🌸Strategies for cherry blossom viewing in spring and whale watching in summer (Part 1)|Taiwan’s secret places are exploding!

Taiwan not only has cherry blossom views that rival those of Japan, but is also one of the places with the highest whale watching rates in the world. Let’s plan a dream trip that combines the pink sea of ​​flowers and the deep blue ocean! 🌸 Cherry blossom viewing in spring: the sea of ​​pink flowers is as good as Japan! Taiwan's cherry blossom season lasts from January to April. Due to the large climate differences between the north and the south, the cherry blossom blooms at different times in different regions. Here are some super beautiful cherry blossom viewing spots recommended, allowing you to take romantic photos that rival those in Japan. 1️⃣ Yangmingshan|Taipei City 📍 Best time to view cherry blossoms: early February – mid-March Yangmingshan has more than 20 varieties of cherry blossoms, the most famous of which are the pink Hikanzakura and the tender pink Yoshino cherry. We recommend going to Lane 42, Pingjing Street to take photos of the beautiful cherry blossom tunnel, or going to Yangmingshan Flower Clock and Zhuzihu to enjoy the pink beauty all over the mountains. 2️⃣ Wuling Farm|Taichung City 📍 Best time to view cherry blossoms: mid-February – early March Known as the "Little Kyoto of Taiwan", the cherry blossom season at Wuling Farm is comparable to that of Nara, Japan. The Yoshino cherry blossoms and Fuji cherry blossoms that cover the mountains attract a large number of photography enthusiasts every year. You can also see wild sika deer roaming under the cherry trees here, which is a unique experience. 3️⃣ Alishan|Chiayi County 📍 Best time to view cherry blossoms: mid-March – early April When the Yoshino cherry and double cherry blossoms in Alishan are in full bloom, it seems as if the entire mountain is dyed pink. Take the Alishan train through the cherry blossom forest and feel the dreamy atmosphere of cherry blossom rain falling on the window. This is definitely a romantic attraction that you must experience in your life! 4️⃣ Taiping Mountain Jianqing Nostalgic Trail|Yilan County 📍 Best time to view cherry blossoms: mid-March – mid-April This trail is known as the "most beautiful cherry blossom railway". Along the way, you can see pink Yoshino cherry blossoms and steamy cloud forests intertwined together, like a fairyland. In addition to enjoying the cherry blossoms, you can also soak in the hot springs and experience a full-scale journey of physical and mental relaxation. #Chiayi Sakura

Jianqing Huaigu Trail

Yilan has always been a healing place for tourism in Taiwan. If you are tired of the busy life in the city, you might as well have a real "forest bath" experience! This trip chose the popular natural attraction in Yilan - Jianqing Huaigu Trail. Walking in the forest on the trail, breathing in the full of natural oxygen, instantly felt like the mind was washed by nature. If you like camping and like to be close to the mountains and forests, Yilan really will not disappoint you! The Sunny Nostalgia Trail was originally the ruins of the Taiping Mountain Forest Railway, retaining the charming and primitive atmosphere of the old railway and old tree roots. The trail is about 2.45 kilometers long and about 1,700 meters above sea level. The difficulty is simple, just walk slowly and stop to feel the breeze in the forest. Along the trail you will encounter ancient cypress trees, a sea of ​​dense trees, and small squirrels and birds jumping around from time to time. The most eye-catching thing is the towering native semi-wild forest on both sides of the trail. It’s really healing to stroll along! Popular photo spot: The old railway wooden bridge, taking pictures under the shade of light and shadow, is as beautiful as a painting. - Address: 267 No. 1 of 58 Taiping Lane, Datong Township, Yilan County, Taiwan - Opening hours: 06:00-17:00 year-round Practical tips: 1️⃣ Forest trail morning and evening temperature difference, remember to bring a jacket; some areas of the trail are wet and slippery, it is recommended to wear hiking shoes or non-slip sneakers. 2️⃣ The mobile phone signal is weaker along the way, it is best to download the offline map in advance. 3️⃣ There is a parking lot at the entrance of the trail, if you drive directly; but on holidays it is recommended to go in the morning, otherwise cars may have to queue. 4️⃣ The trail is not easy to walk, suitable for families, but children need to pay attention to safety, close to the guardrail do not climb. After returning to the city, you can stop by the "Lo Tung Night Market" to enjoy the tangerine stew and Samsung onion cake. There are also light meals available at Taiping Mansion, suitable for replenishing energy before and after the trip. There is direct passenger transportation between Yilan and Taipei, where you can transfer to Taiping Mountain and the trail entrance. If driving from Taipei City about 2.5 hours drive. Coming to Yilan is not just about "checking in" at the attractions, slowly walking on the forest trails and enjoying your own time in nature. The body and mind are relaxed, even breathing is especially fresh! #Yilan Trail #Forest Bath #Peak Mountain #Camping Recommendation #Taiwan Natural Scenery
