Ching’ai Hamlet

Ching’ai Hamlet is located on the terrace on the south bank of Zhuoshui River in Ren’ai Township, Nantou County. It is inhabited by the Atayal tribe of the Wanda group from Wanda Hamlet . It is geographically bounded by Xiulin Township and Wanrong Township in Hualien County in the east, Xinyi Township in the south, Wujie Hamlet in the southwest, and connected to Nanfeng, Datong, Chunyang, and Jingying hamlets in the north.

In the post-war period, since the Ching’ai Hamlet did not participate in the Wushe incident in 1930, the National Government adopted the meaning of "kin" and "love" and named it Ching’ai (beloved).
