Pizitou Botanical Garden Introduction
Pizitou Botanical Garden, located near the Cultural Center, was established in 1908 (the 41st year of the Meiji era) and, along with the Shanzidong Botanical Garden, served as a site for the production and testing of rubber seedlings. Pizitou is situated in a flat area, unlike Shanzidong, which is hilly, and both locations conducted different forestry experiments simultaneously. Over time, it transformed into a site for tropical and subtropical reforestation trials and eventually became a place for cultivating reforestation tree species and landscaping seedlings. The botanical garden currently features areas with shrubs, vines, fragrant flowers, bamboo species, turf, and urban multi-layered forest landscapes, serving the public and scholars for leisure, recreation, education, and research purposes.
