An academy of classical learning is a place where the civilian
promotes the study climate, hold the school children examinations,
and nurtures the talents. Feng-Yi Academy was built by Chang,Ting-Chin(張廷欽),
the candidate lecture for excellent students(歲貢生), and the local
gentlemen. They invited the teachers, recruited the students to attend
the school to win the scholarly honor, glorify their families. The
study in the academy is the way to promote official career.

As the time went by, public schools replaced classical academies
in Japanese colonial times. Then Feng-Yi Academy became a dormitory
for staff of Fengshan police office. Residents in there were more
complicated after Taiwan was restored. It is like a compound living
place occupied by many households now. The illegal people occupied
vestibules,rooms,corridors and built their houses in the empty places
added the brick wall to remodel the original houses and put lots of
odds and end everywhere. Visitors should detour when they visited. |

board, beams, ridge and brick walls, stone walls have decayed because
of their age. Despite of their spots, we could still see the remaining
objects. It provides students with live materials for local history
