Wujie Dam, Gravity dam in Nantou County, Taiwan
Located northeast of Sun Moon Lake, Wujie Dam crosses the Zhuoshui River with a height of 57.6 meters and a length of 86.5 meters.
The construction started in 1919 during Japanese rule as part of the Sun Moon Lake hydroelectric project, with completion achieved in 1934 after several interruptions.
The dam area neighbors indigenous communities of Taiwan, particularly the Wujie settlement, which maintains traditional practices and local customs.
Six floodgates control water flow and sediment discharge, directing water through tunnels to Sun Moon Lake for hydroelectric power generation and irrigation purposes.
In 2006, Taiwan Power Company constructed a new water tunnel to replace the deteriorating original structure while maintaining water supply to Sun Moon Lake.
