Travel northward from Taitung City, over the Chunghua Bridge above the Beinan river, follow the route on the right side and exit at the north end of the bridge to enter the old route of Provincial Highway 11, proceed for another 1 kilometer, you will see a green road sign that reads “Shi-chuan” (Stone River, Ishikawa ). That is where Kakawasan is located, in the administrative district of Fufeng Li of Taitung City.
Though within the vicinity of Taitung, Fufeng community does not have the urban taste: mountains, river, beach, tranquility, and harmonious people, as if times has stopped to stay here, unwilling to leave. It is like a remote, an isolated village. It is hard to imagine that this is the end of Taitung County Route 197 and at the junction of Taiwan Provincial Highway 9 and Old Taiwan Provincial Highway 11. It should be a transportation hub, however, few vehicles pass by. Consequently, it retains the slow pace as if in a forgotten world of Xanadu, without the urban bustling, with only serenity, peace and beauty. We smile, we live: here is our home.
