Hi!! We are still in Alishan Mountains in the Alishan Township in Chiayi County, Taiwan. It is located at Alishan National Scenic Park
We are currently walking along the walking trails in the old forest; Giant Tree Trail. If you have missed out my earlier posting, please do visit them and we will ‘e-wait’ for you till you catch up. No rush. =)
Along the trail we came about a wooden shed which is the Alishan Museum.
An old trunk displayed in the museum. It shows how old these Formosan red cypress trees are. Some are these tree are 2000 to 3000 years old!!! The oldest tree; “Alishan Sacred Tree” here was 3,000 years old by it felled by heavy rainstorms in 1997.
Nearby is the Stele of Merit,
Lots of really old red Cypress trees.
Just look at the size of the trunk……. Thousand Year Cypress
A shot from bottom up….
More pictures for you all to enjoy….
