This beautiful rural road is a vital route for the industry and a popular hiking trail in Ruili. It was once a filming location for martial arts movies and an important venue for Ruili's bamboo forest tea gatherings. Starting from the southwest end, the road winds through a couple of bends before reaching the main section, which lies between the 1,100 and 1,150 meter elevation contours. If we consider this journey as a suite, the bamboo forests at the edges and the vegetable patches, tea gardens, and fruit trees like peaches and plums at the beginning are the engaging prelude. Along the way, birds like the Taiwan whistling thrush and the brown-headed thrush chirp and sing, attracted by the numerous insects under the bamboo forests, as if they are enjoying the beautiful mountain scenery. After the opening section, the scenery shifts to a lush green bamboo sea. On both sides of the road, dense bamboo forests stretch towards the sky, forming a green tunnel. Sitting by the roadside to rest, one can listen to the gentle rustling of the wind; under the bamboo shade, plants common in the Alishan area, such as the Ruan Da Qiu Begonia, also thrive. Later, we arrive at the scenic pavilion at the end of the farm road, next to a connecting path that joins the "Wild Ginger Creek Trail". The stone staircase extending upwards from here passes through a stand of Chamaecytisus and leads to the entrance at kilometer 81 on "County Road 166" and the nearby entrance to the Ruitao Ancient Trail.
