Changhua Tung Flower Festival Introduction
Every year in April and May, Changhua's Bagua Mountain is covered in a blanket of white as thousands of oil tung flowers bloom, surprising travelers! Along the Changhua East Outer Ring Road and County Road 139, one can spot the rare sight of a sea of oil tung flowers from afar in the mountains and valleys. The landscape is filled with flowers as far as the eye can see, which often leaves visitors stopping to appreciate it. On the hiking trail beside County Road 139, dense oil tung tree forests line both sides, with white petals falling like snow, creating a charming oil tung flower carpet on the ground. Tourists flock to photograph this beautiful scene, filling the valley with lively chatter. The area around Bagua Mountain on County Road 139 is abundant with tourist attractions and well-equipped facilities. Besides enjoying the oil tung flowers, visitors can also hike, cycle, pick fresh fruits at farms, taste fresh milk at pastures, and dine at restaurants, making it the most popular golden tourism route for flower viewing. When the oil tung flowers are in full bloom, bring your camera and a good mood to enjoy the romantic oil tung flower season in Changhua.
