The canvas of God -- Hayou River

        Hayuxi's secret place, which has become popular in recent years, is located in Wutai Township, Pingtung County. Because it can only be visited during the dry season every year, this hayuxi hot spring, which was called "the soup of clouded leopards" by the original Lukai people, adds a mysterious color. Also because the rock stratum of hayuxi is rich in iron and many minerals, the hot spring flows out of the rock wall after washing, dyeing the rocks red, black and white and yellow, Combined with the beauty of the local Canyon, it has the reputation of "God's canvas".

        In 2009, Typhoon Morakot caused the August 8th wind disaster, resulting in the destruction of Xiaolin village and hundreds of casualties. Fortunately, God not only brought difficulties, but also brought hope to people. Due to the collapse of mountains and rocks, the riverbed of hayu river is piled up to form a channel, which gives non Lukai outsiders the opportunity to see the mysterious veil of Lukai holy land.

                At present, yurangxi has become the largest autonomous village with local characteristics, such as yurangxi and yurangxi.

        After the Lukai people reclaim the road on the bed of hayouxi in the dry season every year, the Wutai Township Office will hold a "tour experience of Dawu hayouxi natural, cultural and ecological landscape area". However, Wutai township is an ecological protection area. Non local villagers must first complete the application for mountain entry registration at the "Sande inspection post". The total number of visitors per day is controlled during the dry season from January to April every year, Therefore, most people will stay in the guest house near Wutai one day in advance and enjoy the delicious food of the hometown, such as slate barbecue, Shenshan Aiyu, millet doughnuts, bamboo tube rice, tree bean spareribs soup, and Lu Kai's traditional dish qinafu. If they can arrive at Wutai before evening, they can understand why Wutai is called the "hometown of clouds and fog", because they feel surrounded by clouds and fog alone.

                On the morning of entering hayouxi, you should first go to Dawu tribe, one of the eight tribes in Wutai. On the way, you will pass through a "guren bridge", because the bridge width can only allow one car to pass one way. You must drive very carefully and straight. Local residents jokingly call it "wine test bridge". Wutai elementary school Dawu branch school is the check-in place for hayouxi's journey. During the waiting process, it was found that there is an exquisite school kitchen next to the playground, which is a place for the elders of the settlement long term care to provide food for each other. It is not difficult to see the cohesion of the Lukai people.

        During the visit to the secret place of hayouxi, take a bus to the riverbed of hayouxi after the gathering. Every moment is full of surprises. If it weren't for the local guide to drive, I can't believe I can ride through the waters that seem to have no roads. On the way, I opened the window and the stream splashed on my face, which was quite exciting to watch 4DX movies or explore in the amusement park.

        About 40 minutes later, we arrived at the river tracing place. After lunch prepared by the guides, we put on safety helmets to prevent falling stones, put on river tracing shoes and began the river tracing journey. Every scenic spot along the way makes people linger and forget to return. Whether it is the golden waterfall formed by the vertical erosion of the mountain wall by the waterfall, the clear stream, the hot spring emerging from the rock wall, or the spectacular and colorful colorful colorful rock wall of hayou River, which extends on the left and right sides like the gate of heaven. On the way back, we also passed several Yexi hot springs. Due to sufficient time, the guide asked us to stop for a short time to soak our feet and relieve the fatigue of tracing the river.

        Before I went to Wutai Township in Pingtung, I always thought it was a small mountain village, but after I really came here, I was surprised by the uncanny workmanship of nature. Not only the scenery is beautiful, but also there are all kinds of wild animals in the mountains and forests, and there are kites and eagles flying in the air. It is really a secret place worth exploring.
