Jialan Village Introduction
Jialan Village is located on the northern bank of the downstream of the Taimali River in Jin feng Township. The original name was Buliblosan, which means "foggy." During the Japanese colonial period, under the resettlement policy of the Japanese government, it became a cohabitation area for the Paiwan and Rukai peoples. This place is famous for the renowned open-air hot spring, "Jinfeng Hot Spring," and gained media and public attention due to the impact of Typhoon Morakot in 2009. Overcoming the challenges brought by the typhoon, residents united their efforts to rebuild their homes, transforming Jialan Village into an excellent destination for in-depth tribal tourism. Visitors can pre-book guided tours to walk around and listen to stories, gaining insights into the life wisdom and spirit passed down through generations by the tribe. Follow the village farmers to the fields to harvest hibiscus, DIY making hibiscus preserves, and then taste the sweet and sour hibiscus flower tea. After the agricultural experience, you can taste the most authentic indigenous cuisine, where local ingredients are paired with unique spices, creating special dishes that make one's mouth water. Under the guidance of the village mothers, you can create colorful ceramic bead bracelets, with different colors each having their own meanings, making them the most meaningful souvenirs of this journey.
