What to expect

Alishan Scenic Area is an iconic attraction in Taiwan. The Alishan Mountain Range, consisting of 18 large mountains, covers a vast area. The essence of natural beauty is concentrated in the "Alishan Forest Recreation Area". The five wonders of "sunrise, sea of ​​clouds, sunset, forest, and train" can all be appreciated here. When tourists mention "going to Alishan", they usually mean coming here.

On clear days, the Alishan sunrise is not to be missed. Within the recreation area, the renowned Zhushan and Xiaoliyuanshan Observation Deck offer unobstructed views of the Yushan peaks, the Central Mountain Range, Tashan, and other mountain ranges. The stunning spectacle of light and shadow as the sun rises is a truly memorable experience. Sunrise occurs around 5:00 a.m. on the summer solstice, around 7:00 a.m. on the winter, and around 6:00 a.m. on the spring and autumn equinoxes. Staying within the recreation area is recommended for sunrise viewing. Please bring a flashlight, a thick jacket, and comfortable walking shoes.

Sea of ​​Clouds: The Alishan Sea of ​​Clouds, one of Taiwan's eight scenic spots, often appears in the early morning or dusk when the weather is clear and cloudy in autumn and winter. Recommended places to enjoy the sea of ​​clouds in the recreation area include the observation deck next to the Gaoshan Museum, Alishan Hotel, Alishan Railway Station, Zhuoping Park, Ogasawara Mountain Observation Deck, and near the first parking lot.

Sunset: Due to the thin air and strong solar radiation in the high mountains, the blue sky is more vibrant than on the plains, and the sunset glow is even more vibrant. Ciyun Temple, Alishan Guesthouse, Alishan Railway Station, Zhaoping Park, Duigaoyue, Mt. Ogasawara, and the area near the first parking lot are all good spots to view the Alishan sunset.

Alishan was originally one of Taiwan's three largest forests. As the altitude gradually increases, you can see all kinds of plants from tropical to temperate zones. Cherry blossoms fly in the spring, red leaves cover the mountains in autumn, and there are also amazing thousand-year-old red cypress forests. You can walk through the forest along the more than 600-meter-long wooden plank road and enjoy a long-lost natural forest bath.

Trains: The red train weaving through the cherry blossom forest has become a symbol of Alishan. This retro train, once used to transport timber, is now a popular tourist attraction. Railways run from Chiayi Train Station all the way to the amusement park. The Zhushan Line is perfect for sunrise viewing, while the Shenmu Line reaches the towering forest. Both lines offer convenient access to the entire amusement park.

In addition to the charming natural scenery, the recreation area also has many cultural attractions, including the Alishan VIP Hotel, the Alpine Museum, the Tree Spirit Pagoda... Alpine tea is Alishan's number one specialty souvenir. You can buy some around Alishan Railway Station and Fenqihu Old Street as a gift to your friends and family.
