Fairy Valley Introduction
Shenxian Valley, located in Nanzhuang, Miaoli, is a gorge formed by the confluence of Luhuxi, Luchangxi, and Fengmeixi rivers. The majestic gorge landscape and cascading waterfalls are truly breathtaking. After a rainfall, clouds and mist swirl around the waterfall, resembling a fairyland, which is why it has been aptly named "Shenxian Valley." Strolling through the Shenxian Valley and the suspension bridge, visitors can find a sacred site for the Atayal people, formerly known as Death Valley, which was a burial ground for ancestors near the Luchang tribe. This area was long closed off but has been renovated by the management office of the Sanxia National Scenic Area. Today, wooden walkways and a suspension bridge adorned with indigenous motifs allow visitors to safely appreciate the beauty. Standing on the bridge offers stunning views of the gorge, the massive boulders spanning the valley, the impressive cliffs, and the grand waterfall group, leaving one in awe of nature's craftsmanship. This magnificent scenery has also caught the attention of director Wei Te-sheng, becoming one of the filming locations for the movie "Seediq Bale." For a closer view of the waterfall beauty, the Qifenzui Restaurant at the entrance of the walkway offers an option to appreciate the waterfall from a nearby perspective. The restaurant's interior and cuisine reflect rich tribal culture, and descending the stairs through the restaurant allows for even closer observation of the magnificent waterfall landscape of Shenxian Valley.
