Wuliao Tribal Village Introduction
Bulbul Tribe is located at kilometer 187 of the Southern Cross-Island Highway, surrounded by mountains, at an altitude of over 700 meters, with a comfortable and pleasant climate. "Bulbul" is a word in the Bunun language, meaning the sound of water bubbling up from the ground, indicating a significant connection to water in this area. Before entering the village, one can see a statue of a hunter carrying a wild boar, which serves as the symbolic entry point, showcasing the brave and fierce spirit of the Bunun people, an indigenous highland tribe. The two ancient cannons displayed in the pavilion behind Bulbul Elementary School bear witness to the courage of the Bunun people who valiantly resisted the Japanese army. Inside the village, one can experience a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, filled with the sounds of insects, birds, and frogs; it feels as though any human-made noise would disrupt this harmonious rhythm. The village is small, characterized by blue, white, and orange bungalows. The sloped lands are planted with corn, plums, and peaches, making late winter to early spring the best time to see the plum and peach blossoms in full bloom. 【Source: Tribe Backpacker, Fong Taitung, Tribe Travel Guide】
