Why Should I Go?
Home to Yangmingshan's Calla Lillies, Zhuzihu is a quaint local farming village hidden away in the mountains. Originally a lava-dammed lake created by the surrounding volcanoes, the area's unique geology became suitable for farming, terraced rice paddies early on, and other unique flora with time.
Besides the Calla Lilly, visitors can explore the neighbouring pine and bamboo forests, view cherry trees and the local Formosan Sweetgum, as well as browse the local farms and enjoy unique treats.
Zhuzihu is a great place to escape the city for the afternoon.
