We have stayed around alishan so that we can catch the sunrise the next morning! Is very hard to get the accommodation nearby the sunrise area. I actually stayed an hour drive away so i got to wakeup really early cant real if is 3-4am and reach the train station before 6or 630am for the first train. So we had some breakfast at the 711. Everything was bloated inside due to high altitude and jt was super cold at night 1deg? Once is near boarding time of the train as you can see theres a long line q~.Everyone is there for the sunrise.. alighted at Zhushan station and walk to the observatory! Because we really wanted the elevated view we hike another 10mins up to the highest point! Breathtaking i would say haha cause is so tedious to hike up but the view was phenomenal! Everyone was on standby w their pro camera up there . The sea of cloud was so beautiful, everyone got to try this! But because the train departs around 730 or 745am it was a mad rush after sunrise to run down to catch the traindown to another area. I would highly recommend Alishan sunrise because it is so beautiful and amazing! There’s another alternative way to see the sunrise is you are not staying overnight, thar would be the overnight buses but because the route can be quite bumpy its gona be a tough one! Pick your route carefully but the view is def worth it !!#sunrise #alishan #taiwan
