Description of Our Community: “Kesiyono”--a remote tribe located in beautiful Fuhsing Township Loma Road, is an interesting and eye-catching place with a long-time history of evolution. The name includes the meaning of a “foggy” mountainous place, especially in the winter. Sometimes, it’s covered by snow despite of moderate altitude (approx. 900m)! In ancient times, it often became a settlement of some tribes because of the frequent presence of “animal footprints”. So, “Kesiyono” is perhaps represented by “abundant products”! Somebody also said: “Kesiyono” indicates “big timber” as it was once endowed with many trees. However, everybody who paid a visit here would surely enjoy it! You’re welcome to this place. For any detail, please contact: “Thinking Hunters”, who will provide you with the first-class services.

Project Description: After making a netsurfing in the “Happy Paradise” webpage of the last year Cyberfair Project, prepared by the elder schoolfellow, what interested us most now was to climb Najishan, where we could amuse ourselves like Tarzan. But, parents refused our request for accompany, saying: “it’s a long way for you.“ However, it can be found from their mesh bags after they returned from the trip that there are many funny animals and plants in the forest! After some outdoor practices, we found it was like a natural museum with a wide variety of plants spread all over Kui Hui River and Kesiyono top. Also, some ancient mountain valleys with abundant shell fossils revealed many mysteries of the nature. Kesiyono elementary school has now become a “Natural Center” since the Ministry of Education initiated a campus movement plan. After discussions based on the curriculum, we’ve decided to cross through five valleys of Kesiyono endowed with natural features, i.e. a series of expedition of “Unveiling the Mystery of Kesiyono”.
