Hotels in Chiayi County, Taiwan
Chiayi County in southern Taiwan is your gateway to the famed Alishan Mountain, known for its sunrises over a sea of clouds and the historic Alishan Forest Railway. The subtropical climate means warm, rainy summers from June to August and mild winters around 60°F (15°C) - perfect for hiking Alishan's trails in spring (March-May) when cherry blossoms bloom, or exploring the coastal wetlands of Budai in fall for oyster farming and seafood. In Chiayi City, you can sample turkey rice at night markets year-round, while winter offers crystal-clear views from the Alishan summit without the summer crowds.
