Mount Jiuhua Kshitigarbha Temple

Also referred to as the Cypress Forest Life Village, the village consists of 28 wooden Japanese-style dormitories as well as the Alishan Forest Club, director's official residence, guest house, public bathhouse, etc.

The tower exterior designed was inspired by a giant sacred tree in Alishan. The brown aluminum pattern mimics the wood grain of the tree and the center is left with a 40-m-high empty space that mimics the crack in the center of that giant sacred tree. The interior bronze sculpture is inspired by the "Sun-Shooting" legend of Taiwanese aborigines. This bronze-made sculpture is 24 meters tall and 3 meters wide.

A museum of local history within the main park in the city. There is a limited amount of material in English, so it may not be as engaging for non-Mandarin speakers.
