According to The Record of Hualien County, the place was called "Kilai" ([[wikt:奇萊|奇萊]]; [[Kilaai]]) by the native Austronesian inhabitants of Taiwan. Spanish settlers arrived in 1622 to pan for gold. Picking up the sounds of native words, these settlers called the area "Turumoan" (多羅滿). Han Chinese settlers arrived in 1851.
