The rural areas of High Island are composed of the Hakka villages on the shore and the fishing villages on the water, forming a unique style with the interweaving of two different cultures. At the same time, the natural environment of High Island makes it an even more poetic and picturesque place.
The special village culture combined with the tranquil natural environment give High Island a unique atmosphere.
