Located in Nanliao Village, Huxi Township, Penghu County, covering an area of 1.79 square kilometers, with a registered population of over 700 people and an actual resident population of about 150. Ancestors gradually migrated to Penghu from Quanzhou, Fujian Province around 1630 AD, engaging in semi-fishing and semi-farming. It was anciently known as 'Gui Bì Gǎng Shè'. Baoning Temple is the central belief of the settlement, enshrining Baosheng Dadi, with a history of over 390 years. Ancestors primarily engaged in near-shore fishing and farming, with some residents working as masons, carpenters, and general construction laborers. With the changing times, the agricultural and fishing village society gradually transformed. The traditional self-sufficient lifestyle could no longer meet the residents' material needs, so most Nanliao residents moved to urban areas for more job opportunities or migrated to Kaohsiung and other places on the main island of Taiwan. The community preserves many traditional Penghu agricultural lifestyles from ancient times to the present, including century-old wells, Yingtou stone charms, pulley water retrieval systems, coral stone vegetable cellars, reed gathering, fish-smoking stoves, arranged coral stone structures, stacked firewood bundles, cow dung pits, ox plowing and cart pulling, coral stone old house clusters, and the craftsmen who built the stacked vegetable cellars, as well as centenarian masters and elders, all of which are community features. There is also an important intangible cultural heritage of Penghu – the masked women. Since 2011, the community has actively promoted community development, preservation of cultural heritage, and improvement of the living environment, participating in county-level initiatives.
