－Itinerary introduction－

[Upbound route] Chiayi Station - Zhanghorliao Station - Liyuanliao Station - Fenchihu Station

Zhanghorliao Station (guide and enjoy Caozai Kueh)
The place got its name from the production of camphor trees and camphor oil at that time. During the Japanese colonial period, it was an important export site of Taiwan camphor. Today, there is only a row of camphor trees next to the railway for tourists to relive the grand occasion of the Taiwan camphor kingdom. This station has a good view and outlook. In front of the station, you can see Independence Mountain, Tanghu Mountain, Golden Lion Mountain and Dakeng Mountain. Zhanghorliao Station is a turn-back station, where the train must reverse to the left track to enter the station, so the station track is an X-shaped turn-back line. -

Liyuanliao Station (beautiful photos taken)
Famous for the Firefly River Railway, there is a "Miharu Terrace" built during the Japanese occupation near the station, with a wide view. In the past, this area was rich in bamboo shoots, which were made into dried bamboo shoots and exported to Japan. Today, there are mostly orchards, bamboo forests and tea gardens in the surrounding area. After 1985, Liyuanliao Station was changed to a greeting station.

Fenchihu Station (Enjoy Bento & Aiyu at Fenchihu Hotel)
Fenqihu Station is the largest rest station on the main line of the Alishan Small Train, and the Fenqihu settlement where the station is located has also developed into a popular tourist attraction. Fenchihu Station was an important station for transporting goods, carrying passengers, and switching trains in the past. It not only has intertwined and complicated railway tracks and large garages, but also has a crowd of people here, and has developed a unique railway bento culture. A stop not to be missed. It is rare to come to this place.

The owner, now in his 70s, still serves tourists and local residents at Jiaoliping Station. The grocery store sells some biscuits, Beverages, tobacco, alcohol, umbrellas, etc., and earlier, poultry feed and agricultural tools were sold, and it also served as a postal agency more than 50 years ago to deliver letters to residents.

Takezaki Station (guided tour)
Zhuqi, formerly known as "Zhutouzaki", is the last station on the flat section of the Alishan Forestry Railway, and it is also the starting point for climbing the railway. This station was built in about 1910, and was rebuilt in 1952. It has become what it is today. Strong Japanese flavor. In the era of steam trains, water and coal had to be added here first, and the 18-ton flat locomotive was replaced with a 28-ton mountain-climbing locomotive to facilitate the climbing journey later. Another feature of Zhuqi Station is the "triangular line". At the beginning of its opening to traffic in 1912, Erwanping and Zhuqi were the end and starting stations of the mountain climbing section, so the triangular line was needed to assist locomotives to turn around.

Alishan train timetable; from 3/20, North Gate Station has been undergoing historic renovation works and trains will be suspended. Therefore, the boarding and alighting locations are limited to Chiayi Station. Sorry for any inconvenience caused!
