Liushidan Mountain Introduction
Hualien has two Jinzen Mountains, one of which is Liushishi Mountain located in Fuli Township, famous for its vast fields of golden daylilies. Every year in August and September, as you wind up the mountain road, you can see the shimmering golden hue dancing among the lush green forests until you reach the mountain ridge. Accompanied by the blue sky and clouds, you can overlook the magnificent expanse of flowers, making it even more enchanting. Even outside the blooming season of daylilies, leisurely wandering through this beautiful and vast landscape with rolling green waves and the occasional red-tiled farmhouse presents a picturesque mountainous scenery. Climbing up to the pavilion allows you to gaze over the fertile rice cultivation area of the Hualien-Taitung Valley, capturing the essence of the valley, reminiscent of Switzerland in Europe. With its pleasant and cool mid-altitude climate, it is also known as "Little Switzerland of Taiwan." Visitors can ascend the mountain throughout the year to experience that European leisurely style, but if you wish to see the golden sea of daylilies, be sure to choose the right season!
