Dawu Rainbow Street Introduction

On the South Link Highway, people rushing by may notice a brightly painted yellow overpass next to Dawu Township. Heading south, one can see a series of houses with various colorful walls arranged in a radial pattern. This location is known as Dawu Rainbow Street, one of the internationally renowned painting communities sponsored by a famous paint brand. As you walk into Dawu Street from the South Link Highway, you'll be immediately attracted by the vibrant multicolored exterior walls, marking the lively entrance of Dawu Rainbow Street. There are about twenty to thirty households on Dawu Street participating in this project, and through bold color combinations, the originally somewhat dull community has come to life, filled with a passionate and exuberant atmosphere. On Dawu Street, there is also a row of European-style wooden houses, which serve as permanent homes for the residents of the Fushan Tribe, who were forcibly relocated following Typhoon Morakot. Fushan was originally the second-largest Puyuma tribe in Dawu, but due to landslides from the typhoon, their original living area is now uninhabitable, and nearly forty households currently reside here. In addition to their eye-catching appearance, most houses have many indigenous totems displayed at their doorsteps and front yards, harmonizing beautifully with the rich colors of Rainbow Street, making it quite distinctive.
