位於豐山村聚落入口處

This area was originally a dense forest, with a rich variety of vegetation covering the stones on the ground. The residents of Fengshan Village came here during the Japanese colonial period due to the encouragement from the Japanese to develop camphor resources. They include Hakka people from the Hsinchu mountainous area, as well as residents from nearby Ruili, Ruifeng, and Taixing. At first, the villagers did not know where the stones beneath the forest came from, until recent years when typhoons and heavy rainfall revealed that they were the result of a landslide over a hundred years ago. The Tsou people who lived in this area much earlier left because of the landslide. In 2003, the "Landslide Memorial Park" was established here, which not only built recreational facilities but also introduced the history of life in Fengshan, its industries and culture, as well as knowledge related to landslides through various text and images. Its location is right at the entrance of Fengshan Village, making it the first stop for community tours and environmental education.

Landslide Memorial Park Introduction

This area was originally a dense forest, covered with rich vegetation on the ground's surface and strewn with stones. The residents of Fengshan Village came around the Japanese colonial period, encouraged by the Japanese to develop camphor resources, which included Hakka people from the Hsinchu mountain area and residents from nearby Ruili, Ruifeng, and Taixing. Initially, the villagers did not know where the stones beneath the forest came from until recent years when typhoons and heavy rainfall revealed that they were the result of a landslide that occurred over a hundred years ago. The Tsou people, who lived in this area earlier, had moved away due to the landslide. In 2003, the "Landslide Memorial Park" was established here, which not only constructed recreational facilities over time but also introduced the history of life, industry, and cultural aspects of Fengshan, along with knowledge related to landslides. Its location is at the entrance of Fengshan Village, making it the first stop for community tours and environmental education.
