Jialulan Recreation Area Introduction

Kalaruan is an Amis tribe village in Donghe Township. In the Amis language, it is called "kararuan," which means "a place to wash hair," because the nearby creek is rich in clay minerals that naturally make hair shiny and hydrated after washing. The Kalaruan Recreational Area was originally an abandoned site for soil disposal during the construction of the Zhihang Air Force Base. After several ecological renovations by the Donghe Management Office, new facilities such as parking lots, observation decks, and installation art were added, transforming the abandoned area into a charming recreational area and rest stop.
