Ruisui, Hualien, Taiwan
Fuyuan River
The Fuyuan River (Chinese: 富源溪; pinyin: Fùyuán Xī) is a tributary of the Xiuguluan River in Taiwan. Originating from the Dan Mountain, it flows through Hualien County for 28 km before joining Xiuguluan River in Ruisui, Hualien.
Ruisui, Hualien
Ruisui Township (Chinese: 瑞穗鄉; pinyin: Ruìsuì Xiāng) is a rural township located in southern Hualien County, Taiwan, and has a population of 12,107 inhabitants and 11 villages. The Tropic of Cancer passes through here.
This township is an alluvial plain which located in the mid Huatung Valley between Central Mountain Range, Coastal Mountain Range and Wuhe Terrace. Rafting activity on the Xiuguluan River often starts from the Ruisui Bridge.
The climate is between tropical and subtropical monsoon with humid climate. The population is composed of Min Nan, Hakka, and Taiwanese aborigines, most of which is the Amis tribe. Agriculture and tourism are major industries.
During Qing rule, the headquarters of Taitung Prefecture was located in modern-day Ruisui, known then as Tsui-be, or Tsui-boe (Chinese: 水尾; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chúi-bóe).
富源溪
富源溪,又名麻子漏溪,舊稱馬蘭鉤溪,為台灣秀姑巒溪北側的支流,發源於倫太文山南麓及沙武巒山北麓,流經花蓮縣萬榮鄉與瑞穗鄉兩鄉鎮,至瑞穗鄉瑞美村東方匯入秀姑巒溪。
富源溪上游設立有富源森林遊樂區,其中以蝴蝶谷與富源瀑布聞名。
富源溪舊稱「馬蘭鉤(Malango)溪」,其名循阿美族語「發朗奧」之音而來。
1935年(昭和10年),日人發現不論晴雨,該溪一直保持潔白清澈,故命名為「麻子漏溪」(日語中「真白溪」之意)。1937年,又有「白川」之稱。
瑞穗鄉
瑞穗鄉位於台灣花蓮縣中部偏南,北鄰光復鄉,西鄰萬榮鄉、卓溪鄉,東鄰豐濱鄉,南接玉里鎮,有北回歸線經過鄉境。鄉內居民以閩南人、客家人及原住民為主,而原住民又以阿美族為最多。
瑞穗鄉舊稱「水尾」,意思是秀姑巒溪之尾,後日本人因水尾的日文發音Mizuo,改為音近之「瑞穗」(Mizuho)。全鄉面積約有135平方公里,人口約1萬2千餘人,以秀姑巒溪激流泛舟而聞名全台。
本鄉的主力農特產品為天鶴茶和文旦,遠近馳名。紅葉溫泉、瑞穗溫泉皆位於萬榮鄉轄區,但距離瑞穗鄉界甚近,皆為備受民眾喜愛之溫泉勝地。
本鄉同時擁有泛舟、溫泉、銘茶等優良條件,已成為本縣農業與觀光結合的知名去處。

From Travel in Taiwan magazine 2018-7-8:
Feicui Valley
The pathway is less than 1km long and takes you upriver along the Mugua, through an old tunnel with dozing ceiling-clinging bats, and along an up-and-down au naturel exposed-root section to a tributary-stream waterfall with a wadeable rock pool at its base. This is the bottom of the narrow Feicui (Emerald) Valley, increasingly popular with river tracers.
Jilitan
Up a tributary stream just inside the mouth you’ll find the placid Jilitan (Jili Pond). It was created by the Japanese as a log pond, and is now cleared. It’s the centerpiece of a new breeze-brushed park with walking paths, Chinese imperial-style arch bridges, and foot-soak facilities.
Jinlai Huilan B&B
Located north of Ruisui town on Highway 9, the Jinlai Huilan B&B is run by a delightfully warm and young husband/wife team who not long ago decided to opt out of big-city living. Its layout is motel-like. Meals are taken in the main entrance area, and the five simple, tastefully appointed rooms, in the rear and along one side, are entered directly from outside. The tableau seen from the rooms is blissfully quaint – across valley-floor farms into the Butterfly Valley, trains drumming along with percussion-like rhythm in the distance. The meals are another soothing satisfaction. The husband has international-cuisine culinary-arts training, and clearly studied well.
(Rooms start at NT$2,200)

Butterfly Valley Resort
The Fuyuan National Forest Recreation Area is in yet another central-range valley. The park is between the towns of Guangfu and Ruisui. The focus here is eco-tourism. The Butterfly Valley Resort ( is managed by a commissioned private enterprise, and most of its amenities are just inside the park entrance. This is near Fuyuan Stream’s lower reaches, where the terrain is less steep. The resort’s amenities include a small upscale hotel, landscaped gardens, a butterfly museum, and an outdoor hot-spring spa. Guided eco-tours are available. These last 1.5 hours and take you through the gardens, along lower-area trails, and into the more rugged upper area. The upper area offers misty waterfalls, suspension bridges, and a broad camphor-tree stand. A fee is charged for non-hotel guests.
Coastal Skywalk
The new Hualien Fengbin Sky Trail is a double-thrill attraction. The “sky trail” is a 150m cliff-clinging skywalk that hangs you right out over the ocean, breakers and shore fishermen at your feet. A 20m section is transparent. The trail follows a narrow old path hacked from the cliff face, which connected local villages during the Japanese period. The second thrill is that your access walk is along a retired cliff-edge section of Highway 11. Your skywalk return is through an old highway tunnel, today filled with gift and snack stands.
Dashibi Hill
The hill on the south side of Jiqi Beach is easily ascended. It juts out into the sea, and the highway curves around it inland. The wood-stair pathway to the top, the Dashibi Hill Trail, starts at a highway-side parking lot and takes about 15 easy minutes to conquer. Your reward is splendid views of the rugged coastline north and south, local fishing craft out at sea, and the highway-side indigenous village inland.
Jiqi Beach
Jiqi Beach offers 3km of soft sandy shoreline in a shallow bay surrounded by mountain on three sides. This is the first good swimming beach south of Hualien City. On the south end is a resort with water- and beach-fun equipment, a snack shop, a retail/gift shop, and a camping area with covered wooden platforms.
