Introduction

The scenery along the Tangbagu Road is beautiful, and the withered tree beach in the middle of the river is particularly eye-catching. Although the trees here have lost their vitality, they emit a tough atmosphere, as if the elderly still firmly support themselves. The twisted trunks and branches of the trees present various unique shapes, like a display of sculptures. According to legend, the withered tree beach was once a battlefield between the Abalanceyi and the Meluodo families. Legend has it that the Meluodo family used magic to bring floods and drowned the soldiers of Abalan'ey, and the bodies of these soldiers turned into tall tree trunks when the flood receded, standing on this land.
