Budai Township

Budai Township is situated in the southwestern part of the Chianan Plain, directly bordering the Taiwan Strait. The landscape is predominantly flat, sculpted by the silting action of the Bazhang River. This coastal township covers an area of approximately 59 square kilometers, with Dongshi Township to its north.

Chiayi County, nestled between mountains and the sea, is uniquely recognized for its three major national scenic areas: Alishan National Scenic Area, Southwest Coast National Scenic Area, and Siraya National Scenic Area. Each area offers a distinct natural spectacle, from majestic mountains to sweeping plains, showcasing Taiwan's diverse landscapes.

While Budai Township offers its own coastal charm, nearby Chiayi County boasts several well-loved spots. Visitors often enjoy the historical Hinoki Village, the serene Chiayi Park, the culturally rich Museum of Ancient Taiwan Tiles, and the vibrant Wenhua Road Night Market. The Alishan Forestry Village also draws many tourists.

No, Chiayi is not located in Taichung. Chiayi city is a distinct administrative region situated between Taichung to the north and Tainan to the south. It's a city with a population of just under 300,000 inhabitants.

Budai Township is characterized by its flat terrain, a result of the silting processes from the Bazhang River. It lies in the southwest of the Chianan Plain and has a significant coastline along the Taiwan Strait. This geography shapes its unique coastal environment and agricultural landscape.
