|A must-visit attraction in Alishan, Fenqihu.Includes popular sweet doughnuts from Fenqihu Old Street
Fenqihu, located in Zhonghe Village, Zhuqi Township, Chiayi County, is a mid-point stop on the way to Alishan and one of the stations along the Alishan Forest Railway. Known in the past for its nostalgic old street, railway bento, and square bamboo, Fenqihu gradually developed into a charming settlement filled with countless stories of the past. Many travelers stop here to rest, enjoy local delicacies, and shop for souvenirs—making it a must-visit spot on the journey to Alishan.
The legendary “Old Street's First Donut Shop” is said to be a must-try in Fenqihu. Made by professional bakers using Danish dough and hand-crafted techniques, these donuts are baked using a low-oil method instead of deep-frying. The result is a crispy yet fluffy texture with a rich milky aroma—not greasy at all and full of flavor.
The tour will also take you to the Fenqihu 912 Locomotive Garage, a county-designated historical site in Chiayi with over 100 years of history. Recently renovated with a NT$34 million investment, this space features Alishan-themed food and specialty selections from local brands. Combining local ingredients and railway café culture, it offers travelers a taste of regional identity and diverse travel routes.
|Chukou Visitor Center (Tsou Tribe Culture – Jhulu Tribal Park)
The Chukou Visitor Center is an important transit point for travelers visiting Alishan. In addition to taking a rest here, you can also visit the nearby 'Tsou Veoveoana Cultural and Creative Park' to experience the unique culture and characteristics of the Tsou Indigenous Tribe. Veoveoana means 'deer hunting ground.' It is said that in the past, the Tsou people used to chase the Formosan sambar deer to this location for hunting. Although traditional hunting practices are no longer carried out, in order to allow visitors to experience the tribal culture, a deer park and archery range have been specially designed. If you want to immerse yourself in the tribal culture, get close to small animals, you must not miss this!
※Please note that due to actual road conditions, arrival at the Jhulu Cultural and Creative Park may be delayed beyond business hours. Travelers are advised to plan accordingly.
