Introduction to Shiyi Building: Shiyi Building is a horse racing building, which is a gathering place for poets and scholars to have night banquets, recite poems and discuss poems. In the early years, the literary style in Lukang was at its peak. Some elegant literati often invited each other to sing in the evening, cook and talk, or drink tea and look at the moon. According to legend, the owner of Shiyi Tower was a very hospitable gentleman. In order to allow guests to lean on the railing and look at the moon from a high place, a horse racing gallery was built between the two connected floors for guests to lean on the railing and look at the moon.
