—Introduction to the Park—
- New Taipei Wulai Yun Hsien Resort
Situated about 27 kilometers southeast of Taipei City, Wulai stands as the only mountainous township in Taipei County. The entire area boasts lush greenery, with towering trees, flowing crystal-clear waters, and encircling mountains. At the top of the famous Wulai Waterfall, the source reveals a breathtaking scene of lake and mountain vistas, with ancient trees reaching skyward, misty clouds floating through the forest, and vibrant butterflies fluttering, while cicadas sing and birds chirp—creating an idyllic paradise. However, the beauty of this landscape remained out of reach for visitors due to the steep cliffs of the Nanshi River. To address this, plans for a cable car system emerged, offering a new way to present the untouched natural beauty to the public. With each season showcasing its unique charm, the landscape transforms like a fairyland, and the area was aptly named "Yun Hsien Resort" to capture its magical allure. - Wulai Log Cart (closed for maintenance on the first Tuesday of every month)
Initially, the Wulai log cart was used solely for transporting timber. However, with the growth of tourism driven by the Wulai Waterfall, passenger service began in 1963, initially operating with manual push carts to carry visitors. As the number of tourists steadily increased, the service was mechanized in 1974, using diesel engines to power the cable cars. In 1987, after overcoming numerous challenges, a tunnel was dug at the waterfall station to replace the original rotating turntable, a feature that remains in use to this day. The operational route stretches approximately 1.6 kilometers from Wulai Station to Waterfall Station, operating daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. During the busy summer months, the schedule is adjusted to accommodate demand, with cars running on a "first come, first served" basis to ensure service for tourists. A visit to Wulai Old Street is incomplete without experiencing the cable car, a popular attraction for both adults and children alike. - Wulai Forestry Life Museum (closed every Tuesday)
Transforming from the former Wulai Cable Car Museum, the Wulai Forestry Life Museum now showcases the captivating history and artifacts of the cable car system, alongside stunning views of the waterfall. The museum offers daily opportunities to ride the cable car and participate in guided tours, providing an immersive experience of Wulai's history. On weekends, the museum hosts restorative and artistic activities designed to nourish the soul, inviting friends who love nature and the arts to join in. Visitors can also head to the B3 large terrace of the museum, where the breathtaking beauty of Wulai Waterfall makes for the perfect photo opportunity. - Wulai Waterfall

It was listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Taiwan during the Japanese occupation, and it is also known as the "Taki of Clouds". When rainfall is abundant, Wulai Falls will form two flying springs that flow down from the valley, showing its majestic beauty. In spring, you can also enjoy the pink cherry blossoms blooming next to the waterfall, dotting the waterfall forest. - Wulai Old Street
"Wulai Old Street" refers to the area around Wulai Street, Waterfall Road and Huanshan Road. The shop signboards are in the same style and look quite neat, and most of the shops feature Aboriginal characteristics, so tourists You can taste aboriginal-style mountain delicacies, such as charcoal-grilled mountain pork, hot spring eggs, moon peach rice, bamboo tube rice, Makauy cuisine, shansu, green onions, etc., which are all aboriginal-flavored dishes rarely seen in other places. In addition, there are also specialties such as millet wine and millet mochi, which are also suitable for giving to relatives and friends as souvenirs.
