               History of Fulong

               Anciently called Wa-zi-ao, Fulong was first developed during the Japanese colonial period. A
               railway was built through Fulong connecting Keelung and Yilan and since then Fulong got its name
               and people got to notice its uniquely landforms and beautiful scenery.  These features include
               arrangements of terraces, the unequalled Shuangxi inland river and the golden beach of Fulong.
               Today Fulong has become prosperous, with tens of thousands tourists visiting every year.  Thanks
               to well organized projects carried out by the Northeast and Yilan Coast Administration, people rush
               into Fulong by car or train to enjoy biking and hiking in spring, sand sculptures and water activities
               in summer, the beauty of Caoling Historic Trails in autumn, and most importantly, coming to eat
