No need to go to Japan, the waterfront cherry blossoms in Nantou are breathtaking.

I saw the blooming waterfront cherry blossoms on the news and drove 2.5 hours from Taichung to Nantou. Even though I only visited the cherry blossom area, I felt it was worth it, especially the calm green waterway, which makes the pink cherry blossoms particularly gorgeous. 🌸 The varieties are mainly pink mountain cherry blossoms, and there are also white cherry blossoms near the hotel.
