Launched in 2002, the Alishan Tsou Life Bean Festival is an emerging celebration centered around Tsou group weddings, integrating the cultural, tourism, and industrial resources of the Alishan tribal communities. On the day of the festival, the village is adorned with lanterns and decorations, filled with joy, and features a variety of song and dance performances, creating a carnival-like atmosphere.
