Jijibanana Jiyuan Fruit Tourism Factory Introduction
To talk about the history of Jiji, we must start with "Jiji bananas." Thanks to its unique climate and soil, Jiji bananas are particularly delicious, known for their fragrance, sweetness, high moisture content, and chewy texture, showcasing a distinctive flavor. Taiwan was once renowned as the "Banana Kingdom," and during its early years, it exported a large quantity of bananas to Japan, with the central region bananas playing a significant role. Jiji bananas once pleased the discerning palate of the Japanese emperor, being designated as tribute with baskets marked with the character "千," which guarantees their quality. Introducing the characteristics of Jiji bananas to everyone, visiting Jiji is more than just taking a ride on the small train and enjoying the mountain town scenery; Jiji is filled with historical stories, a once-glorious paradise of bananas.
