木瓜壩

The Papaya Dam stands on the Papaya River, featuring water control facilities and a powerhouse for electricity generation in eastern Taiwan.

Constructed in 1964, the Papaya Dam became a central component of Taiwan's hydroelectric infrastructure, supporting local agricultural development and power generation.

The dam's surrounding communities maintain agricultural traditions, with local farmers cultivating various crops using the regulated water supply.

Visitors can reach the dam through Provincial Highway 8, with parking facilities available and viewing platforms offering perspectives of the reservoir.

The reservoir's water level ranges between 382 and 383.76 meters, regulated through specific control measures during typhoons and heavy rainfall seasons.
