Houtanjing Recreation Area (Panoramic Skywalk)
Located in Fuli Village of Nantou City, Houtanjing Recreation Area is a famous attraction in the Baguashan Scenic Area. The valley here resembles a well, and in front of the valley is a hill that looks like a monkey peering down to the bottom of the well. This is how Houtanjing got its name (monkey peeking at the well).

Qingshuiyan Temple
Legend has it that Qingshuiyan Temple was founded by Master Juetong, a monk from Quanzhou, in 1728. He made a straw shed here while meditating and studying the ways of Buddha, which touched followers. When the number of worshippers increased, fund was gathered to build a temple and the straw shed was built into a temple on 1758, worshipping Sanbao Buddha. Followers also built a closed conduit to guide mountain water and made a well out of it, naming it “Heart Washing Pond”.
