European-style gardens: See four major tulip seascape spots without leaving the country

By MOOK Scenic Spots Editorial Team

If you want to take a stroll outdoors during the holiday in good weather, why not head to the suburbs to enjoy the flowers? Currently in the tulip season, here are four tulip seascape spots across Taiwan. Each location offers scenery reminiscent of the Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands, where vast lawns are covered with vibrant tulips in full bloom—a breathtaking sight that’s hard to forget.

1. Taichung – Zhongshe Sightseeing Flower Market
The Zhongshe Sightseeing Flower Market in Taichung has introduced over 50 varieties, totaling 600,000 tulips, featuring a tulip garden in various colors including pink, yellow, white, and peach. Together with the large windmills on the grounds, it forms a beautiful European landscape painting—making it a must-visit flower-spotting destination in central Taiwan.

2. Nantou – Shanlinxi Forest Ecological Resort

The tulip season at Shanlinxi has begun. The resort has introduced a rich variety of tulips, with their bright petals looking almost unreal. Their colorful display rivals that of European gardens, and when paired with the windmill scenery on-site, it creates a distinctly romantic, foreign atmosphere. In addition, you can also admire the maple and metasequoia forests here, with scenic views that feel like something out of an idol drama.
