Campus Environment
The campus is located in the central part of Chia-yi County, 15 kilometers from the City of Chia-yi, which is  approximately 250 kilometers south of Taipei. The campus occupies an open landscape of 132 hectares on a hill, with more than 200,000 trees of various species. On a campus tour, one may be amazed by the elegant buildings of different architectural styles, surrounded by tall trees, open green spaces, and winding roads flanked with flowering trees and bushes blooming in different seasons. The campus itself is a beautiful park with serenity and openness, and is literally a breath of fresh air in comparison to Taiwan’s more urban campuses. Viewed from the plains below, the University resembles a splendid palace on a hill. Despite the image of university as seemingly the excluded ivory tower, the university is in fact friendly open to all and serves the community in many ways.
The 5th International Conference on Accounting and Information Technology
would be conducted at National Chung Cheng University which is located in Central Southern Taiwan, Chiayi County. Chiayi is approximately 250 kilometers south of Taiwan’s capital, Taipei. With completion of the High-Speed Rail, Chiayi is easily accessible, and it will take merely one hour to travel to Taipei and half an hour to Kaohsiung. With 540,000 people, Chiayi is in the process of striking a balance between rural agro-ecological culture andurban planning development. The 23.5 Tropic of Cancer passes through Chiayi, so Chiayi is rich in natural resources, featuring a uniquely ecological landscape and rich fishery products.

Alishan
Alishan is not only the most famous tourist spot in Taiwan, but also the most popular travel destination for overseas tourists. People who haven't been to Alishan cannot truly say they have really been to Taiwan. However, the Alishan area was first explored a long time ago. But it was developed later and slowly, like a pearl with dust -- it takes everyone's efforts to make it shine and become brighter. Alishan's beauty is natural with living creatures. Besides the sunrise, sea of clouds, brilliant sunshine, and sunset, its spectacular views encompass Tashan, Xiaoliyuanshan, Zhushan and Wanshuishan.

Guanziling Scenic Area
 Guanziling Hotspring is a mud hot spring in Tainan, also called "The Best Spiritual Spring in the world." This may not sound very appealing, but the waters have a reputation for treating skin allergies, and the spring is reportedly one of only three of its type in the world (the other two being in Kagoshima,Japan and Vulcano,Italy). The standard course of treatment is to slather on the stuff, let in dry out for a few minutes, then rinse it off in a pool and repeat. It's also regarded as a natural source of beauty treatment. Besides, there is a special spot called " Fire and Water Spring" in Guanziling. A river passes the area, allowing underground natural gas to ascend through cracks in the rock, emerge from the surface along with the spring water, and feed an eternal flame that dances in the water.
