Jia-nian-duan Hamlet is located on the right bank of the lower reaches of Danda river, on the southern mountainside of Mount Jia-nian-duan in Xinyi Township, Nantou County. It is about 1,550 meters above sea level, and is a hamlet formed by the Bunun people of the Luan group who migrated here.
During the Japanese occupation, the Government-General in Taiwan set up a police post and an education center in Jia-nian-duan Hamlet. The formation of the building can still be clearly seen today, and there are three-tier terraces on the foundation platform. Jia-nian-duan Hamlet ruins can be reached from going down a path that is about 8 km away from the Danda Forest Road checkpoint.
Nowadays, there are around eight slate houses remaining that are relatively complete in shape but are covered with a forest of bamboo.
