1935年，木々の霊を弔う意味で樹霊塔が建てられた。魚に捧げる慰霊塔と同じだ。靖国神社の鳥居や，多くの日本の寺社の材料に阿里山の木が使われたと読んだが。＠阿里山 In 1935, this monument was built to mourn the spirits of the trees cut off...It is the same as the monument dedicated to the fish or others in Japan. I've read that the gateway of Yasukuni Shrine, or many other temples or shrines were made of Alishan tree, weren't it? @Alishan.
