In Daxi, history flows with the river.
The story of Daxi cannot be told without the Dahan River. Its distinctive three-tiered river terraces gave rise to the town’s unique terrain and rich cultural layers. Walking through its temples, old streets, and historic arches—especially the path from Puji Temple to the Riverfront—you begin to understand how Daxi became Daxi.

Join cultural storyteller Ching-Yao Shih of Muyu Culture and the Desire Theater Troupe for a theatrical journey through time and trade.
