An Easy Tour of Wulai Aboriginal Village, Taiwan

Wulai is the home of Atayal tribe people, one of Taiwan's 14 aboriginal tribes, and where you can observe waterfalls, take a push-car ride, cable car, and learn about their customs. Wulai also has mineral hot springs that can be experienced in either a commercially operated resort (rent a hotel room for a few hours) or go to a public pool on the bank of the Nanshi River.


Taiwan is filled to the brim with tourists primarily from Mainland China, Korea, Japan, Malayasia and Singapore. Marine and I were a novelty as two of the few non-Asians seen over 14 days. The fun of Wulai lies in walking the small streets filled with food stalls and shops selling "traditional" Atayal goods along with everything but the kitchen sink. Go with the crowd flow, enjoy the scenery and ambiance...
