長春祠位於台灣花蓮縣秀林鄉之太魯閣國家公園區內,距離太魯閣口2.3公里處,是為了奉祀當年闢建台八線中橫公路的施工過程中,不幸因公殉職的225位工程人員靈位。由於中橫公路工程艱鉅,時有傷亡,當時的台灣省公路局為了告慰英靈,於是在1958年,擇定公路對岸的湧泉水瀑上方築祠。
Eternal Spring Shrine, also called
Changchun Shrine (
Chinese:
長春祠;
pinyin:
Chángchūn cí;
Pe̍h-ōe-jī:
Tiông-chhun-sû; literally: "Ancestral shrine of Eternal, or Long, Spring"), is a landmark and a memorial shrine complex in
Taroko National Park in
Taiwan, in
Hualian County near town of
Xiulin. It is one of the major picturesque points of the park, with the view of the mountains and the waterfall, and one of the main memorials for veterans.
It was planned for construction in 1958 while the
Central Cross-Island Highway was built nearby. It commemorates the memory of 212 veterans who died while constructing the highway (1956—1960).
The name of the temple comes from the
Changchun Falls that never stop running.
[1] The Shrine is located right above the waterfall streams.
It has been rebuilt at least twice, after being destroyed by
landslides. The most recent shrine was built in 1989.
