The Baolai Old Tree Plaza features a precious collection of old trees (lemon eucalyptus and old camphor trees), which can be easily spotted when entering the Baolai area from Liuqiu. The plaza is situated at a higher elevation compared to the surrounding terrain, offering views of the Laonong River valley and the surrounding hills, creating a beautiful landscape. Even on regular days, visitors often stop here to admire the lovely valley scenery. During the annual plum blossom hot spring season celebrations, the old tree plaza also serves as a main venue for events and performances. The first phase of the center's construction (building works) commenced on October 13, 2009, and was completed on February 6, 2010. The first floor mainly serves as a visitor service center, including a visitor inquiry service desk, a multifunctional audiovisual room, an interactive travel guide inquiry media area, an exhibition area, and a wooden relaxation platform. The second floor consists of a small conference room, seminar room, and office space. The outdoor area on the first floor can serve as a multi-purpose relaxation space, integrating the leisure and recreation functions of the old tree plaza with the surrounding hot springs and agricultural specialty industries, providing a better and more convenient tourism environment, promoting local tourism development. 【Barrier-free Facilities】 Mobility Assistance Tools Wheelchair: 1 Accessible Restrooms: 3 Accessible Parking Spaces: Cars: 2
