Qixingyan or Chihsingyen () is a group of coral islands in the Bashi Channel, located off the southern coast of Pingtung County, Taiwan. The island group is composed by seven coral reefs. At low tide seven reefs are visible. At high tide only two reefs are visible. Qixingyan is shaped like the Big Dipper, hence the name "Seven Star Reef". It is about from the southernmost point of Taiwan, Oluanpi. Due to strong currents and shoals in the area, many ships were wrecked and lives lost in the early to mid-19th century after the Qing court opened trade between the West and China. Notable shipwrecks include the 1867 US merchant ship ''Rover'' that resulted in the Rover incident and the 1871 Japanese merchant vessel ''Ryukyu'' which resulted in the Mudan incident.〔(詮達文教∣高中館∣Free區 )〕 ==See also==
