The Alishan Range (Chinese: 阿里山山脈; pinyin: Ālǐ Shān Shānmài) is a mountain range in the central-southern region of Taiwan.
The highest peak of the Alishan Range is Datashan (大塔山), which has a height of 2,663 m (8,737 ft).
[1] The name Ali Shan seems to be taken from the word "Alit", which in several Taiwanese indigenous languages means "ancestor mountain".
Co-directed by Chang Cheh and Cheung Ying, Happenings in Ali Shan is the first Mandarin film to be fully produced in Taiwan.
The film's theme song, "Gao Shan Qing" (高山青; "The High Green Mountain") also known as (阿里山的姑娘; Ālǐ shān de gūniáng; 'Alishan Range's Maidens') is a particularly famous song in the Sinophone world.
