後村堰, Water control structure in Taoyuan, Taiwan.
The Houcun Weir features multiple sluice gates that control water distribution through an intricate network of channels serving agricultural and urban areas.
The infrastructure was constructed in the early twentieth century to address growing irrigation demands and support agricultural development in northern Taiwan.
The weir maintains a central role in local agricultural practices, with farmers depending on its regulated water flow for consistent crop production.
Visitors can reach the site via regular bus services from Taoyuan city center, with designated parking areas available for private vehicles.
This water management facility integrates traditional engineering methods with modern control systems to maintain precise water levels throughout seasonal changes.
