Once we had our pictures taken, we followed the path straight ahead that leads to a steep descend. People with severe mobility problem will find the steep descend down the hill extremely difficult and challenging.






Outside the castle, you will find a small wooden fenced area where younger sheep are kept.














There were plenty of dispenser machine around that dispense a handful of sheep food for TWD 10.



The castle also offers an amazing panoramic views of surrounding grasslands and mountains.


We continued our descent down the mountain. The weather was cooling and it felt great. But the uneven pavement makes it difficult and tiring to walk on.  There are also several pavilions along the walkway for visitors to rest and enjoy the greenery and fresh air.


Further down, we were excited to see herds of sheep grazing lazily under the clear blue sky. The sheep are allowed to roam freely on the open grassy plains. It was a very delightful sight to see.


The grasslands provide plenty of food for the herds of sheep to graze, ignoring us as we came and went during the day.








As you slowly descend your way down, take a deep breath of the clean, cool and crisp mountain air. This is a perfect little place for people who wish to get away from the hectic city life and get close to nature.


Relax and unwind as you stroll down the mountain trail while the cooling breeze gently brushed across your face. Everywhere you look, it is peaceful. The pace of life is slower. This is where you will start to appreciate the little things in life.








We were surprised to see a black sheep with orangery brown wool!








Away from hustle and bustle of city life, Green Green Grassland is ideal for anyone seeking for peace and tranquility. It is a great place to spend a day with your family and friends, particularly if you bring a picnic basket along.







The weather is a little unpredictable. It was sunny one moment and gloomy the next. There were even moments when we thought it would rain because the sky was so dark. But luckily, it did not.

Green Green Grassland also offers a sheep and horse show to entertain its visitors on stage. You may want to check out the show schedule below if you are interested in watching any of the shows.

At the end of the trail, we came upon a small open-air amphitheater where the signature sheep show will be held. Unfortunately, the show will only be held during weekend at 9.30 am and 2.30 pm, with each lasting for about half an hour. Since we visited on a weekday, we did not managed to catch the show.

The Equestrian stunt show, on the other hand, is held daily at 10.45 am and 3.45 pm. However, we decided to skip the horse show due to tight itinerary.

For those interested, please note that the sheep show and horse show are held at two different venues. So, make sure you are at the right venue for the show.







Apart from that, private horseback rides are available for an additional fee. If I did not remember wrongly, it was TWD 150 per round for a rider. The horse ride will be guided by a trainer, so you can assured that you are in safe hand.




Even so, this was actually a great opportunity for us to touch a horse. Although I was hesitant to touch them for fear of being bitten, eventually, I still did it. We took the chance to snap a quick photo with the horses as well


The horses actually looked a little tired and sleepy on the day we visited. They appeared uninterested in the people and surroundings around them.

We spend a good 3 hours taking photographs and enjoying the nature. Since it was a normal weekday, the entire place was not too crowded. It was a peaceful walk at our own pace in our own time.


Other than that, we also enjoyed hours of uninterrupted photo-taking time without having to wait for other visitors to walk pass first before proceeding to take pictures. It felt as though we had the entire place to ourselves!




So, if you wish to avoid the crowds, I would suggest you to visit on a normal weekday. This will allow you to enjoy plenty of private moments with your loved ones.





We walked down a few flight of stairs and arrived at a marketplace.



This is where you could buy local fruits and snacks from the many stalls available.




Personally, I feel that the Green Green Grassland is well-worth a visit, especially if you are a nature lover. For us, this is definitely one of the must-visit destination in Cingjing and I would recommend anyone to drop by if you have time.

Be sure to have your camera ready to capture some breathtaking pictures and be amazed by its amazing landscape.
