Wulu Tribe Introduction
Bul bul Tribal Village is located at the 187 km mark on the Southern Cross-Island Highway, surrounded by mountains and sitting at an elevation of over 700 meters, providing a comfortable and pleasant climate. "Bul bul" is a word in the Bunun language meaning "the sound of water bubbling up from the ground," indicating the significant connection between this place and water. Before entering the village, visitors can see a statue of a hunter holding a mountain pig, serving as the symbolic entrance of the village and showcasing the valiant spirit of the highland Bunun people. Behind Wulu Elementary School, two ancient cannons displayed in a gazebo testify to the bravery of the Bunun people who resisted the Japanese army here. Entering the village, one can feel it is a very peaceful and quiet place, filled with the sounds of insects, birds, and frogs; any man-made noise seems to disrupt this harmonious rhythm. The entire village is small, characterized by little houses painted in blue, white, and orange. The sloped lands of the village are planted with corn, plums, and apricots, making late winter to early spring the best time to see blooming plum and apricot flowers. 【Source: Tribal Backpacker, Feng Taitung, Tribal Travel Guide】
