During the Japanese colonial period, this place served as the officers' club for high-ranking Japanese military officials. After the end of the war, it became the office of the Taiyang Coal Mine. The owner of the B&B was attracted by the tranquil environment and good water quality nearby. Despite being secluded, it is close to the police station, providing both health benefits and safety. Therefore, it was purchased and named San Tsai Farm due to its indescribable aura. In a twist of fate, the B&B owner continued the experience of cultivating Ganoderma lucidum (reishi mushrooms) since 1972, establishing a legal B&B and a health-oriented restaurant featuring Ganoderma-based herbal cuisine. The cultivated Ganoderma lucidum grows in spring and autumn, and fresh mushrooms can be tasted at any time. As night falls, the avenue within the area, faintly scented with osmanthus flowers, is graced by the setting sun slowly descending from Yaowang Mountain, highlighting the forest's evening glow, allowing one to feel completely relaxed and forget worldly troubles.

San Tsai Lingzhi Farm Introduction

During the Japanese colonial period, this location served as the club for high-ranking Japanese military officers. After Taiwan's retrocession, it became the office of the Taiyang Coal Mine. The bed and breakfast owner was attracted to the tranquil environment and good water quality nearby, which, although secluded, is close to a police station, making it both health-promoting and safe. They purchased the property and named it "San Cai Farm" due to the indescribable spiritual energy of the place. By chance, the owner continued the experience of cultivating reishi mushrooms that began in 1972, opening a legal bed and breakfast and a health-oriented restaurant specializing in reishi dishes. The reishi mushrooms are cultivated and harvested in spring and autumn, so fresh reishi can be tasted at any time. As night falls, the pleasant scent of osmanthus wafts along the path in the park, with the sunset slowly descending from Yaowang Mountain, creating a beautiful backdrop of forest twilight that soothes the body and mind, allowing one to forget worldly troubles. The farm is filled with the aroma of creative dishes featuring reishi mushrooms, while guests enjoy a leisurely stroll, listening to the sounds of insects and birds and the gentle flow of the creek. The farm offers guided tours of reishi ecology, a tea pavilion for brewing Dongfang Meiren tea, an outdoor barbecue area, and opportunities to make reishi space bags and DIY reishi soap.
