Changhua City, County seat in central Taiwan

The capital of Changhua County sits on a flat plain, with numerous villages contributing to its agricultural and industrial activities throughout the territory.

The region changed from Babuza indigenous settlement to Han Chinese territory in the 17th century, later becoming a Japanese administrative center in 1897.

The city maintains the oldest Confucian temple in Taiwan, constructed in 1726, representing centuries of educational and philosophical traditions in the region.

The Changhua Train Station connects to the Taiwan Railways Administration network while Freeway 1 provides direct access to neighboring Taichung city.

A 26-meter-tall Buddha statue stands on Baguashan, marking the city's skyline and serving as a central reference point for residents and visitors.
