苗栗丨MIAOLI
Yuanli Township is situated in the southwestern region of Miaoli, bordered to the north by Tongxiao, to the west by the Taiwan Strait, to the east by Huoyan Mountain, and to the south by the Da'an River. It is one of the earliest developed areas in Miaoli. Known as the "Granary of Miaoli," Yuanli is renowned for its abundant agricultural resources. The cultivation of rice and rush grass, along with innovative craftsmanship, gives Yuanli a unique charm that sets it apart from other towns.
Autumn is coming! Every year from October to November, it's the season when the miscanthus blooms. Whether in the mountains or by the river, you can admire the miscanthus swaying like silver waves. Houlong Cape of Good Hope , located at the highest point of the hills, is an excellent spot to appreciate the miscanthus. Besides the miscanthus, Houlong's unique Hakka characteristics continue to surprise me!
