Fairy Valley Introduction
Shenxian Valley, located in Nanzhuang, Miaoli, is a gorge formed by the confluence of Luhu Creek, Luchang Creek, and Fengmei Creek. The magnificent canyon landscape and cascading waterfalls are truly breathtaking. After it rains, mist swirls around the waterfalls, making it feel like a fairyland, which is why it is called "Shenxian Valley." Strolling through Shenxian Valley and the suspension bridge, this area is considered a sacred place for the Atayal people and was once known as Death Valley, where the ancestors of the nearby Luchang tribe were buried. It was long closed off but has now been renovated by the management office of the Central Mountain National Scenic Area, with wooden paths and suspension bridges carved with indigenous totems installed, allowing visitors to safely appreciate the beautiful scenery. Standing on the suspension bridge offers a panoramic view of Shenxian Valley, with the giant boulders spanning the canyon, the magnificent gorge, and the imposing waterfalls all showcasing the wonders of nature. This stunning landscape has also caught the attention of director Wei Te-sheng, becoming one of the filming locations for the movie "Seediq Bale." The tribal landscape restaurant provides a close-up view of the waterfall scenery. Besides enjoying the view from the suspension bridge, the Qifunzui Restaurant at the trail entrance also offers options for closer observation of the waterfall. The restaurant's interior and dishes are infused with tribal charm, and by walking down the stairs through the restaurant, visitors can enjoy an even closer perspective of the majestic waterfalls of Shenxian Valley.
