BBQ Area: The BBQ area is divided into an outdoor garden BBQ area and a group BBQ area: - The outdoor garden BBQ area, located next to the orchard, is surrounded by green trees, providing the joy of rural barbecuing (can accommodate 100 people). - The group BBQ area is located under a semi-indoor roof, providing sunshade and rain protection, equipped with a stage, making it the best BBQ venue for large groups (can accommodate 450 people and includes a KTV stage). - The farm provides a charcoal-grilled package with not only fresh and flavorful meat options but also ready-to-eat services, making barbecue meals more convenient and satisfying. Fruit Tree Observation Area: The farm has developed an open area for fruit tree viewing, available for visits year-round with professional guided tours that introduce guests in an engaging manner. The intriguing ecology of the fruit trees is explored, including varieties like breadfruit, cherimoya, miracle fruit, and tree grapes. There are rare fruits to see, like grapes growing on trees and coffee beans on trees. The farm also specially plans outdoor educational visit projects for students, welcoming groups from all educational levels to schedule visits. Fruit Picking Area: Gonglaoping Farm spans over ten hectares and cultivates several dozen types of fruit trees year-round, allowing for the harvesting of seasonal fruits. Located at an altitude of around 400 to 500 meters on a branch of the Central Mountain Range, the temperature difference between day and night promotes the growth of fruit trees. The soil quality is good, and sunlight hours are longer here compared to other places, resulting in fruits with higher sweetness. The fruit picking area is open for visitors to freshly taste seasonal fruits continuously throughout the year (please refer to the maturity period of the fruits for picking availability). Tianyuan Art Museum: Integrating agriculture with art, this museum houses ancient farming tools left by ancestors and nearly a hundred works by Mr. Kuo Chih-Kang, open for visitors to appreciate. Noteworthily, this insightful and down-to-earth artist, who is over fifty years old, is a treasure in Taiwan's art scene, dedicated not only to his own artistic style but also committed to promoting and practicing the integration of art with rural communities.
