If you want to admire a sea of flaming red cottonflowers, besides visiting Bahe’s Linchupi and Dongluo Stream, there’s another hidden cottonflower gem in Changhua. Located near the embankment off Xintian Lane in Xin Guang Village, Zhutang Township, a row of towering cottonflower trees stands amid lush green rice paddies, creating a breathtaking view that has visitors constantly clicking their cameras — making it a new spring flower-watching hotspot.

The fiery red cottonflower boulevard in Zhutang stretches about 100 meters, beautifully contrasting with the adjacent green rice fields and standing out vividly from afar. Early to mid-April is when the flowers are at their peak, so flower enthusiasts are advised to plan their visit in advance. These trees are nearly 30 years old, each one tall and covered with dense blossoms. Recently, they’ve attracted many visitors coming to take photos.

In addition to viewing cottonflowers in Zhutang, you might also want to explore other floral attractions in Changhua, such as the cottonflower and chinaberry tree boulevards along Dongluo Stream, or the colorful sea of blooms at Tianwei Highway Garden — perfect for family trips during holidays.
