Villa Kurasu
Kurasu Leisure Farm is a natural ecological park and a forest resort located at the foot of Pa-hsien Mountain. The climate is fairly mild in winter and rather cool in summer. Walk into the park and see a large forest, where the gurgling stream in the courtyard blends into the clouds and mists stacked up layer upon layer in the mountains from the distance. The time flows slowly and peacefully here. Sit down, slowly, slowly and listen carefully to the natural conversations between mountains and the wind.
Kurasu Leisure Farm is a loving and heartwarming farm which applies the freshest ingredients of original taste to treat you with sincerity.
