It really deserves the title of being the highest Western restaurant in Taiwan!! The steaks and lamb chops that my family likes a lot. Because they are warm-bodied meats, their tenderness and freshness cannot be compared to frozen or processed meats. !! Every time I go up to the mountain to try it, paired with the hot food and lettuce and fruit plate prepared by the restaurant, the quiet and clean overall environment really makes people want to linger!!

"Dian" Pei Liang talks about Qingjing - looking back at a foreign land Entering the 21st century, Taiwanese society continues to change, and the mountains of Cingjing in Nantou have always been populated by ethnic minorities from China's southwest border. This group of people who have been forgotten but have never forgotten their roots are working hard to live a guerrilla life in an era of suffering and change. The dignity and strong vitality of the team and ethnic minorities! Looking back on the past, the color of the mainland changed in the 38th year of the Republic of China. Many people fled to the border of Yunnan, Burma, Thailand and Laos to join the Yunnan People's Anti-Communist and National Salvation Army to fight against the Communist army. Under the leadership of General Li Mi, General Li Guohui, General Zhu Xinyi, General Duan Xiwen, Under the command of General Liu Yuanlin, he repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats and led troops across the border to attack Yunnan and Burma several times. In October of the 49th year of the Republic of China, they fought with the Communist Army in Myanmar. Both sides suffered heavy casualties. In the 50th year of the Republic of China, they were ordered to retreat. Seventy-seven guerrillas, together with 253 family members, returned to Taiwan on March 24th. East, arrived at Chenggong Ridge the next day, and after a hundred days of training, went to Nantou Cingjing Farm (formerly known as Jianqing).

These immigrants are now little-known border ethnic minorities, collectively called Yimin (compatriots): 1. Dai people: They like to eat raw food and are very particular about rice food.

They are good at building terraces and high mountain water canals to irrigate farmland. They maintain the habit of naming father and son together. 5.

They have no written language and often use food to convey messages. 6. The Wei family (Yao ethnic group): They work hard and never eat too much every meal, so it is not uncommon for the family to live a hundred years. 7.

When most people talk about Cingjing, they usually refer to the "Cingjing Farm" managed by the Retirement Club. In fact, the "Cingjing Farm" is only a part of the community. The "Greater Cingjing Community" includes Bowang New Village, Renai New Village, and Zhongxiao New Village. Seven major villages (about 200 households in total), including Daoban New Village, Rongguang New Village, Dingyuan New Village, Shouting New Village, as well as Cingjing Farm, National Taiwan University Meifeng Farm... and other areas, what we are talking about today are "big villages". "Cingjing" generally refers to the area from above Wushe (Wulipo) to Meifeng, mainly located in Renai Datong Village, Nantou County. Introduction to Bowang New Village In the 50th year of the Republic of China, foreign soldiers came to Taiwan, and most of them were resettled in Qingjing (formerly known as Jianqing) Farm. Starting from the virgin forest with no water or electricity, this group of guerrillas from the Yunnan-Myanmar border and the dependents of ethnic minorities had calloused hands and calloused feet. The perseverance and silent struggle here have created the beautiful miracle of Cingjing Farm! At that time, there were a total of 253 guerrillas and their dependents (collectively referred to as volunteers). In order to respect their elders, 33 of them were younger families of two, so they were resettled in Bowang New Village, Songgang, at a high altitude (2,044 meters) where the temperature was lower than ”. Today, Bowang New Village has a total of 33 households with a population of about one hundred. Most of the residents make a living by farming. Although their lives are poor, they are serious and hardworking! The Songgang Cultural and Historical Archives (Activity Center) in Bowang New Village displays many old photos. If you have the opportunity to meet local elders or residents and listen to them talk about old times, I believe you will gain a lot. As time goes by, Bowang New Village still retains the simplicity of when the village was built, and time seems to have stopped here.
