Situated at the foot of Xiaogang Hill, the Fermented Black Soybean Paste Story House, located on Dazhuang Road in Gangshan District, lies along the necessary route from National Highway No.1 (Zhongshan Freeway) leading to the Gangshan Eye. Fermented black soybean paste is one of Gangshan's "Three Treasures" in Kaohsiung, and Ji Bin Fermented Black Soybean Paste is among the top three renowned local brands in online reviews.
The newly established "Ji Bin Fermented Black Soybean Paste Story House" is an innovative project repurposing the idle space of the original Gangshan District Agricultural Association in Kaohsiung City. The venue not only displays and sells Ji Bin's diverse fermented black soybean pastes in an exhibition hall but also collaborates with local small farmers in Gangshan to offer farm specialty products. The vast site features eye-catching "large fermentation vats" and provides scheduled hands-on experiences of mixing the paste. Within the open-air campus, there are stages and indoor areas for conducting DIY food workshops using the soybean paste condiment and hosting various family-friendly events.
The entire painting design of the venue was created through collaboration with the Department of Applied Design from Shu-Te University, integrating local cultural elements. Full of storytelling charm and playful artistry, the design also allows for creative photography opportunities with stunning unexpected visual effects.
