the local area. Recommended souvenir: Taocheng Taiping Cake (Longan Walnut Crisp). Adresse: 嘉義市東區共和路 239 號 Öffnungszeiten: 00:00–23:59 Chiayi
