Tonghua Park Introduction
The Tucheng District Office in New Taipei City promotes healthy ecological travel and established the Tung Flower Park in 2004, covering an area of seven hectares. Tung Flower Park is located on the hillside of Tian Shang Mountain, the highest peak in Tucheng, in a valley formed by Nan Tian Mu Mountain and Huo Yan Mountain. The park features a winding wooden path along the Shibi Liao Creek. Tung Flower Park is a multifunctional recreational park equipped with various facilities, including an outdoor performance area and seating area, a charcoal kiln exhibition area, a tea resting platform, an observation deck overlooking Tucheng City, a triangular suspension bridge for children to play, a three-dimensional climbing net, and a firefly restoration area, making it a versatile leisure park. The park features nearly a hundred oil tung trees and mountain cherry blossoms, and during the late spring to early summer when the tung flowers bloom, visitors can stroll along the scenic walkways and enjoy the beautiful sight of the white tung flowers. It is common to see visitors arranging collected tung flower blossoms into heart shapes, creating a romantic atmosphere. In recent years, ecological restoration has been successful, and at night, fireflies can be seen dancing, allowing people to temporarily forget the hustle and bustle and embrace nature.
