In this guide, we will tell you the importance of this holiday, how it is celebrated in Taiwan, and also provide a list of historically important places that can help you appreciate the history of this holiday even more. <\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_97d03b-9b\">You can check out our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreignersintaiwan.com\/blog\/national-228-memorial-museum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">the National 228 Memorial Museum here<\/a>, or our blog on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreignersintaiwan.com\/blog\/228-heping-peace-memorial-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">228 Heping Peace Memorial Park here. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Travel Tips Block TTB -->\n<div style=\"\n    border: 2px solid #4CAF50; \/* Colored frame *\/\n    border-radius: 8px;\n    padding: 15px 20px;\n    margin: 20px 0;\n    background-color: #f9f9f9;\n    font-family: 'Lato', Arial, sans-serif;\n    line-height: 1.6;\n    box-shadow: 0px 2px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);\n\">\n    <p style=\"\n        margin-top: 0;\n        font-size: 20px;\n        color: #333333;\n        font-weight: 700;\n        display: flex;\n        align-items: center;\n    \">\n        \ud83c\udfef Planning your trip to Taiwan?

The holiday also represents Taiwan\u2019s efforts toward historical reflection, justice, and reconciliation.<br>The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/February_28_incident\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">February 28 Incident<\/a> was a major political uprising in Taiwan sparked by public anger over corruption, economic hardship, and political discrimination under the Kuomintang (KMT) government. It began when government agents violently cracked down on an illegal cigarette vendor, triggering mass protests. The KMT responded with military force, leading to widespread massacres, martial law, and the suppression of local elites. The incident deepened ethnic divisions and ushered in decades of political repression known as the White Terror and one of the world\u2019s longest periods of martial law, during which time thousands of innocent civilians were sent to prison or executed. For years, discussion of the event was taboo, but from the 1980s onward, efforts for truth, reconciliation, and memorialization have taken place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History of Peace Memorial Day in Taiwan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Peace_Memorial_Day#:~:text=Peace%20Memorial%20Day%20(Chinese%3A%20%E5%92%8C%E5%B9%B3,began%20in%20the%20early%201990s.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Peace Memorial Day<\/a>, also known as the 228 Peace Memorial Day, is a national holiday in Taiwan commemorating the February 28, 1947, 228 Incident. It was legislated as a Memorial Day in 1995 and became a legally designated national holiday in 1997. The decision to make it a public holiday was met with debates over economic impact and national competitiveness, leading to discussions on adjusting national holidays and implementing a two-day weekend policy. Despite attempts to revoke its status as a public holiday by the KMT and pan-blue camps (who would rather forget this part of history), it remains a legally recognized national holiday in Taiwan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What do people do on 228 Peace Memorial Day in Taiwan?<\/h2>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_3888d9-1f\">Typically, there are no special traditions that most people follow on 228 Peace Memorial Day. In general, people are meant to ponder historical events such as the February 28th incident and Taiwan&#8217;s White Terror, as well as think about justice and reconciliation. However, to be honest, in real life, most Taiwanese people may not understand or think very hard about this holiday. <\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_db4562-22, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_db4562-22[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_db4562-22\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_db4562-22 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_db4562-22[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_db4562-22\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading6717_db4562-22 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_db4562-22\">Here is a short list of activities on 228 Peace Memorial Day in Taiwan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raising Flags at Half-mast<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Flags at schools and government institutions are raised at half mast throughout the country to remember the victims of the 228 incident and White Terror. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remembering History: Visiting Historical Locations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On 228 Peace Memorial Day, most people will not be sitting at home thinking about historical events.

It is a time to remember and reflect on our nation&#8217;s past history and the sacrifices that have been made for justice and democracy. By making such a holiday, the Taiwanese government is basically saying that we respect democracy and hope that people will not go back to tyranny and militarism. Obviously, this part of history can be painful for the KMT, whose party was often the perpetrator of many terrible acts against innocent civilians and protesters, and it is clear to see why some in the KMT would want to get rid of this holiday and forget about this part of Taiwan&#8217;s history. Luckily, most people in the KMT and the government are sensible enough to reject this part of their past and try to change the future for the betterment of Taiwan. However, sadly, there are others in the KMT who would be happy to sell our hard-fought democracy to Chinese Communists. <\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6717_c0b97e-a2\">I think the biggest message from this holiday is to make sure nothing like this happens in Taiwan ever again.
