隱藏在台灣東北角隆隆山區的百年古厝群, 水梯田已消失, 居民已遷走, 而一棟棟的百年石頭厝隱身於山林裡, 宛如「台灣版小型吳哥窟」; 還有明治41年 (1908) 土地公, 百年土地公, 仍默默守護著這片已被遺的家園。感謝藍天隊、聯合艦隊新清理這條古道山徑。
Hidden in the Longlong Mountains in the northeast corner of Taiwan are centuries-old ancient houses. The water terraces have disappeared, the residents have moved away, but the century-old stone houses are hidden in the mountains and forests, just like "Taiwan's version of mini-Angkor Wat". There is also the earth god temple of the 41st year of Meiji (1908), the Hundred-year Youyingog templ still silently guarding this abandoned homeland. Thanks to the Blue Sky Team and the United Fleet mountaineering Teams for cleaning up this ancient mountain trail.
