🚂 Alishan Train Station

Train enthusiasts will certainly not want to miss taking the iconic Alishan Forest Railway while visiting Alishan in Taiwan. The starting point of the forest railway is Alishan Train Station, a key transportation hub within the Alishan Forest Recreation Area. The station was originally built in 1914 during the Japanese colonial period for the transport of valuable timber, especially cypress and cedar, from the Alishan region. The railway was an engineering marvel at the time, designed to navigate the steep and rugged terrain of the Alishan Mountains. The station itself is a charming, rustic structure that blends into the natural surroundings. The views of the Alishan Forest Recreation Area from the station are spectacular. #chinatrip #100waysoftravel #chiayi #alishan #bus #mountainview #tripblazers #mytripvlog #nature #nationalpark #forest #train #railway #scenicride #scenictrain #mountains
