Nangan, Administrative township in Lienchiang County, Taiwan

Nangan Township encompasses Nangan Island, which extends over 10.64 square kilometers and contains nine rural villages at the heart of Matsu archipelago.

The Republic of China military established control over Nangan in 1949, transforming this island into a crucial strategic position in the Taiwan Strait.

The nine villages of Nangan maintain strong traditions connected to maritime heritage, with many residents participating in fishing activities and Mazu worship ceremonies.

Visitors reach Nangan through daily Uni Air flights from Taipei or regular ferry services that connect to neighboring Matsu Islands throughout the year.

The Zhushan Power Plant supplies electricity to the entire township, supporting both residential needs and the local wine distillery production facilities.
