We estimate 6 student(s) from 11 to 13 will work on this entry.

Description of Our Community: Our topic is the exploration of the origins of Route 169, and the effects this road has had on the Taihe community. In addition, we will be covering the geographical characteristics, the local specialties produced, and the cultural and anthropological assets of the region. The main goal therefore, is to inform and educate the current generation, allowing them to appreciate the hard work and painstaking efforts required to create the Taihe community, which will hopefully lead to a greater understanding and love for this land.

Project Description: Our main topic is the origins of Route 169 of Taihe village, Meishan Township Chiayi County. This route runs from the Shecianhu Community, and passes through Changsuhu, all the way to Fenchihu of Alishan Township, Chiayi County. Because it runs at an elevation ranging from 800 to 1200 meters, the scenery along this route is extremely, beautiful, with stunning mountain ranges and a diverse ecological environment, which is home to a variety of plant life. Because of the highly varying elevation of this region, one can only imagine the difficulties and hardships faced in the initial construction of Route 169.
