Ruisui Taiwan Goldenrain Tree Avenue

The road to Ruisui Hot Springs is lined with numerous trees, offering a pleasant ride with a gentle breeze. As you pass the Grand Cosmos Ruisui Resort, take a moment to admire this tree-lined avenue, adorned with Taiwan Goldenrain Trees. Against the backdrop of the resort's castle-like architecture, it feels as if you've been instantly transported to a European country estate. The Taiwan Goldenrain Trees transform with the seasons: vibrant green in spring and summer, blooming with golden-yellow flowers in early autumn, followed by leaves turning yellow and red, and finally adorned with red capsules in winter. It offers a distinct beauty throughout the year. While you're here, don't miss the wild vegetable hot pot at 'Marcado Garden Cafe' on the same road, which includes indigenous spices like Makauy (mountain pepper) and Red Prickly Ash. After a leisurely wander through the Ruisui Hot Springs and Hongye Hot Springs areas, a visit to Ruisui Ranch is highly recommended. As the origin of a famous fresh milk brand, not only does it offer free admission, but its dairy products such as nougat, cheese, milk buns, and ice cream are also incredibly popular. The vast ranch scenery and family-friendly activities are major highlights, including the chance to hand-feed cows and ostriches for a relaxing autumn afternoon.
