Huwei Cherry Blossom Avenue Introduction
Huwei Cherry Blossom Avenue is located on the North 4th Highway in Tamsui. Huwei is the old name of Tamsui, and the Huwei Rotary Club and Tamsui District Office initiated the planting of Yoshino cherry and mountain cherry trees to increase the density of cherry blossoms along the North 4th Highway from Shulin Kou to Sankong Spring, forming a cherry blossom avenue. With the opening of the Tamsui Light Rail, visitors can disembark at the Dazhongshan-Denggong Station and walk about 100 meters to find the 4-kilometer-long cherry blossom tunnel before them. The Cherry Blossom Avenue stretches approximately 4 kilometers, making it not only the only one in Tamsui but also the longest cherry blossom pathway in the world. It offers stunning views of Datun Mountain and serves as a hiking route for nearby residents on regular days. During the spring festival, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the road, covered in blooming cherry flowers, looks like a dreamlike pink carpet. Along this road, one can also see sweet gum and banyan trees showcasing their vibrant vitality.
