綠空鐵道軸線開幕展
Taichung Green Corridor Axis Opening Exhibition
— Overview
綠空鐵道軸線開幕展於2020年12月11日在舊臺中車站正式點燈開展,為期10天,是見證臺中「鐵路高架化」與「舊城翻轉」的重要里程碑。該展覽以「與綠廊共生」為核心,將臺中路至民生路段的舊鐵道遺址,成功活化為全臺第一座空中綠色廊道。展覽現場規劃了多條地景走讀路線,帶領民眾踏上保留下來的百年鐵軌、石砌駁坎與跨路鐵橋,親身體驗從日治時期保存至今的城市紋理。此外,展區內設置了多組融入現地環境的裝置藝術與互動闖關遊戲,串聯周邊的綠川水道、臺中驛鐵道文化園區及舊市區商圈,將生硬的都市工程轉化為兼具歷史教育與休閒美學的公共空間。這場開幕展不僅宣告了舊鐵道的新生,更開啟了臺中市民對綠色低碳生活與步行城市空間的全新想像。
The Taichung Green Corridor Axis Opening Exhibition officially commenced with a lighting ceremony at the Old Taichung Station on December 11, 2020. Running for a duration of 10 days, the exhibition marked a significant milestone witnessing Taichung's "railway elevation" and "old town transformation." With "Coexistence with the Green Corridor" as its core theme, the exhibition successfully revitalized the historic railway ruins stretching from Taichung Road to Minsheng Road into Taiwan's very first elevated green corridor.
The exhibition site featured multiple guided landscape walking routes, leading the public to step onto the preserved century-old railway tracks, stone-paved embankments, and overpass railway bridges, allowing them to personally experience the urban texture conserved since the Japanese colonial period. Furthermore, multiple installation arts integrated into the local environment and interactive challenge games were set up across the exhibition areas, connecting the surrounding Luchuan Canal, the Taichung Station Railway Cultural Park, and old downtown commercial districts. This seamlessly transformed rigid urban engineering into a public space that balances historical education with leisure aesthetics. This opening exhibition not only announced the rebirth of the old railway but also unlocked a brand-new imagination of green, low-carbon living and a walkable city space for the citizens of Taichung.
