Hsinchu Park (新竹公園)
Cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so we also decided to visit Hsinchu Park, where numerous cherry trees are planted. They have different varieties of trees, most of which were already in full bloom. We also noticed some newly planted trees in the area. Due to the holiday, the park was very crowded today.
Shibajianshan (十八尖山)
We also made a visit to ShibaJian Shan (18 peak mountain) located in the East District of Hsinchu City. ShibaJian Shan has a long history and has been transformed into a forest park. In 1927, during the Japanese rule, this mountain was planned to become a forest park called Dongshan Park. However, during World War II, the park was closed, and fortresses and military tunnels were constructed by the Japanese. After Taiwan's recovery, ShibaJian Shan became a military area with numerous military facilities established by the Ministry of National Defense. Tourists were prohibited from entering, but the natural beauty of the mountain was preserved.
With the development of Hsinchu City, the mountain eventually came under the jurisdiction of the local government. ShibaJian Shan was reopened as a forest park. As the name suggests, ShibaJian Shan has 18 peaks, with the highest peak reaching 131 meters above sea level and the lowest at 50 meters. The mountain stretches for about 7-8 kilometers. Early March marks the flowering season in this mountain park, where you can enjoy cherry blossoms and other types of flowers, such as kapok and osmanthus. The park also provides several resting areas and drinking water facilities.
