Jhushan Township

Jhushan Township is an administrative division in southwestern Nantou County featuring agricultural land and mountains covered with bamboo forests. The area is defined by natural boundaries and has settlement centers where markets, schools, and community services cluster together.

The area was shaped by farming over centuries, with bamboo defining both the economy and the region's name. This identity remained central even as modern infrastructure and administrative structures developed.

The township maintains bamboo craftsmanship traditions that are visible in workshops throughout the community. These skills are passed down through families and shape how locals engage with their surrounding landscape.

Visitors can reach the township using public buses, and main roads connect it well to surrounding areas. Travelers passing through find the best entry points via the major expressway on the eastern side.

The township hosts a regional emergency coordination center that operates behind the scenes during crises. This hidden role makes the place a quiet hub for regional safety.
