This plan aims to implement Pingtung屏東 Vision 2025, based on the "Lucky Grass Vitality Plan" and the "Overall Construction Plan of Lighting New Gateway on Left Bank of Gaoping(高屏) River," and according to the previous renovation experience of the Wannian(萬年)River, to build the "Shashe(殺蛇)River - Living Heart Movement Plan" to create a cultural waterfront life circle with one railway and four streams. With the main requirements being low-carbon living, an ecological green corridor, leisure and tourism, and a gateway image, the cross-district integrated resources at both ends of Gaoping(高屏)and the core gateway area of Pingtung City(屏東市) are reorganized to extend and expand the environmentally friendly concept and build a green home and life circle, as well as develop a town of green water networks in line with the international environment in the new century.

With the theme of "Shashe(殺蛇) River Living Heart Movement" and the renovation experience of Wanian(萬年)River, combined with the renovation and renewal of public facilities in the old city, the renovation and connection of the surrounding environment of the blue belt and green belt, the renovation of streets and alleys, and the revitalization and reuse of old houses, Pingtung(屏東)will have a different scene.

• Theme image: Water and green basic architecture.
• Design language: Simple and elegant place, showing the area’s industrial landscape spirit.
• Spatial architecture: OPEN & CLOSE + UP & DOWN. Throughout Pingtung City’s special regional human landscape, natural ecological environment, and cultural landscape resources, this design proposes two main plan shafts, including the sub-projects of related issues such as overall planning of block reconstruction, renovation and update of old urban facilities, surrounding environment renovation, and connection of the blue belt and green belt, among others; through cross-district and cross-border integration, this plan focuses on implementing the waterfront space of the Shashe(殺蛇)River.

The Shashe(殺蛇)River water and green water front cultural life circle integrates the river corridor and green space of the Shashe(殺蛇)River basin to activate the surrounding industrial zone, improve the community’s quality of life, transform the industrial landscape and ruins left during the Japanese ruling period, and create local memories. The railway life circle pattern created by Liukuaicuo(六塊厝), Pingtung(屏東), and Guilai(歸來) Railway Stations connects the two waterfront life circles of the Shashe(殺蛇) River water and green and the Gaoping(高屏) River old railway bridge, integrates the urban core and gateway regional space resources, and drives the development of transportation, commerce, green environment, and urban leisure along the line.

After 25 years of silence, the base contains a history of development from the Japanese ruling period to the present. With the closure of Pingtung(屏東) Pulp Factory in 1994, time seems to have been frozen. By continuing Pingtung City(屏東市)’s historical texture, Taiwan sugar industrial culture context, and ecological environment of the Shashe(殺蛇) River, such design methods as preservation and repair, space reconstruction, and creative value added moderately retain the traces of railway and the old pulp factory structure and integrates the Shashe(殺蛇)River waterfront green space to invoke the dusty memory of Pingtung(屏東) and create a new era of life in the Shashe(殺蛇) River valley.
