Qixingyan or Ch'ihsingyen (chinesisch 七星岩, Pe̍h-ōe-jī Chhit-chheⁿ-gâm), also known as the Vele Rete rocks,[1] 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. Vorlage:Citation needed span Qixingyan is shaped like the Big Dipper, hence the name "Seven Star Reef". It is about Vorlage:Convert from the southernmost point of Taiwan, Eluanbi. 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[2] and the 1871 Japanese merchant vessel Ryukyu which resulted in the Mudan incident.[3]
