Chenggong Township or Chengkung Township (Шаблон:Zh) is an urban township in Taitung County, Taiwan. It is a coastal town facing the Pacific Ocean. Chenggong Fish Harbor is just west of downtown.
History
Chenggong was originally an Amis settlement from which came the Hokkien name Moalaulau (Шаблон:Zh).[1] During Japanese rule, it was renamed to Шаблон:Nihongo of Taitō Prefecture. After 1945, to avoid confusion with Singang Township of Chiayi County and to distinguish it from Tainan's Sinckan (now called Sinshih), it was changed to Chenggong, which commemorates the eponymous general Koxinga (Cheng Ch'eng-kung) who expelled the Dutch from Taiwan.
Geography
The township has 13,193 inhabitants and its total area is 144.9938 km².[2]
