Fairy Valley

Miaoli Attractions

Fairy Valley Introduction

Shenxian Valley, located in Nanzhuang, Miaoli, is a canyon formed by the confluence of Luhu Creek, Luchang Creek, and Fengmei Creek. The majestic canyon landscape and the cascading waterfalls are truly breathtaking. After rain, the mist envelops the waterfalls, creating a sense of being in a fairyland, which is why it is aptly named "Shenxian Valley." Walking through the Shenxian Valley, the waterfalls, and the suspension bridge, you will find that this area is a sacred site for the Atayal people, historically known as Death Valley, a burial place for ancestors near the Luchang village. It was closed off for many years, but after renovations by the management office of the Sanxia National Scenic Area, wooden walkways and a suspension bridge adorned with indigenous totems have been established, allowing visitors to safely appreciate the beautiful scenery. Standing on the suspension bridge offers a panoramic view of Shenxian Valley's beauty, including the towering boulders, magnificent canyon, and the impressive waterfall clusters, leaving one in awe of nature's craftsmanship. Such scenic beauty has also caught the attention of director Wei Te-sheng, making it one of the filming locations for the movie "Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale." The tribal landscape restaurant provides a close-up view of the waterfall. In addition to enjoying Shenxian Valley from the suspension bridge, the Qifen Zui restaurant at the trail entrance offers a choice for closer appreciation of the waterfall's beauty. The restaurant exudes tribal charm in both its decor and cuisine, and by walking down the stairs through the restaurant, you can view the majestic waterfalls of Shenxian Valley from an even closer perspective.
