Abstract
Along with the investigation of the “dragon landscape,” the paper focuses on reconnecting and labeling Hakka cultural landscape in the central business district of Longtan, Taoyuan. Longtan is a nameless peri-urban town ignored by the public. Although it is adjacent to the gate of Taiwan, Taipei/Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), travelers at home and abroad have never paid attention to the Hakka cultural landscape they pass by. Even the locals are not sure how to bring their local culture to the new comers through spatial planning and cultural representation. Based on action planning method and town planning strategies, the paper tries to “re-search the dragon landscape” from the angle of multiculturalism.
