● Aowanda
Aowanda Scenic Area in Nantou is home to over a thousand cherry trees. Pink mountain cherry blossoms kick off the season from late January to early February, followed by vibrant double-flowered pink cherry blossoms in February, and finally the pure white Formosan cherry blossoms that appear as the season’s finale until mid-March. Recently, the most stunning cherry blossoms in Aowanda can be found at the Aowanda Sha-in (Second) Parking Lot, where double-flowered pink cherry blossoms bloom in full glory, resembling a massive pink screen—a breathtaking view many netizens have called the most beautiful parking lot in Taiwan.
