The orchard observation area provides a year-round open space for visitors, along with professional guided tours that share entertaining narratives about the ecological wonders of fruit trees, including varieties like jackfruit, lucuma, miracle fruit, and tree grapes, as well as rare fruits such as grapes and coffee beans growing on trees. The farm also plans outdoor educational activities for students, welcoming school groups to make reservations for visits. Gonglaoping Farm spans over ten hectares and cultivates dozens of types of fruit trees, with seasonal fruits ripening throughout the year. Located in the foothills of the central mountain range at an altitude of 400 to 500 meters, this area experiences significant temperature differences between day and night, which contributes to the exceptional growth of the fruit trees. The soil quality and sunlight exposure here are better than in other regions, resulting in sweeter ripened fruit. The fruit-picking area is open for visitors to enjoy fresh seasonal fruit throughout the year (please refer to the fruit ripening calendar for details). The countryside art museum combines farming and art, housing ancient agricultural tools left by ancestors and nearly a hundred works by artist Guo Qikang, open for visitors to admire. Notably, this intelligent and humble artist, in his fifties, is a treasure in Taiwan's art scene, not only for his personal painting style but also for his dedication to promoting and realizing "art in the local context."
