Additionally, Fushoushan Farm also noted that the above estimated dates may be brought forward if cold fronts cause temperatures to drop. Travelers planning to view the foliage are advised to start planning their trips soon and keep an eye on the latest foliage updates. Other well-known maple viewing spots in central and southern Taiwan, such as Xitou, Shanlinxi, and Alishan, which vary in latitude and elevation, will also enter their foliage seasons one after another throughout November.
