The ground along Hualien County Route 193 is covered with yellow petals, which are the result of the "golden rain" created by the golden shower trees as their blossoms fall after being blown by the wind. The East Rift Valley National Scenic Area Administration recently shared photos of the blooming golden shower trees on its fan page. The beauty is formed as the brittle branches of these trees sway and shed their petals in the wind.
