Sima Kusi Tribe

Hsinchu Attractions

Sima Kusi Tribe Introduction

Sima Kusi, known as the "God's Tribe," is located in the misty area of the northeast corner of Taiwan, at an elevation of around 1,600 meters. While the village has been developed, the area just two hours on foot from here is still a primitive forest, which is the homeland of the cypress trees. The year 1975 was a significant one for Sima Kusi, as it gained electricity. In 1995, the Sima Kusi Development Association was established, creating churches, homestays, community classrooms, and actively passing on Atayal culture, working together to cultivate this paradise located on the southwestern ridge of the Xueshan Mountain Range. When you come here, please set aside worldly matters and listen attentively to the heavenly sounds of the waterfalls and mountain springs, and feel the majestic grandeur of the ancient cypress trees.
