Historical Insights

Taipingshan stands at an elevation of 1,950 meters and is a legendary chapter in Taiwan’s forestry history. The Japanese began logging operations here in 1915, later continued by the Nationalist government, making it Taiwan’s largest timber field. In 1983, it transformed into a National Forest Recreation Area, preserving relics like the Jianqing Rail Trail and the iconic Bong Bong Train.

Living Museum

Today, Taipingshan remains a living museum with vintage cableways, forest tracks, and timber yard machinery. Visitors can ride the Bong Bong Train to explore a world of forest phytoncides or stroll along the misty shores of Cueifong Lake to listen to nature’s symphony.
