Stroll into this serene corner of the park, and you will find yourself surrounded by four exquisite varieties of Japanese cherry blossoms: the Tairyo-zakura (Prunus lannesiana), Oh-kanzakura (P. speciosa), Shuzenjikan-zakura (P. kanzakura Rubescens), and Kawazu-zakura (P. lannesiana). These beautiful trees were generously gifted by the Japan-Taiwan Friendship Association, standing as a living symbol of cultural harmony.
Unlike Taiwan's native cherry blossoms, these Japanese varieties boast larger, more prominent petals that paint the landscape in delicate shades of pink. Beginning their bloom in mid-February, they transform the area into a soft, rosy paradise. In recent years, this meticulously nurtured sanctuary has become a favorite urban escape right in the heart of Taipei. If you’re looking to immerse yourself in an authentic, Japanese-style cherry blossom viewing experience, this enchanting spot is an absolute must-visit.
