Tiger Leopard Pond Introduction
Huliandian, located near Tai Ping Elementary School, is the source of the northern tributary of the Beishi River. The two hills beside the pond resemble a fierce tiger and a clouded leopard, hence the name Huliandian, which also has a pleasant nickname, "Little Jiuzhaigou of Northern Taiwan." The scenic mountainous landscape is beautiful, and in autumn, visitors can admire the golden grass covering the hills and valleys. The dark green and deep lake water reflects the surrounding mountain colors and tree shadows. At the foot of the mountain next to the pond, a circular trail has been planned to show off the beautiful scenery. In the fall, visitors can also appreciate the golden grass throughout the hills and valleys. Tourists can ascend the observation platform to overlook the natural beauty of Huliandian. It has now been developed into a waterfront scenic area, complete with ecological wooden plank trails and observation platforms that provide stunning views of Huliandian. Every holiday, mountain climbers and young students visit with companions to enjoy the beautiful pond and water scenery. With the success of the fishing ban, the fish population has become plentiful, making it a popular fish-watching spot. Those who want to see fish may consider bringing toast to feed them, watching as the fish compete for food and exhibit their vibrant life force—definitely worth the trip. The best time for photography at Huliandian is in the afternoon before four o'clock. Due to the dense forest surrounding it, sunlight can only filter in after noon, and the oblique light is more favorable for showcasing depth and layers! Visitors are reminded to pay attention to weather conditions that may affect water levels.
