The low-key B&B we stayed in is located at the foot of Liushishi Mountain, so the purpose of our trip is to go to Liushishi Mountain in Fuli, Hualien to see the sea of daylily flowers full of yellow chrysanthemums. Therefore, it is very convenient to stay in a low-key homestay. We drove up the mountain early in the morning to see the golden needle flower sea.
Introduction to Sixty Stone Mountain
Liushishi Mountain is located on the coastal mountain range at an altitude of about 800 meters on the east side of Zhutian Village, Fuli Township, the southernmost tip of Hualien County. The slope is steep but the top is gentle and wide.
Why is it called Sixty Stone Mountain? From the appearance, during the Japanese occupation period, this mountainous area was originally a dense camphor forest, which was cut down for camphor refining. It turned out that 60 huge stones were scattered on the open hillside. Because of the scattered huge stones on the top of the mountain, it was named Liushishi (shi) mountain. There is also another saying that in the era of Japanese occupation, the rice harvest of a paddy field in general was only about 40 to 50 shi, but the paddy fields in this area could produce 60 shi of rice per jia, so it was called Liushi shi (Liu Shishi) dan) mountain.
Decades ago, Liushishishan was a barren mountain with no development. After the August 7th typhoon in 1959, due to the severe damage to the western coastal area, some residents of Yunlin Xiluo area moved here to develop. Then why did Sixty Stone Mountain become the hometown of daylilies? After planting rice for a period of time, the local residents found that the topography and climate of this place were more suitable for planting golden needles, so they slowly began to plant golden needles. Therefore, Liushishi Mountain in Fuli Township is full of golden flowers every August and September. In recent years, every flower season has attracted many tourists to worship.
Walking in the beautiful terraced fields at the foot of Liushishi Mountain in Fuli, Hualien in the early morning
I got up at 6 o'clock today to freshen up, and I was going to go to the terraced fields under the hotel at 6:30 o'clock. Then come back for breakfast at 7:30.
The rice in Fuli, Hualien is very famous, and it has the reputation of eastern rice warehouse. The terraced green paddy fields are surrounded by mountains. In the morning, the mountains are light and haze, coupled with the blue sky, has an ethereal mood like a fairyland. The terraced field scenery here has appeared in the film of seeing Taiwan.
Take a walk in the field path under Liushishi Mountain in the morning and enjoy the leisure time in the morning.
Healthy and nutritious breakfast in a low-key homestay
When breakfast time is at CHECK-IN, you must make an appointment with the boss and eat on time. Because breakfast takes two hours to make, breakfast that is too early is not accepted. Breakfast is a gift and is included in the price.
Breakfast time: AM07:30 (only during flowering season), AM08:00, AM08:30, AM09:00. Because we want to stagger the crowds and go up the mountain early to see the golden needle flower sea, we choose to have dinner at 7:30.
The breakfast at the homestay is European-style bread made by the owner himself. It is chewy and has a rich taste of dried fruit. These breads are also available for takeaway and are very popular. There are also smoked bacon, scrambled eggs, lettuce salad, and fruit for breakfast, which are healthy and healthy. The proprietress used to be the manager of a well-known coffee shop, so you can also have a cup of low-flavored coffee. Start your day with this low-key breakfast.
Breakfast is served in the living room (living room).
When you walk around Huadong, you must bring mosquito repellent products, and there are many mosquitoes on the mountain. The boss provides free natural citronella mosquito repellent cream and essential oils for the guests to use. After trying it out, I think the effect is not bad, so before leaving I also bought a small jar of mosquito repellent cream to bring with me. NT$200
The low-key B&B is not limited to the range of our accommodation. Its hinterland is quite wide. There is a star viewing square, the best place to watch the stars at night, no light pollution, lotus pond, lotus pond, orchard, vegetable garden, cherry blossom area , wild ginger, rhododendron, hibiscus, etc. This is also a good place to watch fireflies.
The low-key homestay Weixiu bar provides enzyme sparkling drinks, fruit popsicles, fried foods, and dried fruits. All of the above are self-made by the homestay owner, so some of them have discounts. In addition, there are local craft beers in Yuli~Dan Shiyou Ke Nai, and other popular local beers, which can be purchased in the living room by coin.
Before leaving, take another look at the scenery at the foot of Liushishi Mountain. There will be a period after talking to the low-key homestay.
Liushishishan is the hometown of daylilies
Liushishi Mountain in Fuli, Hualien, Chike Mountain in Yuli, Hualien, and Golden Needle Mountain in Taimali, Taitung are the three major golden needle cultivation areas in Taiwan. During the season when golden needles bloom in July, August and September every year, the mountains are covered with barrel yellow and green Interspersed among them, Liushishi Mountain suddenly becomes a beautiful and rich canvas. Tourists can also climb up to the top of Liushishi Mountain to overlook the beauty of the fields in Huadong Rift Valley and Chishang Township in Taitung. When the weather is good, you can also see the peaks of Yushan Mountain.
During the lily flower season, Liushishi Mountain has traffic control. It does not control the number of vehicles, but only controls the direction of going up and down the mountain. It maintains a single lane for traffic. Because the road on the mountain is not spacious, it can avoid two-way traffic jams. The time of daily control It starts at 8:00 am and ends at 5:00 pm.
The owner of the B&B suggested that we can go all the way to the Wangyou Pavilion, the highest point, because there are very few parking spaces in the Wangyou Pavilion, and it takes a long time to wait in line. It takes a long time for a car to leave before putting down a car. go in. The scenery of Wangyou Pavilion can resist all the beauty of Liushishi Mountain.
Daylily is really a yellow flower with a personality. The flower will bloom after sunrise, and it will wither after blooming for a day. Moreover, the flowering daylily is not edible. If you eat too much colchicine, daylily will cause diarrhea. Under the management of the Hualien County Government, the daylily flower fields in Liushishishan are planned to be partly for tourists to visit and take pictures, and partly for farmers to harvest and sell. This can increase the incentive for foreign tourists to visit here. It can also drive local economic prosperity.
Step into the golden flower sea of Liushishi Mountain Step into the intoxicating daylily world covered with mountains
When we drove up Liushishi Mountain and saw the first photo spot, we still couldn't help but stopped the car to take pictures, because we really felt that the daylilies blooming all over the hillside were so beautiful.
The King of Popularity in Liushishishan~Huanghuating
Huanghua Pavilion is the largest and most accessible scenic spot in Liushishishan Scenic Area. It also has the most parking spaces, which is quite convenient. The field of vision here is very wide, and you can overlook or look up at the daylily field. Huanghua Pavilion is one of the most beautiful scenic spots in Liushishi Mountain. It is located on the front road and has the largest parking lot. Almost most tourists will stop here, so it is the most popular place in Liushishi Mountain.
The mullet pond in Liushishi Mountain is a good place to take pictures of the reflection of the blue sky and white clouds
The very popular large pool in front of the Mulberry Villa, because tourists trampled on the flowers and plants at will, the farmhouse pulled up the blockade and refused to approach it, so it was impossible to take pictures of the signature picture of the reflection of the blue sky and white clouds. But there are still some tourists sneaking in to shoot.
The painting of "Sleeping Little Girl" left by French street artist Mr. Qi on Liushishishan
This time I still missed one scenic spot, which is the painting of "Sleeping Little Girl" left by the French street artist Mr. Qi on Liushishi Mountain. Because "Sleeping Little Girl" is painted on the water tower next to Yunmin No. 9, Zhutian Village, 25th Neighborhood, Fuli Township, Hualien, because the back is facing the painting when driving up the mountain, so it is easy to miss it!
French street artist Julien Malland Seth was invited by Nipsea Group's "Color for Love" event to come to Taiwan for the first time. He spent two weeks visiting three primary schools in Hsinchu, Taitung and Hualien to paint, because he fell in love with Hualien 60 The beauty of the sea of daylily flowers in Shishan Mountain, he left this painting "Sleeping Little Girl" on the wall of the water tower in Liushishi Mountain. What he wants to express is that in the beauty of daylily flower season, you will definitely forget it Worry, sleep peacefully.
We headed all the way to Wangyou Pavilion, the highest point of Liushishi Mountain. Due to the different routes for going up the mountain and going down the mountain, during the flower season control time, you can only go forward and not go back, so as to avoid dangerous collisions. Since there are many vehicles entering the Wangyou Pavilion ahead, there will be red lights on the way to control the entry of vehicles to prevent too many vehicles from blocking the road to Wangyou Pavilion.
We are waiting in line to go up to the parking lot of 964 Inn, to go to Wangyou Pavilion.
This is the slope road to the 964 post, which is very steep. Only one car can pass.
Sixty Stone Mountain, which resembles the beautiful scenery of Switzerland ~ Little Switzerland Scenic Area
While waiting to go up to the Wangyou Pavilion, we used the time to take pictures of the beautiful scenery of the Little Switzerland scenic spot on the side of the road.
Liushishishan is also known as Taiwan’s Little Switzerland. This little Swiss scenic spot is also a good place to enjoy the beauty of daylily flowers in Liushishishan. The continuous green carpet is smoothly covered on this mountain, with the sea of daylilies and the lush green pastoral scenery, is it like being in Switzerland?
In the 964 post station, you can taste all kinds of dishes of daylilies
The 964 post station, located at the highest point of Liushishi Mountain, is named 964 post station because it is located at an altitude of 964 meters. It has a beautiful landscape, overlooking the scenery of the small Swiss scenic spot, and delicious daylily dishes. We tried it Daylily water, daylily bamboo shoot soup, fried daylily and roselle iced tea. There are also self-made and self-marketed dried daylilies here, which are safe and reliable in quality. A pack of 100 grams costs NT$150.
From the 964 post station to the direction of Wangyou Pavilion, you have to go up a short flight of stairs.
The highest point of Liushishi Mountain ~ Wangyou Pavilion has the most beautiful angle and can be called the vision of God
The view from the Wangyou Pavilion at the highest point is definitely the most beautiful angle of Liushishi Mountain. You can clearly see the top view of the entire Liushishi Mountain, which can be called God's vision. Because the parking space in this place is not easy to wait during the flower season, it is recommended to park outside and then walk there during the flower season. Don’t give up because the distance is inconvenient.
Wangyou Pavilion is the final station of Liushishishan Park, and it can be reached in less than one minute by going up the steps next to the 964 Post Inn.
