After 16 years, I once again visited Xiangtianhu Mountain, one of Taiwan's 100 representative suburban mountains in Nanzhuang, Miaoli. I used my experience 16 years ago to estimate the hiking time, but I seriously misjudged it. Fortunately, we were able to get down the mountain safely with a unforgettable memoriy.
