Description of Our Community: “Huatung Valley” is the rife valley between Central Mountain Range and Coastal Mountain Range, containing many steep rivers and creeks which form some fertile alluvial fans. Due to its wide area and low density, it still preserves its pure and abundant natural resources. People in the east have cultivated the land together, which has developed it into an agricultural society and even made it become the major producer of rice in Taiwan. Recently, the government has been actively promoting the theme tour of the native specialty, which makes the Huatung Valley become the “Green Valley.”

Project Description: The Huatung Valley has been the pivotal granary of Taiwan. Its warm climate and the environment without pollution let it be the major producer of excellent rice in Taiwan. Meanwhile, it also has developed the unique rice culture and agriculture tourism. However, what kind of rice has been grown in the valley, what sort of culture does it have, what are the natural attractions interest people to visit here? Let’s explore it!
