Here are some photos. From top to bottom: (1) Looking downriver from the bridge visitors cross before entering the forest, which is on the north bank of the Zhiben River.
(2) One of the forest's many giant banyans.


(3) A waterfall in the lower part of the forest recreation area.

(4) A magnificent male Hebomoia glaucippe formosana spotted just outside the visitors centre and identified for me by this blogger (many thanks!). Unfortunately I couldn't get a full frontal. The forest offers much better butterflying than birding.
That butterfly is a male Hebomoia glaucippe formosana 端紅蝶! Great find, I see them all the time when cycling in Jhongliao.
