Laiyi Township is east of Xinpi and north of Chunrh. It's very big, but not many people live there. Most of the people that do are members of the Paiwan Tribe. Their larger villages are all near the western edge of the township. 來義鄉位於新埤東部，春日的北部。來義鄉很大，可是人口很少。居民大部分是排灣族。他們最大的部落在來義鄉的西部。
Several villages in Laiyi have been moved from their original locations. Thus there's "Laiyi Village" and "Old Laiyi Village." Is it because of climate change? Or just because people moved away? I know of one village that was relocated after an especially strong typhoon, but there are others I'm not so sure about. 來義鄉的幾個部落是從原來的地方遷移來的，所以有來義部落跟舊來義村部落。是世界氣候變遷嗎？還是因為居民想搬到別的地方？我聽說其中一個部落是受到颱風重創而遷村，可是其他部落我就不清楚了。
According to the last census, there are 2,262 people living in Laiyi. 上次的人口統計表示來義鄉的人口是2,262人。
That village on the left is Nanhe, across the Lili River from Chunrh. 照片裡左邊的部落是南和，與春日各據力里溪的二邊。
There's a small aboriginal museum in Nanhe Village. If you're in the area and interested in Paiwan culture it's worth a visit. 南和有一棟原住民博物館。對排灣文化有興趣的旅客應該去參觀一下。
On the other side of Nanhe a road leads over a hill to the Mountainside Highway (185). 南和另外一邊有條小路越過山坡往沿山公路。
Further north, near the village of Wangjia, is this guy. 這位先生在北邊的望嘉村附近。
Still further north is Wenle Village. 繼續往北就到文樂部落。 (1)

Further north than that is Danlin Village. 更北邊有丹林部落。
This picture was taken from Danlin, looking down at the Linbian River. The haze in the sky is dust. It hadn't rained in a while. 從丹林往下看林邊溪。空氣中的灰塵很多。很久沒有下雨了。
This is a food "festival" in Danlin. Vendors were selling coffee, donuts and a few other things. 丹林的農民市集。有人賣咖啡，甜甜圈，還有些其他東西。
The Danlin Suspension Bridge. It's fairly popular with tourists. 丹林吊橋。這裡很受旅客的青睞。

1. Here it gets confusing, because Wenle, where Wenle Elementary School is located, is sometimes also referred to as Laiyi, and Google Maps labels it "Xinle." A student at Wenle Elementary School once tried to explain the reasoning behind the various names to me. All I got out of the conversation was a headache.
