Wuwei Port is located on the Southeast side of Lanyang Plain, adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. Wuwei Port was a functional harbor on the mouth of the serene Xicheng River. However, due to too much sediment along the waterway near the river mouth, the harbor became a coastal swamp. According to "Kavalan Historical Geography" Wuwei Port was named "Masai Port" in the Qing Dynasty. Occupying 102 hectares, Wuwei Port is rife with aquatic animals and plants and is situated on the routes through which migratory birds travel in falls and winters. As a result, in 1993, Wuwei Port was officially established as the first waterfowl conservation in Taiwan and is one of the major wintering sites for wild geese.
