Hsinchu Lavender Forest

#trip The perfect choice for family outings

A purple dream in the mountains

As you follow the winding mountain road towards Jianshi, the air gradually fills with the refreshing fragrance of flowers. Arriving at the Jianshi Lavender Forest in Hsinchu, it's like stepping into a fairytale wonderland—a sea of purple blossoms swaying in the breeze, their fragrance gently wafting through the sunlight, instantly making you forget the hustle and bustle of the city.

The trails are thoughtfully designed, offering breathtaking views of the valley and layers of mist along the way. The garden's cabins, mailboxes, and floral slogans exude a hipster and romantic atmosphere. We especially recommend stopping at the Forest Café for a lavender latte or floral tea, paired with a handmade dessert, while the view from the window reveals the vast sea of flowers and distant mountains.

If time permits, you can also walk to the viewing platform to watch the sunset slowly set over the mountains. The tranquility and colors of that moment are as beautiful as a painting.

🛣 Transportation Tips:
• Driving is recommended; the drive from downtown Hsinchu takes approximately one hour. • The mountain road is winding but in good condition. You can also visit Neiwan Old Street or Jianshi Hot Springs.

🌿 Tips:
• The lavender season runs from February to May each year, with slight fluctuations depending on the weather.
• The temperature difference between morning and evening is significant in the mountains, so it's recommended to bring a light jacket.
• Weekdays are less crowded, allowing you to relax and enjoy the fragrance of flowers and the mountain breeze.

💜 "When the breeze blows through the sea of lavender, all worries are transformed into soft fragrance."
