Erliau Sunrise Viewing Platform Introduction
In the photography community, there are three famous sunrise spots known as the "Three Sacred Grounds of Sunrise": Beigangtou, Zhongwucheng, and Nanyu Liao. What they have in common is the breathtaking low-altitude sea of clouds. Nanyu Liao is especially noted as the lowest altitude sunrise viewing spot in Taiwan, dubbed "the dawn closest to the city." On clear days, just before dawn, one can stand at a high point to gaze towards the east, where the Central Mountain Range emerges in the morning light. The sun leaps out from behind the mountains, casting beams of light that illuminate the chalky hills. The beauty of the lunar landscape is revealed in the ever-changing colors of the clouds and mist. The bamboo shadows sway in the morning light, creating a picturesque ink painting unfolding right before one's eyes. In recent years, a new viewing platform has been constructed, unique for its spaciousness compared to other observation areas. It can accommodate nearly two thousand people, and facilities such as parking lots and restrooms have been set up for pilgrims visiting this breathtaking site.
