The Alishan Forest Railway climbs from an altitude of 30 meters up to Alishan Station at 2,216 meters, passing through Chiayi City, Zhushan Township, Meishan Township, and Alishan Township. Liyuanliao Station, the only one located in Meishan Township, sits at an altitude of 905 meters. It is an unstaffed flag stop, with very few trains stopping there aside from scheduled meets. Next to the station is an acacia tree scenic viewpoint called “Jianqing Platform,” offering stunning scenery. Even Japan’s Showa Crown Prince and former President Chiang Kai-shek once visited this spot. It is a little-known secret gem of Alishan.

The daytime sun and sea of clouds over Alishan are also must-see wonders. (Image source / Alishan National Forest Recreation Area)
