Introduction

Anping Customs, built in 1926, was where cargo ships stopped to pay tariffs when arriving at or departing Anping. This beautiful red brick Japanese style building under a large tree next to the canal never fails to attract attention. Officially declared a municipal momument in 2003, it is surrounded by art installations that combine with the canal scenery, the scenes created by the merger of modern art and historic site making the Canal Museum a popular Instagram check-in spot. It regularly holds art exhibitions. Inside, it has many photographs and films in which Anping Canal appears and retains a lot of the equipment once used by the Customs, making it like a small-scale history and art museum. .
