Wanshan Village Introduction
Wanshan Village is located on Highway 132 in Maolin District. After passing the Maolin District Office, it takes about 7 kilometers to reach the entrance of Wanshan Village. During the Japanese occupation, Wanshan Village was known as "Mandaulan," and the original settlement was situated at an altitude of 1,475 meters below Mantoulan Mountain. It used to be the most remote village in Maolin District, and the residents referred to themselves as "Oupunphuo." The old Wanshan still retains a complete slate-roofed settlement and houses the mysterious Wanshan Rock Carving Group, known for the "Mystical Love Story of the Cliffs." Due to the treacherous roads, the village was collectively relocated to its current location in 1956. It is recommended to stay for about 30-40 minutes to explore the slate-roofed houses and the Catholic Church located in the lower part of the village.
