Shueiliou (Waterflow) Village |
|
 It used to flood here all the time after each heavy rainfall, therefore each household would remove the mud walls quickly prior to the heavy rainfalls, leaving only the lighter bamboo structure, where they can actually carry their “homes” to seek refuge.
 For a long period of time, Shueiliou (Waterflow) Village cultural and humanistic association has been collecting cultural and humanistic histories, legends, industry cultural characteristics and ecological landscapes etc. from various villages in Ciaotou. Besides learning the construction of traditional bamboo houses from the masters, the Shueiliou Village Theater composed of villagers who have passion for performance also present the stories of the village on the platform to convey the spirit of Shueiliou Village. |

Faith for Three-Kings-Temple |
|
The Ciaotou Three- Kings- Temple is a distinguished temple with a history of more than three centuries; the three lords each had a major temple as follows: Temple of the first lord – Three Kings Temple; Temple of the second lord – Jioujiawei Yishan Temple; Temple of the third lord – Three-Kings Temple. Even though these three temples have been renovated, they are still worthy of being visited, as the historical relics of the ancient temples are properly preserved for the later generations to see.
