-------------------------------
Changhua is known as "the grain store of Taiwan." Surrounded by mountains to the north, south and east, the city faces the Taiwan Straits to the west. The area enjoys a mild climate with adequate rain to make it an excellent agricultural base. Changhua's flower and shrub industry is particularly well-developed. During the Ching dynasty (1644-1911) immigrants from Fukien province first settled around Changhua.
