The Zhou’s Chastity Arch is located at the entrance of No. 36, Section 1, Fengnian Road, Beitou District. It was built to commend Zhou. Zhou Juan, mother of Chen, lost her husband early and remained chaste to raise her child alone. She was extremely filial in serving her parents-in-law. Her steadfast deeds were reported by Chen Weiying, a secretary in the Cabinet. An imperial decree was issued to erect an arch to praise her. The arch was built in 1897. During the earthquake in that year, the part above the second floor of the arch collapsed. In recent years, it has been restored and has now become an important landmark in the local area. The arch of Zhou Juan, mother of Chen, warns people to be filial. Open all year round and all day. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.
