Zhushan Station: Alishan's New Landmark - English version

Zhushan station on the Alishan Forest Railway line officially reopened on Nov. 20 after three years of extensive renovations.
Zhushan station is the highest railway station in Taiwan and the first mountain station to be a diamond-rated green building, reported CNA. The station features intelligent ecological lighting, water storage functionality, and a double-layered, single-side platform with a crescent-shaped design, creating a new landmark for Alishan.
Below are descriptions of six highlights.
1. Alishan's famous sea of clouds was the inspiration for the α-shaped roof design.
2. The structure combines a steel frame with home grown Taiwan cypress and acacia to achieve a harmonious balance between strength and flexibility, making maintenance easy.
3. Taking into account ecology and conservation, and blending into the landscape.
4. Providing passengers with safer and more comfortable facilities.
5. Making good use of the terrain to create the maximum space.
6. Preserving the value and memory of this cultural landscape.
