Wanshan Tribe Introduction

Wanshan Village is located on the Gaoshan 132 Line in Maolin District. After about 7 kilometers past the Maolin District Office, you will reach the entrance to Wanshan Village. During the Japanese colonial period, Wanshan Village was known as "Mandaulan" and was originally situated at an altitude of 1,475 meters at the foot of Mantoulan Mountain. It used to be the most remote village in Maolin District, and the residents are referred to as "Oupunphuo." The old Wanshan still retains a complete settlement of slate houses and houses the mysterious Wanshan Rock Carvings, "The Mysterious Love Story of Gubacga." Due to the treacherous roads, the village was collectively relocated to its current settlement in the 45th year of the Republic of China. It is recommended to stay for about 30-40 minutes to explore the slate houses and the church located below the village.
