Xinxin Cement Life Park Tourist Factory
This is a spot where you can spend about 1-1.5 hours.
For children, there are some simple amusement facilities, interactive games, and small toys, as well as desserts and ice cream. For adults, those who love ruins architecture might find it interesting. The old cement buildings have a desolate and mysterious feel, reminiscent of the deserted city in Castle in the Sky. Additionally, the souvenirs are quite thematic, including sesame cement crisps, cement truck-shaped cookies, and cement bag-shaped pillows, which are quite unique.

Alishan National Forest Recreation Area
Address: No. 59, Zhongzheng Village, Alishan Township, Chiayi County
Business Hours: 24 hours
Visitor Service Center: 08:00 - 17:00
Ticket: $300
Alishan National Forest Recreation Area is located in Chiayi County. The park boasts five unique sceneries: the forest railway, sacred trees, sea of clouds, sunrise, and sunset. It is one of the most famous and popular forest recreation areas in Taiwan, shining like a dazzling gem in the Alishan mountain range.
The Alishan mountain range is one of Taiwan's five major mountain ranges. Alishan is not a single mountain but refers to the entire area. Historically, it was rich in cypress resources, and from 1912 to 1960, it was Taiwan's largest logging site. After extensive logging, the original cypress forest was almost entirely cut down. Today, there are nearly forty giant red cypress trees along the first and second phase giant tree boardwalks, reminding visitors of the grandeur and sacredness of the past sacred tree forest.
In addition to the sacred trees, Alishan has many other attractions: the forest railway, the ethereal Sisters Ponds, the magnificent sea of clouds, the beautiful Zhushan sunrise, Shouzhen Temple, the century-old Ciyun Temple, forestry historical sites, and various cherry blossoms and rhododendrons blooming in spring. The Alishan Forest Recreation Area is an international-level tourist attraction representing Taiwan's foggy forest belt, welcoming travelers from around the world to explore the rich and beautiful landscapes of Taiwan's mountains and forests.

Chiayi｜Tian Chang Di Jiu Bridge
Address: No. 173-2, Alishan Highway, Fanlu Township, Chiayi County
Opening Hours: 24 hours
Tian Chang Di Jiu Bridge is located in Chiayi; to the north of Chukou Bridge is the 'Di Jiu' Suspension Bridge. After crossing the Di Jiu Bridge, you can reach the 'Tian Chang' Suspension Bridge by climbing the stairs.
The two bridges span the upper reaches of the Bazhang River Valley, standing out beautifully against the backdrop of lush green mountains and clear waters. The Tian Chang and Di Jiu suspension bridges were built during the Japanese colonial period in Showa 12 (1937) and were named to commemorate the Tencho Festival (the Japanese Emperor's birthday) and the Chikyu Festival (the Empress's birthday).
Although many tourists have visited in the past, few know the historical anecdotes. However, the legend of lovers who become a couple under the blessing of 'Tian Chang Di Jiu' has become a popular tale.

Chiayi Hinoki Village: Taiwan's Little Kyoto
Hinoki Village in Chiayi was originally built as official housing during the Japanese colonial period for the Alishan forestry development. Today, it is Taiwan's first forestry cultural and creative park and is also a designated historic site.
Strolling leisurely through the historic Japanese-style buildings, one can enjoy the soothing aroma of cypress mixed with the scent of tea leaves, creating a truly pleasant experience.

Gaia Manor 🖌 Kangni Times Aesthetics Technology Park
There are two tourist attractions in Dalin, Chiayi: Jordenice Castle and Gaia Manor. These two tourist attractions are similar in nature. Jordenice is very European and Gaia is Greek. I chose to come to Gaia, but because we arrived at the same time, it was already. It was quite late, so I didn’t have much time to go shopping or have afternoon tea, but I was very satisfied just taking pictures. After all, it was so beautiful and photogenic here, so of course I had to buy some skin care products back home!

Wanglaishan Pineapple Cultural Park 🖌 Visit the spectacular pineapple fields
There is a huge pineapple field for everyone to visit. It’s so cute to see the newly grown pineapples!
As soon as you enter the store, you will be given free tastings of pineapple cakes and pineapple enzymes.
Outside the store, there was a little black cat who was a dear friend. It ran toward me from a distance and acted coquettishly. Then it ran to play with other tourists, but refused to let me take pictures. It was so lively and cute.
The bougainvillea on the side is in full bloom, so beautiful~~

Around Dalin Station 🖌 Delicious and photogenic📷
When you come to Dalin Railway Station, in addition to watching the trains, there are also business districts around, eating the famous Dalin stinky tofu, and taking pictures of the Japanese-style stationmaster’s dormitory.
The first floor of Dalin Railway Station looks like an ordinary railway station. When you get to the second floor, you will find that it is a wooden station and you can overlook the trains passing by.
The stationmaster's dormitory at Dalin Station is an old Japanese-style house, but it seems to be abandoned now, which is a pity... The trees next to the dormitory are densely branched, and there is no business.
Dalin's stinky tofu is really awesome. You can smell this stinky and fragrant smell from about 200 meters away. It is Dalin's queuing delicacy. The small fish chili is a specialty, but I don't dare to do it if I'm afraid of spicy food. Try it⋯I heard it’s spicy⋯

Hard to find, a time-honored "Japanese dessert" hidden in Chiayi
| Chiayi. Western District｜
I happened to pass by this stall and bought a few dorayaki because it looked so delicious. But I didn’t expect that my character would explode when I ate at this restaurant? The boss will be on vacation during the summer, but the fillings only cost $10-15. The boss is too kind ❤️
Totally worth the money, remember to buy it if you come across it✌️
