Dongyin Township, Maritime township in Lienchiang Islands, Taiwan.

Two villages, Zhongliu and Lehua, form this 4.4 square kilometer township situated in the East China Sea at coordinates 26.376667N, 120.506667E.

The British government funded Dongyong Lighthouse construction in 1904 after the SS Sobraon steamship ran ashore during heavy fog in 1901.

The population of 1,550 residents maintains strong connections to Fujian traditions through the preservation of the Fuzhou dialect and local customs.

Transportation to this remote township requires either ferry services or flights from other regions of Taiwan, with primary connections through Nangan Island.

Dragon Sea Cave presents a natural sea arch formation along the granite coastline, created through centuries of continuous water erosion.
