Hsingquanzhen Wind Chimes Tree Introduction
Every year, when the yellow bellflower season arrives, a flower chasing craze emerges across various regions, and the Xingquan Canal, located at the intersection of Guangfu and Ruishui, is a popular spot for viewing yellow bellflowers. The nearly 300-meter-long yellow bellflower path blooms with golden flowers in March, contrasting beautifully with the distant green mountains. The shimmering reflections in the gently flowing canal create a scene reminiscent of a stunning oil painting, making it a rising hotspot for Instagram and Facebook check-ins. The Xingquan Canal, originating from Fuyuan Butterfly Valley, was built during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty and has a long history of over a hundred years. It was later taken over by Taiwan Sugar Corporation, which planted bellflowers along both sides of the canal. During the blooming season in March, a golden river appears, with the vibrant yellow flowers reflecting in the nearby rice paddies, attracting many tourists to enjoy the view and wander through this beautiful scenery. A crucial reminder: as this spot is near a school, please do not park vehicles randomly or near the school (such as Fuyuan Junior High School) to maintain smooth traffic flow! Since the area around the canal consists of farmland and thickets, visitors should walk along the berms, as slipping may occur. It is advisable to wear non-slip shoes or waterproof shoes that are not afraid of getting dirty, and they can be cleaned after flower viewing. In addition to being careful not to fall into the canal, please keep the environment clean by taking your trash with you.
