Tobacco Factory and Smoked Memories

Exhibitions

Tobacco Factory and Smoked Memories. The tobacco factory in Pingtung is not only a unique local industrial and cultural heritage, but also an important chapter in human civilization. Tobacco is planted on the gifted and fertile land in Pingtung. From green to yellow, from seeding, harvesting, to processing, it includes local terroir, ancestral wisdom, and diligent labor. Tobacco leaves are processed in detail with various machines, from moisturizing, tip cutting, leaf threshing, re-drying, to packaging. The exhibition reviews cultural essences of this industry in Taiwan.
