As spring deepens, the chionanthus—known as "April Snow"—is quietly coming into bloom in Neihu District, Taipei City. Around Zhoumei Green Space, Zhoumei Park, Anxing Green Space, and Xingshan Park, snow-white blossoms now cover the branches and drift down in the breeze like falling snow. Adding a relaxing spot for flower viewing and picnics during the Tomb Sweeping Day long weekend, these urban green spaces let visitors enjoy leisurely springtime moments with family and friends without traveling far.
Each nearby green space has its own distinct character, and they are all within a short distance of one another. Zhoumei Green Space and Zhoumei Park are tucked away in a residential neighborhood, offering a tranquil setting where visitors can stroll beneath petals floating on the wind. At Zhoumei Green Space, the lawn is also dotted with purple wood sorrel and mazus, creating a delicate sea of purple blossoms. Anxing Green Space, meanwhile, features a broad lawn that is ideal for families and pets. Spread out a picnic blanket beneath the camphor trees and enjoy the spring atmosphere up close.
The chionanthus is a native Taiwanese deciduous tree in the olive family. Blooming each year from March to April, it produces clusters of flowers that, from a distance, look like snow piled on the branches. In addition to creating a romantic landscape, the blossoms also provide nectar for birds and insects, highlighting the ecological diversity found within the city. The area is easy to reach by bus or YouBike, and visitors can also explore the Neihu commercial district and nearby cafés. While enjoying the flowers, please also help keep the environment clean and cherish this natural scenery in the heart of the city.
