[2025 Nantou Attraction] Travel Guide for Buqaiz (Updated Apr)

Address: No. 41, Wu'an Road, Ren'ai Township, Nantou County, 546 Taiwan Features: Steel cable bridge between valleys The entrance to Wu Jie Dam and Momonaer Waterfall can be found by walking a short distance down from Siyuan Inn. The small suspension bridge, made of steel cables, spans 100 meters. It's a great place to rest after visiting the waterfall, with delicious Magao sausages, refreshing Aiyu jelly, and unbeatable mountain views. Beautiful! After crossing the bridge, there's a steep slope that requires some mental preparation. Further up is the Taipower dormitory and the starting point to Momonaer Waterfall at the Earth God Temple. From the dam body, you can see the full view of the Zhuoshui River. It is recommended to visit during the full water period to experience the grandeur of the reservoir.

Wujie Tribe is located in Ren'ai Township, Nantou, and is a hidden indigenous tribe deep in the mountains. In recent years, it has gained attention for its stunning sea of clouds and cherry blossom forest. The cherry blossom season here usually falls from mid-February to early March. The hills surrounding the tribe are filled with pink mountain cherry blossoms, and when the season arrives, the entire mountain forest is painted with romantic cherry blossom colors. One of the features of Wujie Tribe is the morning sea of clouds. Visitors can climb to a high point at sunrise to admire the spectacular scene of cherry blossoms intertwined with the sea of clouds, creating a fairyland-like view that leaves people in awe. Additionally, the tribe offers many indigenous cultural experiences, such as archery, bamboo tube rice, and stone slab barbecue, making the trip even more enriching and interesting. Due to the remote location of Wujie Tribe, it is recommended to drive there. The winding mountain roads require careful driving. The area has relatively few tourists, making it ideal for travelers who want to avoid crowds and quietly enjoy the cherry blossoms.

Maran Yunpu Garden is located at an altitude of 1400 meters within the Wujie Tea Plantation area, covering approximately 13 hectares. Visitors can enjoy Wujie's 'Three Treasures' - sunrise, sea of clouds, and cloud waterfall. However, whether you get to see them depends on the weather. Currently, Maran Yunpu Garden is only open to guests staying at its own homestay and is not open to the public. The garden's viewing platform offers a 360-degree view of the sea of clouds, and guests can enjoy Wujie coffee, high mountain oolong tea, and black tea, as well as a buffet breakfast. The garden is adorned with 20,000 cherry blossom trees, along with plum blossoms, peach blossoms, canna lilies, and various other flowers and succulents that I can't name, all amidst the tea plantations. This time, the fog was too strong, and we could only barely see the sea of clouds and the cloud waterfall. We didn't get to see the sunrise, but the spectacular flower sea, sea of clouds, and lush green tea plantations healed our wounded souls!

#2月好地方2025 Wujie Yitiantian is located on Wuba Highway. Wuba Highway is not a real highway, but the riverbed of Zhuoshui River from Wujie to Bakulas. Due to the accumulation of silt and gravel, the river channel has become a paradise for bicycles, off-road motorcycles and jeeps. Bikers take the abbreviation of the two places and call it "Wuba Highway", which makes people mistakenly think that this is an ordinary highway. The Wuba Highway runs from the Wujie Suspension Bridge to the riverbed. The river channel is wide and flat, the stream water is clear and cold, and the scenery on both sides is charming. It can be said to be the most beautiful highway. Due to the construction work, the natural painting "Red River" is no longer available, which makes me sigh with regret! We took the Delica of the B&B and drove through the river valley. There were many huge rocks in the valley. Some of the rocks were shaped like fish with their mouths open and orangutans lying on their sides, which were quite eye-catching. The Line of Sky is a thin canyon with mountain walls on both sides towering into the sky, right at the confluence of Liqi River, a tributary of Zhuoshui River. The water route to Yitiantian is basically smooth and easy to walk on. It is currently the dry season, so you only need a pair of creek trekking shoes. There is no shade along the way, so be prepared for sun protection.

#February2025 Wujie, the most beautiful secret place in Nantou, is the northernmost tribe of the Bunun people. The tribe is adjacent to the Atayal people. In the early days, the two tribes often fought each other for hunting areas. After a ceasefire, the boundary was divided and named Wujie. The Wujie Tribe attractions are divided into two parts, north and south, with the Wujie Tribe market as the center. This time we visited the recommended popular attractions "Stream Tracing Line Sky", "Wujie Sunrise/Sea of ​​Clouds", "Hero's Slope", "Wujie Dam" and "Siyuan Suspension Bridge". The most impressive thing is the Milk Lake in Wujie; Due to the geographical structure of Wujie Dam, the water surface has a light milky color, and is known as the "Taiwanese version of Milk Lake." From the observation deck, you can have a panoramic view of the reservoir surrounded by mountains, which is a beautiful sight. In addition to three meals a day, the homestay also arranged aboriginal dances and singing, BBQ and millet wine in the evening, which made me feel guilty and ready to go back to the gym to lose weight.

#2月好去地方2025 Malan Travel is actually a B&B, ~ "Nantou Wujie Leisure B&B" was first founded by Malan and expanded to a leisure B&B for tourism. Rich totemic decorations can be seen everywhere, and you will be immersed in the pure Bunun tribal atmosphere. The rooms at Wujie Leisure B&B are warm and simple, with a massage bathtub and a bidet. Due to environmental protection, towels, bath and hair products, toothbrushes, etc. are not provided. There is also a tribal grocery store opposite where we stayed, so it is very convenient if we want to have a midnight snack at night! In the evening, we will arrange barbecue, karaoke, and the Bunun aborigines will lead us to dance and sing together. It will be a happy night.

#newyearnewtrip The hike to the hidden waterfall at Wujie Buluo (武界部落) is an adventure through lush forests, towering cliffs, and winding mountain paths. As you trek along the scenic trail, the sounds of nature surround you—chirping birds, rustling leaves, and the distant roar of cascading water. The journey may be challenging, but the reward is breathtaking: a majestic waterfall tumbling into a crystal-clear pool, perfect for a refreshing break. Along the way, you’ll pass indigenous Atayal landmarks and stunning valley views. This hike is a must for nature lovers seeking both beauty and tranquility in Taiwan’s highlands. 🌿💦

Wuye Waves, the secret base for watching the sunrise and sea of ​​clouds in Wujie Tribe, Nantou! It is recommended not to drive a car with a too low chassis. If you set off at 5 o'clock, you can just catch the sunrise. Even if there is no sunrise, there will still be a super beautiful sea of ​​clouds! If it rains, it is not recommended to go up the mountain, because it is very dark in the early morning, the road is very small, and only one car can pass. It will be very troublesome and scary to meet other cars. The tea terraces are also very beautiful after the clouds and mist have dispersed!

The Wujie Line of Sky is a natural landscape in the Wujie Tribe of Renai Township, Nantou County. Usually individual tourists will not go here because the road is very far and bumpy. You have to take a jeep to cross the gravel-filled road. But because of this, there are also many heavy motorcycle riders who come here to practice their riding skills. When you come to Wujie Xiantian during the dry season, you can walk in the cold shallow stream. You must wear slippers here, and you must pay attention to safety when walking in the river when there are large and small stones. The scenery along the line of sky is spectacular, with sunlight shining through the towering stone walls. The wonders of nature can be seen here at a glance, which is amazing. #naturalscape

Teacher Chen fulfilled his wish of walking along the Wujie Line of Sky and appreciating the red mangroves. The average age of the members on this trip was over 70 years old. They were all very brisk, lively and cute. They sang all the way in the car and had a great time in the evening. It was another perfect trip.

Wujie, the most beautiful secret place in Nantou, is the northernmost tribe of the Bunun people. It borders the Atayal people closely. In the early days, they often fought for hunting areas and the boundary was divided after a ceasefire and negotiation. The location is between Wujie Mountain and Ganzhuowan Mountain, and the high mountain valley and deep terrain through which the Zhuoshui River flows. Every morning, the rising water vapor meets the cold air from the mountains, and a dreamy waterfall-like sea of ​​clouds appears. It is also known as the "Hometown of Clouds".

We participated in the local tour of Wujie, and were taken to various scenic spots and Yixiantian. The scenery along the way was special. I felt that the car that took us was very powerful and could go up the mountains and down the sea. There were several aboriginal stalls outside Yixiantian. The most special one was the roasted pork. The whole grill was very large and eye-catching. You can also pick up stones from Yixiantian to take home as souvenirs. It was a very special experience🥰

Wujie, located at an altitude of 800 meters, is a beautiful secret place on the Internet and a tribe known as the "Hometown of Clouds". This time I signed up for a 2-day, 1-night package tour to the aboriginal tribe. The locals took me to see the vast natural wonders, experience local delicacies with them, make bamboo tube rice, drink their homemade millet wine, indulge myself in the repressed life, and return to the most simple and natural life. The narrow gap between two mountains allows you to see the beauty of the space between them. We walk across the gravel road and the stream. Our tour guide also taught us how to identify the local dragon-patterned stones. He joked that if we found a huge dragon-patterned stone, it might be worth tens of millions. Of course, what we found were all mini nail versions. This kind of stone that is made of stone, jade and metal is really rare. However, the stones on the road also have many beautiful patterns. After taking pictures, we don’t take them away. What we take away are only beautiful photos and sweet memories. I have seen in the news that many people travel here by car. I would recommend that you take a trip to the tribal homestay, because the streams and paths here can change at any time due to the weather, and it is very dangerous if you are unfamiliar with the place. The locals’ cars are all modified, and they have been living in the mountains since childhood, so it is much safer. The last time we went to Yitiantian, it was drizzling on the way back. The tour guide looked at the sky and urged us to get on the car and return. I didn't take it seriously at first, but less than three minutes after getting on the car, it started to rain heavily. The gravel road we had come from suddenly had 10 centimeters of water. The tour guide said that if it was any later, the tide would rise and become a creek, and most cars would be scrapped if they drove over here. It sounds a bit scary, but I'm glad I was traveling with a tour group and didn't drive the car over here😂 There are many B&Bs that are responsible for the journey here. You can choose a B&B you like and just ask the price of the package tour. I bought it at the travel fair, but after talking with the B&B owner, they could also take it themselves. The price is the same, and the price changes with time. At that time, I bought it for 5,000 per person, including all itineraries + food, accommodation, three meals + midnight snacks. Now it seems that the price has increased. You can do a little homework when you are going to find a B&B that suits you and come to Wujie to experience the hometown of clouds.
