In promoting the beauty of Changhua’s coast and to advocate the concept of environmental conservation, the Changhua County Government is organizing the “Changhua Creative Coastal Tour Itinerary Planning Contest” from now till October 31, 2014, with the grand prize as high as NT$20,000. All college students and independent creators in the county are invited to assemble teams and participate in the contest.
The event is divided into two stages; the preliminary round is held from now till October 31; the final round is scheduled for December 12 and the winning design unveiling will be held on December 19. The Top three creations and five excellent works will be selected, where contestants will be able to introduce the abundant coastal resources of Changhua (production, life, ecology) through their personal journeys and films, so as to generate diverse values for Changhua’s coast.
The coast of Changhua features mudflats that attract countless birds to spend their winter here. At the same time, the area was also used as sea farms by the ancestors of the local community, and the heritage and lifestyle of the traditional fishing village is continued on today. In order to share the concept of “touching mini journey” with travelers, the Changhua County Government has captured the magnificence and characteristics of Changhua’s coast, as well as the area’s thriving “production, life and ecology” in the form of creative itineraries and micro films to evoke a touching sentiment and resonance among the public. The objective of the program is also to raise people’s awareness toward environmental conservation.
