Alishan Sacred Tree Ruins Introduction
In 1914, the Alishan Forest Railway was fully opened, and the towering giant tree of Alishan was once one of the most representative landscapes of the Alishan Forest Railway. Together with the small train that travels through the forest, it became an important symbol of Alishan and made Alishan internationally renowned. This majestic Taiwan cypress tree, over three thousand years old, bears witness to the history of Taiwan's forestry culture and nature.
