Tiansongpi Station Introduction
Tian Song Pi Station was built during the Japanese colonial period and was one of the ten stations of the Taiping Mountain Forest Railroad. It served as a major transfer station for transporting timber from the plains into the mountainous areas while also providing passenger services for local residents. However, with the decline of the logging industry and the cessation of train services, the remaining stations along the line were dismantled, leaving Tian Song Pi Station preserved in its original site and state. Today, the former glory is no longer visible, but the station's Japanese-style architecture and quaint appearance remain, allowing visitors to relive the bustling atmosphere of the past. The light blue exterior of Tian Song Pi Station exudes a unique tranquility, making it a popular filming location for the Taiwanese idol drama "Next Stop, Happiness," which has helped boost tourist traffic, attracting visitors for photographs and memories. It is one of the popular attractions in Sanxing Township, Yilan County. Although Tian Song Pi Station is no longer as prosperous and trains no longer whistle by, its contributions during its operational years cannot be erased. Therefore, it's worth visiting to explore the history of this old station or to take a leisurely trip to nearby Chang Pi Lake Scenic Area and Qingshui Geothermal Park.
