Wulu Tribe Introduction

Bulbul Tribe is located at the 187-kilometer mark of the Southern Cross-Island Highway, surrounded by mountains at an elevation of over 700 meters, making it a comfortable and pleasant climate. "Bulbul" is a word in the Bunun language meaning the sound of water bubbling up from the ground, indicating the area's strong connection to water. Before entering the tribe, visitors can see a statue of a hunter carrying a wild boar, which serves as the entrance symbol of the village, showcasing the bravery and warrior spirit of the Bunun people, an indigenous highland tribe. Behind the Bulbul Elementary School, two ancient cannons on display in a pavilion testify to the Bunun people's valiant resistance against the Japanese army. Inside the village, one can feel the serene and quiet atmosphere, filled with the sounds of insects, birds, and frogs; any human-made noise seems to disrupt this harmonious rhythm. The village is small, characterized by blue, white, and orange houses. The hillside is planted with corn, plums, and梅子, making late winter and early spring the best times to enjoy the blooming plum and plum flowers.【Source: Tribe Backpacker - Feng Taitung Tribe Travel Guide】
