Pingtung County

The territory of Pingtung spans along a narrow strip between the mountains in the north and the waters of the Taiwan Strait and Bashi Channel.

Following Japanese rule until 1945, Pingtung County was officially established in 1950 and became the residence for multiple indigenous communities and Hakka settlers.

The county includes thirty-three townships and maintains the largest concentration of rural and indigenous territories among all counties in Taiwan.

The county features multiple transportation options with railways connecting to Kaohsiung City and Taitung County, along with ferry services from Donggang Township.

At Eluanbi, visitors can observe the convergence of the Pacific Ocean and Taiwan Strait while standing at the southernmost point of Taiwan.
