Taipei City Major Ko Wen-je has recently taken on the role of spokesperson for tourism in Bangka by visiting the “Kushanyuan Hotel”, to seek out a national treasure “He Xiangu (何仙姑).” She learned the art of quilt folding, and informed the public that this hotel is representative of Huaxi Street's history. The Kushanyuan Hotel has undergone modernization while still preserving its 1960s retro design. By holding poetry readings and photography exhibitions and serving as a location in movies such as Monga, it has been transformed into a hotel that foreign backpackers hope to stay in while in Taipei.
