  System: Integrated with the fire service. Every fire brigade operates ambulance teams.
  Ambulance Types:
  Basic life support (BLS) ambulances (staffed by EMT-1 or EMT-2).
  Some advanced life support (ALS) coverage (EMT-P paramedics) available in larger townships like Nantou City, Puli, and Caotun.
  Hospitals: Patients are transported to regional hospitals such as:
  Puli Christian Hospital (埔里基督教醫院)
  Nantou Hospital (MOHW) (南投醫院)
  Zhushan Show Chwan Hospital (竹山秀傳醫院)
  Caotun Sanatorium and Hospital (草屯療養院, includes psychiatric and emergency care)
  
  📞 Emergency Numbers
  119 – Fire & Ambulance (nationwide in Taiwan).
  110 – Police.
  Calling 119 connects you to a dispatcher who will route fire trucks, ambulances, or rescue teams as needed.
  
  🌟 Special Features in Nantou
  Mountain & Hiking Safety: Nantou has high peaks (Hehuanshan, Xueshan trailheads, Jade Mountain access via Xinyi). Specialized mountain rescue units operate in Ren’ai Township and Xinyi Township.
  Water Rescue: At Sun Moon Lake, dedicated fire/EMS teams handle boating accidents, drownings, and ferry safety.
  Disaster Preparedness: After the 1999 Jiji Earthquake (921 earthquake), Nantou County heavily invested in earthquake response and now has trained urban search-and-rescue units.
  
  ✅ Summary:
  Nantou County’s fire and ambulance service is run by the Nantou County Fire Department, with stations spread across all townships. They handle firefighting, EMS, mountain and water rescues, and disaster response. Emergency calls are made via 119, and ambulances connect patients to nearby regional hospitals.

• “Getting to” Nantou – 如何前往南投縣
• Great question! Since Nantou County is landlocked (no airport, no high-speed rail stations), getting there usually means combining high-speed rail (HSR), conventional trains, or buses. Here’s a step-by-step guide depending on where you start:
  
  ✈️ From Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE)
  Airport → Taichung HSR
  Take the Taoyuan Airport MRT to Taoyuan HSR Station (~20 min).
  Board the HSR southbound train to Taichung HSR Station (~40 min).
  Taichung → Nantou
  At Taichung HSR Station, transfer to a Nantou Bus or Taiwan Tourist Shuttle.
  Routes go to Puli, Sun Moon Lake, Qingjing Farm, and Nantou City.
  ⏱️ Total travel time: ~2.5–3 hrs.
  
  🚄 From Taipei
  By High-Speed Rail (HSR)
  Taipei Main Station → Taichung HSR Station (~1 hr).
  Transfer to bus for Nantou.
  By TRA (conventional train)

  🚄 From Kaohsiung (Zuoying HSR Station)
  Take the HSR northbound to Taichung HSR Station (~1 hr).
  Transfer to buses for Nantou.

• Train service in Nantou – 南投縣的火車服務
• Nantou County has very limited train service compared to coastal counties in Taiwan. It’s served only by the Jiji Line (集集線), a branch line of the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA). Here’s a detailed look:
  
  🚆 The Jiji Line (集集線)
  Length: ~29.7 km
  Route: Connects Ershui (in Changhua County) to Checheng (in Nantou County).
  Opened: Early 20th century, originally for transporting materials to the Sun Moon Lake Hydroelectric Project.
  Current Role: Primarily a tourist railway and local connector, rather than a commuter or intercity service.
  
  🚉 Stations in Nantou County
  Within Nantou, the Jiji Line serves several stations:
  Zhuoshui Station (濁水車站) – Mingjian Township
  Longquan Station (龍泉車站) – Jiji Township
  Jiji Station (集集車站) – Jiji Township (most famous, historic wooden design)
  Shuili Station (水里車站) – Shuili Township
  Checheng Station (車埕車站) – Shuili Township (end of the line, near wood industry village & tourist center)
  
  🕑 Service Pattern
  Type of Trains: All trains are local trains (區間車). No express or long-distance TRA services run through Nantou.
  Frequency: About 12–16 trains per day in each direction (varies by weekday/weekend). Roughly every 1–2 hours.
  Travel Time: Ershui → Checheng takes ~70–80 minutes.
  
  🎫 Fares
  Entire line (Ershui ↔ Checheng): about NT$46 one-way.
  Short hops (e.g., Jiji ↔ Shuili): NT$15–20.
  Day Pass: A Jiji Line Day Pass is available for unlimited rides in one day, popular with tourists.
  
  🌟 Tourist Highlights
  Jiji Station – Rebuilt after the 1999 earthquake; now a heritage site with a steam locomotive display.
  Checheng Station – Traditional wooden station; nearby wood sculpture museum and shops.
  Shuili – Connection point for buses to Sun Moon Lake.
  Scenic Views – The line runs along the Zhuoshui River, with greenery and rural landscapes.
  
  ⚠️ Limitations
  No direct rail to Sun Moon Lake or Cingjing – visitors must transfer to buses at Shuili or Puli.
  Not electrified – all trains are diesel multiple units (DMUs).
  Low frequency – more useful for leisure than daily commuting.

• Train stations in Nantou – 南投縣火車站
• Nantou County is served by one train line: the Jiji Line (集集線) of the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA). Here are the stations located in Nantou, plus a couple nearby in Changhua, since the line starts there. All of them run along the scenic Jiji branch, primarily used for tourism and local access rather than mass transit.
• Jiji Station is often noted for its cypress-wood design and historic charm. A steam locomotive on display outside draws visitors. sunmoonlake.gov.tw
• The Jiji Line itself is relatively short (~ 29.7 km) and travels through rural landscapes, part of its appeal as a tourist route. Wikipedia+2Trip.com+2
• Fares are modest: for example, a one-day unlimited pass for rides on the Jiji line exists, making it easy to visit multiple stations in the same day. Wikipedia+2Trip.com+2

• Ferry service in Nantou –南投縣渡輪資訊
• _____ – Ferry service in Nantou -南投縣渡輪資訊
• Nantou County doesn’t have classic sea-ferry services (it’s landlocked), but it does offer water transit across Sun Moon Lake. Here’s a comprehensive guide about those and related services in the area—where they run, how they work, and what to expect.
  
  ⛴️ Sun Moon Lake Ferry / Boat Services
  The main ferry (or lake-boat) operations on Sun Moon Lake are touristic water buses connecting key piers. These are not large cross-lake ferries, but rather shuttle boats for sightseeing and moving between scenic spots.南投好好玩官方網站-精選南投旅遊景點門票、活動體驗及交通推薦+4sunmoonlake.gov.tw+4Wikipedia+4
  Key Piers & Route
  Shuishe Pier, Xuanguang Temple Pier, Ita Thao Pier – these are the three main docking points. Boats circulate counterclockwise among them: Shuishe → Xuanguang → Ita Thao → back to Shuishe.MileHacker+3sunmoonlake.gov.tw+3Wikipedia+3
  The last departures are generally around 5 pm, with frequent departures in the morning through mid-afternoon (every 15-20 minutes when in regular service)南投好好玩官方網站-精選南投旅遊景點門票、活動體驗及交通推薦+4sunmoonlake.gov.tw+4funbus.welcometw.com+4.
  Tickets & Fares
  A one-day lake-boat pass (unlimited hops between the three piers) costs approx. NT$300. If riding single journeys, one way is ~NT$150 and round trips or full circuits cost NT$300.MileHacker+3funbus.welcometw.com+3南投好好玩官方網站-精選南投旅遊景點門票、活動體驗及交通推薦+3
  Tickets available at the piers’ ticket booths; some combo deals include ropeway, sightseeing, or buses.sunmoonlake.gov.tw+1
  What to Expect
  The service is popular for its scenic value: “captain commentary, water views around the lake,” etc.sunmoonlake.gov.tw+1
  Boats generally are accessible—some allow bicycles (extra fee, check with staff)sunmoonlake.gov.tw+1.
  Be aware: on certain days (e.g. Lunar New Year’s Eve) or under severe weather (fog, storms), schedules change or services may stop early.南投好好玩官方網站-精選南投旅遊景點門票、活動體驗及交通推薦+1
  
  🚍 Other Related Water-Plus Transport Services & Connectivity
  While ferries are specific to the lake, there are additional transit modes linking water routes with other attractions and places.
  The Sun Moon Lake Ropeway (gondola lift) connects the lake’s edge to the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village. Not a water service, but often bundled with boat transit for combined sightseeing.Wikipedia+2Wikipedia+2
  Taiwan Tourist Shuttle buses service the lake area: connections to Checheng, Puli, Taichung, etc. These are land routes, sometimes integrated into transportation-and-boat combo tickets.sunmoonlaketrip.net+2MileHacker+2
  
  ✅ Tips for Visitors
  Buy the one-day boat pass if you plan to hop across piers multiple times—it saves money and hassle.
  Start early: first rides around 9 am; services taper off by late afternoon. If you miss the last boat, your only options might be buses or taxis.sunmoonlake.gov.tw+1
  To avoid crowds, visit on weekdays or during non-peak hours.
  Bring some cash (or easy card / iPASS) for tickets. At smaller piers ticket booths may have limited digital service.
  If you’re combining ferry + ropeway + sightseeing, check for combo passes or joint tickets for better value.
