Jiadong Township (佳冬鄉) is a historic Hakka farming community, home to the Xiao family mansion (built 1846) and a long tradition of salt-pond and fish-farming aquaculture alongside dragon-fruit cultivation. Yuguang Elementary, founded in the post-war years, has served this Hakka farming township's families for generations. See the Pingtung county page for more on the region.
