Alishan Love Tower – A New Romantic Hotspot for “1314” Check-ins

Text / Compiled and Reported by MOOK Scenic Spots Editorial Team

When couples visit Alishan, besides enjoying the picturesque forest scenery, there’s now an added touch of romance. The Ruifeng Haishu Mountain Love Tower is a must-visit spot for hikers and lovebirds alike.

Located along the northwest corridor of the Alishan National Scenic Area, Ruifeng Haishu Mountain stands at an altitude of 1,314 meters. The Haishu Mountain Viewing Platform at the summit, named after its elevation, is marked with “1314 Viewing Platform.” Its homophonic similarity to “one life, one lifetime” has made it not only a romantic IG check-in spot but also a Love Tower featuring multilingual displays of “I love you,” making it the perfect place for couples to take photos, share sweet moments, and confess their love.

The 360-degree panoramic views from the top of Ruifeng Haishu Mountain offer sweeping vistas of Alishan, Dajian and Xiao Jian Mountains, and Bihu Mountain. If you time your visit right, you can also enjoy the sea of clouds at sunrise over the tea fields and the sunset glow, all of which are truly uplifting.

The outwardly simple “1314 Viewing Platform,” originally known as the Haishu Mountain Viewing Platform, against the blue sky and green tea fields, evokes the pure beauty of first love. Stepping up to the highest point of the platform offers even more expansive views of undulating layers of verdant hills, while the sight of tea farmers picking leaves amidst the sprawling tea terraces adds a serene charm to the scene.
