Mudan, Mountain indigenous township in Pingtung County, Taiwan.
Mudan Township is a mountainous region in southern Taiwan inhabited by the Paiwan people, with settlements spread across six distinct villages. The landscape combines forested slopes with river valleys and areas of grassland throughout the township.
The area was formerly known as Botansia and has long served as a settlement region for the Paiwan people. The Shihmen Battle represents a significant moment in the community's past.
The Gaoshi Shrine reflects spiritual traditions central to the Paiwan community's identity. Visitors can observe how local people continue to honor these sacred sites as gathering places for their cultural practices.
The area is most accessible during dry weather, and the villages are connected by local roads that wind through the hills. The Mudan Reservoir becomes a focal point during warmer months when outdoor activities are possible.
The Dongyuan Wetlands within the township create a natural habitat for various local species found nowhere else in the region. These protected areas demonstrate how the community balances conservation with local knowledge of the landscape.
