Located in Hanxi Village, Datong Township, Yilan County, Bulau Bulau is a mountain village built by the Atayal people. Located approximately 400 meters above sea level, it focuses on natural farming, cultural heritage, and immersive experiences, earning it the nickname "Modern Utopia." The village operates by reservation, accepting only 30 guests daily and not children under 16. The focus is on tranquility, respect, and quality.
The one-day tour, priced at NT$3200 (NT$1,000/4,000) per person, includes shuttle service, a guided tour of the tribe, craft activities, and aboriginal cuisine. Led by a member of the tribe, the tour will showcase millet wine brewing, ramie weaving, mushroom farms, farmland, and traditional architecture, offering a deep understanding of Atayal culture and its wisdom. Lunch will feature homegrown fruits and vegetables, free-range chickens and ducks, and mountain produce, blending aboriginal flavors with innovative cuisine, complemented by homemade millet wine for a unique experience.
The village preserves a wealth of pristine woodlands and natural landscapes, including bald cypress trees. Each winter, as the colors change, the forest trails transform into a dreamy blend of golden and orange, creating a hidden photo-op. The bald cypress forest intertwined with the mountain mist adds a tranquil and poetic touch to the village.
