Sea of clouds, night views, and paragliding all in one—must-visit hidden gems in Nantou

Text & photos byA-Kuai’s Home

A campsite that offers sea of clouds, sunset, night views, paragliding, and camping all in one—it’s an off-the-beaten-path attraction you can’t miss when visiting Puli. I really love this campsite, especially for photography enthusiasts, as it’s an absolute gem.

Huxiao Mountain Villa boasts a 180-degree panoramic view, overlooking the entire town of Puli. From the sea of clouds at dawn, paragliders soaring freely in the sky, the ever-changing sunset, to the stunning million-dollar night view, and when you’re tired, you can also enjoy the fun of holiday villa camping.

I’ve long grown tired of the monotonous routine of daily life. Here, I can lazily lie on the grass, enjoying the gentle breeze, or busy myself taking photos in every direction. When I’m tired of shooting, I can chat freely with family or friends, truly savoring a morning cup of fragrant green tea, an afternoon of rich coffee, and an evening of delicious wine...

Imagine flying freely like a bird? Enjoying the breeze rushing toward you—only by experiencing it firsthand can you understand how wonderful it is. But to try paragliding, you’ll need a bit of courage too.


What’s it like to glide through the sky on a paraglider? It seems most participants are beginner women. When sliding down from the slope, some scream, some get weak in the knees, and others even lose their shoes. I truly admire those who take on paragliding—they have incredible courage.

Look at all the people having fun? It doesn’t seem as scary as you’d imagine. There are professional instructors accompanying you during the flight, so don’t worry—just let go of everything and you can soar freely in the sky...


Want to fulfill your dream of flying freely in the sky? Paragliding is the best choice. Overlooking the entire town of Puli from above, leave your worries behind and feel the thrill of having the world at your feet.


Watching all kinds of colorful paragliders flying in the sky is so beautiful—like little birds soaring freely... The sight of these “paraglider flowers” is so moving. When they land, everyone gives a thumbs-up—there’s only one word to describe it: “awesome.”


Looking down from high above Puli Town, it’s quite a height, isn’t it? First-timers often feel nervous, but the breathtaking scenery of the town below makes you forget all about the anxiety...


I woke up early to enjoy the gentle morning breeze, took out my camera to snap photos in all directions, and waited for the rising sun.



Staying here, you’ll get to witness all the scenery from morning to night unfold before your eyes, including the morning sea of clouds, daytime paragliders soaring in the sky, dusk’s sunset, romantic night views, and the joy of holiday villa camping when you’re tired.
