A month before our visit to Alishan Mountain, the Alishan Forest Railway, the most popular method of getting around the national park, has ceased operations due to a major accident. It takes about four hours to reach the peak of the mountain by foot, a task that is too demanding for tourists. So we have had to abandon our original plan and do some brief sightseeing at the foot of the mountain.

However, the change of plans left us with an equally wonderful memory of the area, or rather, a tasty memory to be exact.
