Yihsing

Attractions along Jiaobanshan Sanxing Historic Trail

Yihsing (Gihin) is located in Yisheng village, Fuxing District, Taoyuan City, about three kilometers south of Xiaowulai, on the platform or slope on the right bank of the middle reaches of Dahan River, about 400 meters above sea level. It sits opposite Gaopo across the Dahan River, and can be reached by crossing the suspension bridge from Beiheng Highway. Also known as Gihin, which means sunshine in the Atayal language. It is said that in the past, people from the Xuewunao (Sbunaw) community came and saw the sunshine, they believed that their descendants would prosper if they lived here. So, they moved to settle here and named the place Gihin. It is also said that Gihin means hillside land, grass, and leech, but none of them can be tested. Today, there are Yihsing No. 1 and Yihsing No. 2, so there are many rice fields, and bamboo and mushrooms are produced on the hillside. After the completion of the Yihsing sand-blocking dam on the Dahan River, the Yihsing Power Plant was constructed using hydraulic power.
