The Alishan National Scenic Area (阿里山國家風景區) is a mountain resort and natural preserve located in the mountains of Chiayi County in Taiwan. It includes, among other things, mountain wilderness, four villages, waterfalls, high altitude tea plantations, the Alishan Forest Railway, and several hiking trails. Perhaps best known for its sunrises, one can observe the sun ascent from a sea of clouds in the area between Alishan and Yüshan on a morning of suitable climate.
