The Millennium Camphor Tree of Er'Liao

The Millennium Camphor Tree of Er'Liao

The Millennium Camphor Tree of Er'Liao is located in Er'Liao Village, Beibu Township, Hsinchu County. There stands a thousand-year-old camphor tree with sprawling branches that reach high into the sky, and its trunk is so thick that it takes about three to four adults to encircle it—majestic and awe-inspiring. Surrounding it are many lush trees, forming a small grove. In front of the ancient camphor tree flows a murmuring stream. In summer, the air is filled with the chirping of cicadas, and the shade beneath the tree offers a cool, verdant retreat. When you find yourself with some leisure time, invite a couple of close friends to visit this place. Whether you’re sipping tea and chatting or dozing off for a rest, it’s an incredibly relaxing experience. Look around at the vast fields and fertile farmland, with distant mountains stretching into the horizon. The slopes are covered with tea plantations, and a visit here often leaves you wrapped in the fragrance of tea, offering a serene sense of transcendence.
