It is worth pointing out that at no time in their 50-year rule did the Japanese attempt to integrate Taiwanese traditions into their architecture. This is understandable insofar as their buildings were intended to demonstrate the superiority of the incoming culture.
值得一提的是，在日據五十年間，日本人幾乎沒有意思去融合台灣本土的建築式樣，如果從統治者欲樹立外來文化的優越性來解釋，自然可以理解。
