Upon entering the Wushantou Reservoir in Tainan, pink eight-petaled cherry blossoms are in full bloom in the cherry blossom park. There are also nearly 100 southern ylang trees, each over 80 years old, lining the Champs-Élysées. These trees were personally planted by Yoichi Hatta and his wife. Now towering and majestic, they sway gently in the breeze, seemingly waving hello to flower-viewing visitors. The breathtaking scenery inspires visitors to capture the moment, competing to take photos with the beautiful blossoms.
