Dongyanshan National Forest Recreation Area

The name of “Dongyanshan” in Dongyanshan National Forest Recreation Area means a “big eye staring at the east” which is what it looks like when looking from Amouping at Shimen Reservoir at sunrise. The park features million-year old geological landscapes, plentiful bird species, insects and mammals, including the Formosan hare (Lepus sinensis ) and the Formosan white-headed flying squirrel (Petaurista alborufus lena), along with the boundless tree sea of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica). It is a relaxing experience to walk through the Japanese cedar forest in the fog then climb up to the top to enjoy the view of the region from Taoyuan to greater Taipei.

Hutou Mountain Park / Hutoushan Park

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

Hutou Mountain Park is a highlight of Taoyuan city. The park is quite rugged, but has hiking trails. There is a Confucian academy; the park also has a traditional temple where a number of gods are worshipped. My brother-in-law took us there in his car; transport is not always convenient.
