Celebrating the Alishan Forest Railway - Google Doodle

Celebrating today the Alishan Forest Railway, built in 1912, the railway’s original purpose was transporting timber out of the vast forest and today it whisks travelers along a scenic journey up to 2216 meters above sea level traversing narrow zigzagging paths. Unique switchback tracks of the Alishan Forest Railway allow the train to move both forwards and backwards to climb especially steep mountain terrain. Along the route lies Zhaoping Park, which is one of the best spots for taking in cherry blossoms, particularly now and throughout the springtime season.
