During the Spring Festival, the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area is in full bloom with mountain cherry blossoms, while pristine white calla lilies stand tall to welcome visitors, attracting numerous flower enthusiasts every year. Another popular leisure spot, the Aoju Wetland Forest Park in Dongshi Township, is very suitable for bird-watching activities. The Alishan National Forest Recreation Area operates 24 hours a day without closing, and the Aoju Wetland Forest Park also hosts the special exhibition "Turtle's Journey: Life Everlasting" on animal conservation. In coordination with the Spring Festival, free shuttle bus services and traffic control plans are implemented, ensuring that the public can go out happily and return home safely, fully enjoying the fun of visiting Alishan and Aoju Wetland during the spring outing.

Every year during the Spring Festival holiday, the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area attracts a large number of tourists to the mountains. To reduce parking time and avoid congestion within the park,the Chiayi Forest District Administration Office has set up 7 shuttle bus pick-up points along Section 89-95 km from 8 am to 5 pm daily from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year (February 19 to February 23, 2015), providing free shuttle services to transport visitors to the main entrance of the recreation area.During the Spring Festival, in addition to temporarily marking parking spaces along the roadside of Provincial Highway 18 between kilometers 86-95 for cars and buses, 200 motorcycle parking spaces are also designated free of charge outside the main entrance of the recreation area. Due to traffic flow planning and safety considerations, motorcycles are completely restricted from entering the park during the Spring Festival.
