From Fangyuan to Tacheng is the largest pristine stretch of shoreline in Changhua. Because the coast from Fangyuan northward has all been reclaimed from the sea, this original pristine beach and its ecological systems are particularly precious. Even more frighteningly, the Tacheng Industrial Park is slated to include high polluters such as petrochemical and steel plants.
