Wufeng, Mountain indigenous township in Hsinchu County, Taiwan
Wufeng is a mountain township in Hsinchu County consisting of several villages spread across hilly terrain. The settlements are interconnected through local roads and paths that wind through the landscape.
The area was originally settled by Atayal and Saisiyat peoples who established communities over many centuries. Han Chinese migration arrived later during the Qing dynasty period, introducing new settlement patterns.
The four villages of Wufeng Township preserve indigenous traditions through regular ceremonies, craft making, and community gatherings at the Pas-ta'ai ceremonial ground.
The best time to visit is during warmer months when roads are most accessible and visibility is clearest. Visitors should expect hilly terrain and local paths that require time to explore at a relaxed pace.
Local education centers actively work to maintain indigenous languages and customs while the Guanwu National Forest Recreation Area provides natural exploration opportunities.
