"The Japanese brought not only their architecture, but their living habits as well," says Associate Professor Wang Hui-chun of National Taiwan University of Science and Technology. Taiwanese have the habit of removing their shoes when they enter a house, and apartment houses are built with an extra Japanese-style room-these are habits the Japanese colonists brought with them that remain with us today.
「日本人帶來的不僅是和式建築，還包括和式的生活習慣，」台灣科技大學建築系所副教授王惠君表示，現代台灣人有習慣進屋脫鞋，或是在公寓裡多留一個和式房，都是日本殖民延續至今的生活習慣。
