Taihsi Township

Taixi Township is a rural administrative area in Yunlin County that reaches the Taiwan Strait coastline. The flat landscape covers roughly 54 square kilometers and is organized into 15 villages with distinct identities.

The area was originally called Haikou before being renamed Taixi in 1941 during a period of administrative changes across Taiwan. This shift reflected broader reorganization efforts in the region's governance.

The township is deeply connected to farming, especially radish cultivation that has shaped daily life for generations. This tradition remains visible in how residents relate to their land and its seasonal rhythms.

The township is connected to neighboring areas by local roads and transportation links within Yunlin County. Visitors should expect flat terrain and can easily explore the coastal setting on foot or by local transport.

The Taixi Seaside Park contains a large wetland area that draws migratory birds and intertidal species. This park serves as a crucial stopover point for birds traveling between Asia and beyond.
