Taiwan boasts a diverse range of mountain scenery, and the breathtaking sea of clouds stretching to the sky is truly mesmerizing. This time, our attraction guide will introduce a forest park nestled among the peaks, where you can enjoy both the sea of clouds and lakeside views. The Mt. Taiping National Forest Recreation Area in Yilan is home to precious cypress resources. Nurtured year-round by the Pacific sea breeze and northeastern monsoons, the area enjoys abundant rainfall and is often shrouded in misty rain, making it a cradle for rare tree species.
