=== The introdution of the Bajialuo
The Octagonal Tower currently located in Yanshui was built in the 27th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty (1847 AD). It is an important historical landmark of Yanshui. It was built by Ye Kaihong, a wealthy businessman of the famous sugar suburb "Ye Liancheng" business. Drawn from mainland China, it is the most distinctive typical traditional building in the area. The octagonal building is made of mainland Fuzhou fir and lime, and was completed by a Fuzhou master. It has two halls and is a two-story building. The roof adopts a palace-style spine, with an octagonal roof, and a cloister upstairs, which is made of pure wood. The first floor downstairs is made of red bricks, with carved beams and painted pillars on the front, which is very distinctive.

=== The building style
| {{:gyy-sa:img_6551.jpeg?nolink&300|}} | The octagonal building is a rare pavilion house in Taiwan. Its wooden structure is made of mainland Fuzhou fir. The entire building is supported by twelve large fir trees that are 24 feet long and runs through the first and second floors to the second floor. Beams, couplets, doors, and windows are all completed with mortise and tenon joints. The second floor is made of wooden corridors to make an octagonal shape, and the roof is in the gable style. The internal space is the same as the first floor, with one living room and four rooms, and is decorated with a large number of grids. Doors serve as walls. The front of the first floor is made of wood, while the upper half of the back wall is made of brick and the lower half is made of stone. Because the roof is divided into eight corners, it is named "Octagonal House". It is a classic of Taiwan's loft houses. \\ \\ In addition, there is an 18-petal chrysanthemum decoration on the forehead of the back door, which is a symbol of the Japanese royal family.|
