Wushe Incident Memorial Park
霧社事件紀念公園
A park commemorating the 1930 Wushe Incident, when Seediq people rose against Japanese colonial rule. It has a statue and tomb of Mona Rudao and is the historic site featured in the film Seediq Bale.
Wushe Incident Memorial Park sits at the entrance to the Wushe district, beside Provincial Highway 14. It commemorates the Wushe Incident of October 27, 1930, when Mona Rudao, chief of the Seediq village of Mahebo, led his people in revolt against Japanese colonial rule. The park has a tall memorial gateway inscribed with 'Bixue Yingfeng' (roughly 'Blood-Stained Heroic Spirit'), a monument to the uprising, a statue of Mona Rudao and a cemetery where his remains are buried. Explanatory signs around the park describe how the events unfolded. After the 2011 film Seediq Bale was released, the park became a popular stop for visitors interested in history. Admission is free, and a visit takes about 30 minutes. Wushe town has restaurants, snack stalls and convenience stores, so it's a common supply stop between Cingjing and Puli. You can also make a detour to look down over Bihu Lake. Getting there: Nantou Bus buses to Cingjing stop at 'Wushe,' right by the park. Please be respectful during your visit.
