Shihfen Rock Introduction
Shihfen Luohan Mountain is located at approximately 5 kilometers on Provincial Highway 27甲 in Liugui District, and it is known as one of Taiwan's three major Huoyan Mountains along with Huoyan Mountain in Miaoli and Jiujiu Peak in Nantou. Shihfen Luohan Mountain is composed of gravel layers, and due to the varying cementation between the gravel, it is easily eroded by rainwater, exposing dozens of towering peaks that resemble the standing postures of Arhats with different expressions, thus earning its name and the title "Little Guilin of Taiwan." The area features unique geological formations, including isolated peaks, half-faced mountains, cliffs, U-shaped valleys, gorges, meanders, dendritic water systems, and arid canyons, making it a rare natural geography classroom. Currently, Shihfen Luohan Mountain is part of a nature conservation area, and visitors should remember to apply for permission from the Pingtung Forest District Office before entering; it is recommended to stay for about 1-2 hours.
