Description

Zhunan is an urban township in Miaoli County that combines residential neighborhoods, industrial areas, and coastal zones in one area. The township consists of multiple villages spread across a relatively flat landscape near the shoreline.

History

The area was originally named Tiong-káng before being renamed to Zhunan in 1920 during Japanese rule. The new name refers to its southern position relative to bamboo forests in nearby regions.

Culture

The township holds several temples dedicated to Mazu, the goddess protecting fishermen, which remain important gathering places for the community. These shrines shape the spiritual life of residents and welcome visitors to experience local devotion.

Practical

Visitors can easily reach the area through train stations and major highways that provide regional connections. The flat terrain makes exploration on foot or by bicycle straightforward and accessible.
