Huatan Township, Rural township in Changhua County, Taiwan
Huatan Township is a rural administrative area in Changhua County in central Taiwan. The township comprises multiple villages where farming forms the backbone of the local economy and shapes the everyday landscape.
The area was formerly known as Katangkha before becoming Huatan Township. A railway station opened in 1905, connecting the region to the broader island transportation network.
The township preserves traditional Taiwanese rural life through its agricultural practices, local markets, and community gatherings across its 18 villages.
The railway station connects the township to larger cities like Changhua and makes travel within the region straightforward. Visitors can reach the area most easily by train, with the station serving as the main hub for local connections.
The railway station building itself is constructed in a distinctive local style reflecting early 20th-century engineering. The structure remains an important landmark showing how rail infrastructure shaped rural development in Taiwan.
