Lin Hsien-tang Museum: Mr. Lin Hsien-tang lived in an era when new and old ideas were alternating, and thus possessed the advantages of both new and old intellectuals. The fusion of these two qualities made Mr. Hsien-tang one of the greatest figures in Taiwan in the first half of the 20th century. The museum displays historical documents related to the Wufeng Lin family, ancient documents, the original diary of Lin Xiantang, calligraphy, manuscripts, archives, postcards, as well as daily necessities, furniture and important literati paintings and calligraphy used by the Wufeng Lin family in their early years. Walking into the museum to appreciate Taiwan's handicrafts and exquisite culture is like reading a biography of Mr. Lin Xiantang and a magnificent three-dimensional history of Taiwan.

Lai Garden: The first of the four famous gardens in Taiwan, it is the back garden of the Lin family in Wufeng. In 1893, after Mr. Lin Wenqin passed the imperial examination, he built a garden to express his gratitude to his mother, Mrs. Luo, for her upbringing. The garden was named "Lai Garden" after the story of Lao Laizi entertaining his parents with colorful clothes. Laiyuan is a beautiful forest garden nestled in the mountains and beside the water. The national historic sites of Wugui Tower, Feishang Zuiyue Pavilion, Xiaoxi Pond, and Kapok Bridge cleverly form a perfect combination of nature and humanity. The beautiful scenery has become a famous scenic spot throughout Taiwan.

Rongjingzhai: It was first built in 1838 as a residence. In 1887, Lin Wenqin converted it into a private study (commonly known as Xinxuezai), and named it "Rongjingzhai" after the allusion "Jidi under the Lotus Mirror" in Youyang Zazu. This is the academy where Mr. Lin Xiantang and his relatives studied traditional Chinese studies since childhood. Its architectural style follows the traditional academy layout. The front yard is in the shape of a Confucian temple, with a pond dug. The main hall is a lecture hall, and there is an elegant pavilion in front. It can be said to be the most complete private academy in Taiwan and also the most important Chinese studies education center in the central region at that time.

Jingxun Tower: "Jingxun Tower" is the former residence of Lin Xiantang, the main residence of the Dingcuo system. The main building is divided into three courtyards and nine bays, which is the traditional courtyard-style residence as stated in the saying "a big house with nine rooms and five wings, three floors and one hundred and two doors". Lin Dien-kuo began to build it in 1864. In 1867, Lin Wenfeng completed the inner and outer dragon guards, the main body and the gatehouse of Jingxun Tower in the first floor; in 1883, Lin Wenqin completed the main building of the second floor and part of the third floor. Later, during the Japanese occupation, Lin Xian Tang was renovated, a grape trellis was added in front of the main hall, and the original gatehouse was rebuilt to form the scale we see today. Between the main hall's beams are movable "Eight Diagrams Gate" and "Four Joys" carvings, as well as a double-view painting of "Heroic (Eagle) Standing Alone" on the second floor, and brackets in the shape of "Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate". There are large vase doors on both sides of the main hall, which symbolize safe entry and exit in all seasons. The traditional architectural style is all-encompassing.
