The warmer winter due to El Niño has disrupted the blooming schedules of many plants, also officially kicking off the cherry blossom season in Wulai District, New Taipei City. After being ravaged by typhoons, Wulai District in New Taipei City has gradually regained its original appearance through the joint efforts of all sectors in reconstruction and recovery. This year, the blooming periods of mountain cherry blossoms in Wulai are staggered. The blossoms at Baogong Temple have already begun to bloom, while those in Xiaoyi Village, Xinxian Village, and Fushan Village are heavily budded and await full bloom. This prolongs the cherry blossom viewing period, making now through March the best time to enjoy the blossoms in Wulai District.

Wulai District offers a wide variety of cherry blossom viewing routes, featuring dense green forests and winding streams that remain clear and cool throughout the year, providing diverse and enriching itineraries that add great charm. In February, the cherry blossoms have turned the trees a brilliant crimson, accompanied by green maples and sweet gums transitioning from yellow to crimson. Among the sea of yellow and red foliage, the gorgeous cherry blossoms add a unique touch. In Wulai, you can not only enjoy the diverse and ever-changing forest landscapes on foot but also cycle through the cherry and maple groves to discover the hidden beauty of the cherry blossom sanctuaries. Beyond cherry blossom viewing, you can explore Wulai’s winding mountain trails, listen to birdsong, the murmuring streams, and the sounds of the forest, and then experience the area’s renowned carbonated hot springs, perfectly concluding your cherry blossom journey in Wulai.
