Dajia River

The Dajia River is a river located in Taiwan, flowing through central Taiwan’s rugged terrain. It originates in the mountainous regions and travels through scenic landscapes, eventually draining into the Taiwan Strait. The river plays an important role in local agriculture, ecology, and communities, providing water for farming and sustaining local wildlife. It also has cultural significance, notably hosting the annual Mazu pilgrimage during the Dajia Mazu Festival, where thousands participate in religious rituals along its banks. The river’s environment faces challenges from urban development and pollution, prompting efforts to preserve its natural condition.
