As autumn and winter gradually set in and the weather turns cooler, in addition to the must-see blooming flower seas of summer, there are also stunning flower tunnels to admire in these cooler months. Located along Jiancheng Road in Huwei, Yunlin, a profusion of Poinciana trees burst into pink blooms each fall, creating vast, vibrant flower seas that resemble cherry blossoms in full bloom, giving the illusion that spring has arrived early.

When in bloom, Poinciana trees put on a magnificent display with their numerous and vivid flowers, primarily in purplish-red or light pink hues, earning them the nickname "beauty cherry blossoms." The flowering season typically runs from autumn to early winter, with each tree producing up to 5,000 to 6,000 blossoms. The spectacular sight of thousands of blooms has made this a popular spot for social media check-ins.
