Wulu Tribal Village Introduction
Bul bul Tribe is located at kilometer 187 of the Southern Cross-Island Highway, surrounded by beautiful mountains and with an elevation of over 700 meters, making the climate comfortable and pleasant. "Bul bul" is a term in the Bunun language, meaning the sound of water bubbling up from the ground, indicating the close relationship of this place with water. Before entering the tribe, visitors can see a statue of a hunter carrying a wild boar, which serves as an emblem of the tribe, showcasing the bravery of the Bunun people, an indigenous group known for their fierce warrior spirit. In the pavilion behind Wulu Elementary School, two ancient cannons are displayed, commemorating the courageous resistance of the Bunun people against the Japanese army. Once inside the tribe, one can feel a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere, with the sounds of insects, birds, and frogs filling the air, making any artificial noise seem disruptive to this harmonious rhythm. The entire village is not large, characterized by small houses painted in blue, white, and orange. The sloped fields of the tribe grow corn, plums, and mei flowering trees, making late winter to early spring the best time for enjoying the blooming of plum and cherry blossoms.
