Located on Dongmen Street in Hsinchu City, the former residence of Principal Xin Zhiping is known as one of the famous historic sites. The house, allegedly built around 1922 in the Japanese era, was an official principal’s residence for Shinchiku Junior High School (Today’s National Hsinchu Senior High School). After it was designated as a historic site in 2002, the Hsinchu City government proceeded with extensive renovations in memory of the achievements of Xin Zhiping, a great educator and late principal of Hsinchu Senior High School.
