Description of Our Community: Changhua County is located in the mid-western part of Taiwan Island. The Dadu River marks the northern boundry of Changhua County, the Bagua Mountain marks the eastern boundry, and the Zhuoshui River marks the southern boundry. In the west, Changhua County faces the vast Taiwan Strait. Changhua County was first established in 1723 under the control of the Qing Dynasty. The name "Changhua" in Chinese literally means "manifestation of the majestic Emperor's civilization spread over the seas," showing the rule policy of the Qing Dynasty. Changhua is famous for its fertile soil and hence it is called the “Granary of Taiwan.” Besides, the scenic views of mountains and historical architecture are wonderful and attractive. Changhua is also well-known for its local foods. People come to Changhua to enjoy its delicious local snacks. All of these resources make Changhua County a precious place to visit.

Project Description: Changhua County is famous for its local foods, and the meatball is one of the most popular local foods. The meatball not only tastes delicious but also attracts lots of tourists. Most important of all, the meatball is the best memory of many Taiwanese. As a result, we want to interview the locals, to understand the process of making the meatball, and to promote the meatball all over the world by attending the International Schools Cyberfair.
