The hidden flower fields in Chiayi feature sunflowers and cosmos flowers, which are landscape crops planted during the fallow period of farmland. Once tilled back into the soil, the flowers become natural fertilizer and create a limited-time scenic view. Nearby, there are also therapeutic straw rolls, making Chiayi’s small rural village, Xingang Anhe Village, a highly popular IG-worthy spot.
In the vast fields, straw rolls as tall as a person give off an exotic countryside vibe.
On the way to Xingang to shoot the flower fields, next to the high-speed rail viaduct, there lies a vast field with straw rolls left after harvest. Coupled with the pleasant weather of southern Taiwan, it's a very soothing and healing sight.
The straw rolls are located next to the high-speed rail viaduct.
White cosmos flowers planted during the fallow period.
Besides sunflowers, crops such as rapeseed flowers and various types of cosmos flowers are also commonly planted during the fallow period. They help revitalize the fields, reduce pollution from artificial fertilizers, and prevent air pollution caused by the traditional practice of burning straw to enrich the soil.
The limited-time flower fields vary in color and type of flowers planted depending on the season.
When taking photos in the flower fields, be careful not to trample or damage the cosmos flowers, as this can prevent them from forming seeds. Although cosmos flowers can serve as green manure, farmers also sell the seeds, so it’s important to respect these freely accessible private fields.
