Sword Well, Water well in Dajia District, Taiwan

Sword Well is a small water well in Dajia District with a cylindrical stone structure about 0.5 meters (1.6 feet) in diameter. It remains visible as a simple circular opening in the ground where people once drew water by hand.

The well was built to supply water to residents and farmers in the Dajia area during earlier centuries. Its existence reflects how communities once depended on such simple sources to survive and work the land.

Local people pass by the well throughout the day and acknowledge its role in their community's past relationship with water sources. The spot marks where daily life once depended entirely on what came from below ground.

The well sits in an open area of the district and is accessible on foot without special equipment or schedules. You can walk up and view it at any time since it remains outdoors as part of the local landscape.

The name Sword Well comes from a local legend about a blade buried near the spring long ago. This story gives the ordinary-looking structure a layer of intrigue that visitors find memorable.
