這部影片讓我莫名感動，尤其看到非常壯觀的高樹當你走在林間，感覺到非常的幸福。日出真的很難掌控，要看當天 天氣。但是沒關係 希望未來有一天能看到❤

Alishan looks so magical like scenes from Studio Ghibli's movies!
Oh my gosh, yes, exactly! That describes it perfectly. Thank you!
Indeed, some people say that Taiwan is like the world in Ghibli's
私は阿里山という名前は知っていました（地元に「阿里山」という名前のラーメン屋さんがあります）が、とても素晴らしい所ですね。阿里山に桜がたくさんあることを初めて知りました。とても美しいです。そして、たくさんの大木。阿里山の朝が寒いのも予想しませんでした。いつか台湾に行きたくなりました。素晴らしい動画をありがとうございました。
Lived here for 28 years, so it's nice to see someone view Taiwan with fresh eyes. All these videos are great! Thanks for coming & sharing!
Thank you for watching! You're very lucky to live in such a beautiful place. 😊
我想台灣是全世界少數可以在一個禮拜內安排登山、浮潛、夜店、傳統文化塞滿每天計畫的地方。
就像是一桌小菜任你選，每個人都可以找到自己喜歡的菜。😊
Yes!! So true!
👍🇹🇼Great BG music 🎶 🎼 😀👍Beautiful Taiwan 🇹🇼 Love Taiwan 🇹🇼!
My daughter just moved to Taiwan for a few years before grad school and I am LOVING this content.
Thank you so much!! She's very lucky to be in such an incredible and diverse country. 😊
歡迎妳們來到台灣 台灣就是一個美麗的寶島 全島有268座超過3000米的高山 有機會就去探訪吧
❤️❤️
台灣漂亮的地方很多 如溪頭杉林溪 合歡山 清境農場 阿里山奮起湖 梨山 南橫 墾丁 花東海線山線 六十石山 太麻里金針山 知本溫泉 蘭嶼 綠島 澎湖 中橫太魯閣 ....都值得花點時間去走走看看
Thats a nice park. Soon Neuralink enables every viewer to smell flowers telepathically just by watching video.
😲😲
如果你們想要欣賞日出 建議夏天去比較適合 約6~10月 我以前高中畢業旅行就是去阿里山 由於是大約6月份去的 晚上還跟同學們一起去夜遊 夜晚的星空因為沒有光害跟污染 滿天的星星非常漂亮 而且完全不會感覺寒冷 早上看日出也非常的完美 沒有親眼感受過日出的人無法理解那種感動 令我印象深刻
I would like to recommend you to go to Mugu Muyu (慕谷慕魚), closed for seven years, 2023 Taiwan has opened it again, it is a beautiful secret place in Taiwan Hualien~~you need to apply for a mountain pass.
Taiwan have 260 high mountains over 3000 meters, and more than 5000 waterfalls, with ever-changing landscapes. People from all over the world are welcome to explore!
It is recommended to search for related videos with (Mugu Muyu)
Thank you!!
When I was a teenager, my friends and I ventured into another Taiwan forest resembling Alishan. My friend shouted loudly into the forest, 'Asidaka, where are you?' (she was joking). Asidaka is the male protagonist from the Studio Ghibli film 'Princess Mononoke， ，a story about protecting forest. I saw someone mention in a comment that the trees in Alishan resemble those from Ghibli films, reminded me of this memory."
That's fantastic! Thank you for sharing with us. 😊😊
Asidaka! I never thought Ashidaka would live in Mt. Ali. I thought he would live with Princess Mononoke near the Lake Daruparingi (大鬼湖), the holy lake of indigenous tribe Rukai. The lake is hidden inside the deep forest in the mountains of south Taiwan. We just leave them to happily live together ever and after inside the deep mountains.
Tank you love Taiwan阿里山之美與本國櫻花及檜木林相互輝映，紡織成景❤
Looks like a beautiful place
It's amazing! 😁
Wow wow wow! Great photography, amazing choice of music! Love your crispy commentary style. Your channel is my favorite so far among all the youtubers visiting and covering Taiwan recently.
Thank you so much! That really means a lot. 😊🙏🏻
I love the soundtrack in the film.
Very match.
Thank you!! We really like the music we chose for this one, too. 😁 😁
I am so glad you were able to see Taiwan outside of Taipei. Alpine Taiwan is very unique and special. I wish more tourists could see the East Coast and do a hiking trip to appreciate how special it is to have once glacial peaks on a tropical island.
We've come to believe that Taiwan truly has something for everyone!
Thanks for the beautiful clip! You guys look awesome ❤
Thank you! 😁
I was there in Alishan last Dec 2023 for 3D2N and it was raining all day. We toured Alishan in our raincoats and umbrellas. There were so many steps we took and at the end of it, my fitness app on my phone showed we climb 52 storeys......in the rain 🤣The 3rd day, the entire mountain got really foggy that visibility was really poor, there was nothing we could do and my plan to eat at an aboriginal restaurant and trekking the tea gardens just fell throught the cracks. So we decided to drive to our next destination at the southern most tip of Taiwan and guess what... The rain didn't stop and the winds there were so strong that it almost blew us away.... so I wondered should I have lived with the fog or the wind... 🤣😅
Although Alishan is famous for its sunrise, there are no more than 20 days in a year where you can see a perfect sunrise
What?! We feel a lot better about our experience now! Thanks!
Can you elaborate on “perfect sunrise”? What does that mean? Like no clouds no mist at all?
Welcome to Taiwan for tourism, I wish you a pleasant journey.
檜木的味道
Alishan produces great high-mountain tea. I love all of Taiwan - every aspect of it is magical. I hope Hollywood discovers it great scenery. Location scouts - please visit Taiwan.
Completely agreed - Alishan would make a fantastic set for so many things!
I was expecting more Cherry Blossom trees at the park in Alishan, though. Thank you for sharing!😊
This was also my fave area in all of the places we've visited ng Taiwan. So magical! Will definitely go back and stay there.
You went to Sun Moon lake right? In Ita Thao when you ride the cable car, you'll be able to go to the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village and you'll be able to see tons of cherry blossoms too. Our target was to visit all the sites with cherry blossoms in Taiwan and we were not disappointed.
Yes! When we were in Sun Moon Lake, the cable car was not running. 😞 It's always good to have a reason to return!
Stunning and epic video ! Thank you.
Oh gosh, thank you very much!! 😊😁🙏🏻
您把阿里山拍得好美…😃😃👍💝💖🎊🎉
太感謝了！😊❤️
I love your videos. This one in particular motivated me to plan my next visit to Alishan. Than you!
Fantastic! Have a wonderful time!
當您們漫遊在阿里山的林間小道，鏡頭中搭配文人筆下的陳述，更襯托出阿里山唯美的靈魂。⋯❤️💐
❤️❤️
so glad to have you here in Taiwan to have such a deep explore the pretty and those touching moment ! Tawan has the highest healing enegy in the whole world，shch as Da-An forest park，Nan-Kan National park。。。。 hope you have a great time in Taiwan and thanks again ! love u~😘🌹
Thank you very much! Alishan was so beautiful. ❤️
Really beautiful I enjoyed watching your video.
I was also in Alishan from 21st to 23rd December 2023 but sometimes the weather is good sometimes bad but I love the trees and all the beautiful scenery.
I am originally from Nepal and I am a mountaineer. In Nepal. But I lived in New York for 20 years and then I moved here. Taiwan 2017. Taiwan is really beautiful and the people are very nice. Have you guys been to Penghu Ireland? Please visit here if you haven't been. It is a very beautiful place. I have been seven years this place, I live here now , 🙏🏻🙏🏻🍀🍀❤❤
We haven't been to Penghu Island yet but it's definitely on our list! We'd love to go there. 😊
Welcome to Taiwan
Thank you! 🎉
太棒了 非常專業 對 阿里山 的美詳細攝影介紹 有助台灣旅遊推廣 謝謝.
😊🙏🏻
We're travel vloggers like you and found you guys on r/UA-cam... We like your style because it's a little like ours. Btw subscribers here. We're still evolving... See ya around the UA-cam mountain as we all do our best to climb it!
Chuck and Lori
Thank you!
@@TalesFromOurPocket it's a crowded sandbox that we play in but we hope the more cinematic vloggers will come together as a community to grow together. Hope to see you around!
謝謝你們拍攝這影片..... 沒想到 ~阿里山已種植這麼多櫻花了...
🤗🤗
I love your work, including the background music. Well done!
Thank you so much!! ♥️
Very nice guides to introduce Ali Mt, the national park, with elegant English descriptions. Thanks a lot.
Thank you! 🙏🏻😊
You guys are a great pair! This is the most beautiful Alishan vlog I have ever seen! Thank you so much for sharing! Bless you!
Actually, it's not only in Alishan that you can see beautiful sunrise. You can see sea of clouds and sunset at eryanping trail and the accommodation I stayed at could see sunset and sea of clouds which was mesmerizing. We saw the clouds enveloped the huge mountain in front of us, rushed up and engulfed us and then the next minute, the clouds went away.
拍攝的真是完美很棒祝福你們旅途愉快。
Loved this video so much! We need to go! I loved the way you shared the sights, sounds, and smells with us so we could more closely experience it with you. The music was perfect! The stump art was beautiful too! Green licorice 🤣🤣 I can’t unsee it!
The green licorice was so random, but like you, once I saw it, I couldn't unsee it! 😂😂 This is one of my favorite videos we've done so far. Such a stunning setting!
You are great photographer,every pictures are so beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊😊
謝謝您的駐足與評價 希望在台期間能給妳們更多正面的能量
寧靜幽閒、優雅平靜
一如既往的精彩！😊
謝謝你！！😊
阿里山觀日出我覺得還好，最漂亮的是晚上的星空，以前當軍官時不小心誤在山上露營，半夜起來嚇一跳，抬頭看到滿天的星光好像隨手可摘那真的很美
awesome
Alishan is definitely one of the best places to visit in Taiwan. Stairs are necessary in these mountains for easy access otherwise it would be too slippery with the amount of rains we have here.
I can definitely see how the mountain would be dangerous in the rain, without the stairs!
If you guys are in Vancouver area, you are welcome to visit our cherry blossom festival too 😍
Glad you survived the fall. Holy crap…
"Man down!" 😂😂 I bet cherry blossoms in Vancouver are beautiful. Are they really popular??
Your video was so fun to watch! Thank you for all your advice, super helpful as we're planning to go to Taiwan this March!
We're jealous!! Taiwan was an incredible adventure and Alishan was beautiful. I hope you see the sunrise, if that's what you're after! 😊
Fantastic video, hi friends I wish I could meet you there.
Thank you!
Hi, Bill and Heather, your Alisan YT piece majestically popped into my youtub world. I like your authentical style of videologging very much. So much so that Alisan becomes my most favorate place to visit even after visiting more than half a dozen times! Thanks! J
I'm so glad you liked the video! I'm jealous that you've been able to visit Alishan so often. It was beautiful!!
welcome to taiwan !!
Thank you! 😁
很美的阿里山，很好聽的音樂，很棒的敘述！
Shito es mi lugar favorito en Taiwan.
¡Es hermoso!
enjoy your travels
I like the music you use for this video.
The professional expression with your beautiful English is just fascinating.
I am a viewer living in Taipei, being reminded that I am lucky to be part of this beautiful island.
You are very lucky, indeed!
花美,人也美😀
其實現在這些森林，不是原本百年前那個有名的阿里山森林。原來的森林已經被砍伐了，現在的森林是最近幾十年種植的。
20:56 那幾株巨大的樹才是屬於原本森林的樹，但他們不是因為古老巨大而被保留下來，他們只是因為做為種子來源而被保留。
因為以前那有名的森林原本有400,000棵巨大的樹，它們樹幹平均直徑是3m、平均年齡超過1000歲，是世界奇景，但幾乎全部被砍掉了。
留下來的樹根也幾乎都被挖走了，因為這種木材很香很貴，影片中殘留的巨大樹根，是因為充滿孔洞沒有經濟價值才留在那。
🌳❤️
哇！你好棒！怎了解那麼多！真是這樣的？好可惜！怎麼會這樣？被誰砍走那麼多呀！應嚴懲！神木不是應受政府單位保護的嗎？發生這樣的事真可悲！好心痛！😢

Thank you very much! 😊 😊
謝謝分享;平安喜樂,順心如意!
謝謝分享；平安喜樂，順心如意。
台東，花蓮，太魯閣的風景一定也讓你們驚艷
Thanks for sharing Taiwan's beautiful nature.
fantastic
Super✌
Awesome!👏👏👏
Thanks! 😃
好棒的影片 謝謝分享 剛訂閱了❤
阿里山每次上山都有不同驚喜
Maybe next time Alishan will surprise us with a proper sunrise view. 😂 😂
歡迎來阿里山❤❤
永遠記得散步在森林裏，陽光從縫隙中灑落在地面鐵軌上，好美
Hope you all have fun and happy here
Good vedeo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks!! 😁😁
I like you guys🥰🥰🥰
Thank you! We like you, too. 😁
Really amazing.
It was so beautiful there! 😊
我也好懷念櫻花季的阿里山，雖然人很多
🌸🌸🌸
If you like natural beautiful scenery...Welcome to Taiwan...
拍攝很厲害👍好美
❤️❤️
哇！好美
感謝您！介紹台灣的美，台灣歡迎您。
Hello, thank you for the video! What time did you visit Alishan? I was there in March 😊
Very end of March! 😊
推薦您們去南投合歡山 您們也會很喜歡的～
5:53 This one seems to be a rhododendron... hmm might be a Taiwan Rhododendron I'm not so sure ;p
6:24 lol 6:38 oops, hope you are alright @@;
7:28 hmm... I'm not sure if it is a Steere's liocichla who is calling but I think it is a Taiwan Wren Babbler singing at 7:51
9:26 I guess it is Phytoncide that you are feeing at this moment
Oh my gosh!! Are you are a bird expert?! That's amazing! You're right - that one bush might have been a rhododendron. And this is our favorite Taiwan video to make so far - we love how it turned out and are glad you enjoyed it! 😊😊
@@TalesFromOurPocket nah lol I just love birds but thank you xD and thank you for the amazing vid as well
TAIWAN ALISHAN NATIONAL FOREST RECREATION AREA👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏
Yesssss 🎉🎉🎉
When cherry blossoms occupied a vast expanse or line an entire road like what I saw in Japan and China, which is absolutely breathtaking. even more so with drone shots from above capturing the entire region. "Thin island" like Japan, NZ and Taiwan are easier to cover more places on its entire length from North to South though, compared to vast ones like China and the USA.
想看雲海嗎？轉往奮起湖的道路，雲海就在路旁，非常壯觀。
5:55 這應該是台灣高山杜鵑，或是阿里山杜鵑，很幸運的這兩種杜鵑都是台灣特有種，六月下旬才輪到它進入花期，也別有一番景緻。
阿里山接近上帝的領域的高山⛰️ ！ God bless you amen 🙏🏼
Nice. May I know when is the best time to visit this place for Cherry Blossom?
Thanks for sharing. I will be going there in a few weeks. I am wondering if your husband fell, due to fumbling around with the camera, looking around, and not paying attention to where he was going. Plus, it being slippery. Please be careful out there.
Haha, thanks!! He was walking backwards while filming and he thought he knew where the step was. Instead he tripped over it (but was fine!). 😁 Thanks!!
Which season/month you are there? April? Thx
Hi Heather and Bill. This was a great video which further cemented my desire to visit Taiwan. Thank you!
Just a question though. It appears it was a bit cold when you both visited. Wondering that in which month did you people visit?
I'm planning for January and a bit apprehensive about whether the winters would diminish the experience.
Okay cool just saw your response to another comment and now I know you went in March. Cool 😊
I am planning a trip to Alishan. Love cherry blossom. I am curious which month did you visit there ?
Very end of March / early April. The exact timing of the blossoms can vary by year! 😊
台灣歡迎您😊
🇹🇼 ❤️
No I'm not into the cold. 🥶 🥶
We were so surprised!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉good vedeo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
可能無法想像，阿里山森林原本的樹木都比那棵大樹還要高大，經過50年所有原生樹都被砍伐殆盡，現在看到的都是新種植的！
很難想像如果所有的樹都那麼大，森林會是什麼樣子！😲😲
Planning on my second Japan/Taiwan trip this fall (last time solo, this time with my partner) and your vlogs have been helpful! Leaning towards doing this area should the Taroko Gorge still be closed. You're also making me consider Malaysia next year, even though I know I will suffer from the heat!
Do you think you can see enough of Alishan Park as a day trip? Thinking of renting a car, spending a night in Shizhuo and catching the sunset there instead, and then visiting Alishan the next day. No ride in a cool train in the dark but otherwise seems doable.
Oh gosh, thank you so much!! Alishan is a great substitute for Taroko - we both enjoyed our forest walks there as much as Taroko (possibly even more than Taroko!).
We stayed in Shizhuo after we visited Alishan. I do think Alishan can be done in a day trip from there; I'd just plan on getting an early start so you have as much time as possible. Given how dodgy the sunrise can be, it's a gamble to take that early morning train anyhow. 😂 (one of us would def try again but the other would need some coaxing!) 😁
We're glad you've found our videos helpful and inspiring - that truly means a lot to us. ✈ ❤️🙏
When was this? Im thinking of going to taiwan on april 4-10. But wanna know if theres a cherry blossom
