Colorful Flower Season

Introduction

In the Dharma Drum Mountain, the colors of buildings consist mostly of brown, gray and white, praising for bounty of earth and reflecting the solemnity and equanimity of Buddhism. There are three pilgrimage routes up in the mountain: Xibing Trail, Qiyuan Trail, and Chaoshan path. Along the Xibing Trail, there are spots for people to practice meditation. The site is surrounded by two streams and the quiet and beautiful scenery can stabilize a cluttered mind. The site regularly organizes meditation activities to help wash away the stresses and worries of the secular world.

How to Get There

Choose a transportation method based on your departure location.

Old Caoling Belt Bikeway

The “Old Caoling Belt Bikeway” is 20km long, and it takes about a two-hour ride. Starting from the “Fulong Railway Station”, visitors can see the charm of Guishan Island from afar, the undulating coastline and spectacular cliffs, making the bikeway a must-visit spot for watching the “mountain and sea together” scene.

Wulai Forestry Museum

T he Wulai Forestry Museum, which is next to the ticket office of Taiwan Railway and the result of five-year preparation by the Forestry Bureau, opened earlier this year. The museum presents the development of the forestry industry in Wulai and is an ideal destination if you do not have much knowledge about the history of rail carts and the local forestry industry.
