Tung Blossom Park Introduction
Tucheng District Office in New Taipei City established Tung Flower Park in 2004 to promote a healthy ecological journey, covering an area of seven hectares. Located on the hillside of Tiangshan, the highest peak in Tucheng, Tung Flower Park is situated in a valley formed by Nantianshan and Huoyanshan. The scenic wooden plank trail along Shibilyiao Creek gracefully ascends. The multi-functional recreation park features a variety of facilities, including an open-air performance and viewing area, a charcoal kiln demonstration area, a tea resting platform, an observation deck overlooking the Tucheng urban area, a triangular suspension bridge for children to play on, a three-dimensional climbing net, and a firefly rehabilitation area, making it a multifunctional leisure park. Known as the "Romantic May Snow," the park has planted nearly a hundred oil tung trees and mountain cherry blossoms. Each spring and early summer, when the tung flowers bloom, visitors stroll along the scenic trails to admire the beautiful sight of the flowers resembling snow. It is very romantic to see tourists arrange the collected tung flower blossoms into heart shapes. In recent years, ecological restoration has been successful, and at night, fireflies can be seen dancing, allowing visitors to temporarily forget the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in the embrace of nature.
