Google Maps: https://reurl.cc/j3ayQn 

Wuqi District is a plain situated between the Dajia and Dadut rivers, bordered by Qingshui District to the north, Shalu District to the east, Longjing District to the south, and the Taiwan Strait to the west. Its coastline, formed by Taichung Port, has been integral to its historical prosperity. Formerly known as Bamboo Raft Cave and Wuqi Port, Wuqi lies west of Qingshui Mountain in Qingshui District and is also referred to as Aoxin. Legend has it that the Chinese Phoenix, Wuqi, cannot exist without the Phoenix Tree, holy spring water, and bamboo, hence the name Wuqi.
