Gaoshu Township

Gaoshu Township is an administrative division in Pingtung County located in southern Taiwan, encompassing a rural area with multiple village settlements and agricultural zones. The region combines farming land with residential communities spread across its different districts.

Gaoshu's administrative structure was reorganized following major political changes in 1949 that reshaped Taiwan's governance. This restructuring established the township system that continues to define how the region is governed.

The Jiaruipu Temple serves as a gathering place where residents come together for religious celebrations and community events throughout the year. These occasions reflect how local traditions remain woven into daily life.

Local bus routes connect Gaoshu to nearby cities with regular services throughout the day, from early morning until late evening. Visitors exploring the area should check local transportation schedules to plan their movements effectively.

The area maintains a balance between farming and settlement, with multiple village centers serving as local gathering points throughout the region. This mix of agricultural and residential patterns is typical of rural areas in southern Taiwan.
