“Pisirian” means “the place for sheep farming” in the language of Amis. This was the place where the Amis raised sheep in the past, yet as time went by, the sheep-raising practice became less and less popular.
The local community collaborates with the residents and artists to preserve the unique culture of this area by adorning the neighborhood with installation arts and murals.
The most representative art, of course, is the adorable huge sheep made from driftwoods.

Located in the northern area of Fugang Fishing Port (富岡漁港), XiaoYeLiu Geopark is the southernmost scenic spot on the eastern coast. The name, “XiaoYeLiu”, originates from the similarity of topography and rocks to the YeLiu Geopark in New Taipei City.
From May to October, the Geopark offers the “Night Visit” event for those who are interested in nighttime ecology. Among all the creatures, hermit crabs are the main attraction of the event.
