2026 Yushan National Park (玉山國家公園) Feb-May Roaming Dongpu (東埔) Ecological Lectures (17 Sessions)

As the seasons change, we have entered late winter and early spring. The weather alternates between cold and warm. Walking through the mountain forests, you will surprisingly find Taiwan cherry blossoms blooming with tiny deep pink and pink-white flowers, dotting the beauty of this season. The early spring nectar attracts many birds such as the Taiwan Yuhina (冠羽畫眉), White-eared Sibia (白耳畫眉), and Japanese White-eye (綠繡眼), playing in groups on the branches, chirping and jumping, or even performing the wonderful skill of hanging upside down to suck nectar. While appreciating the flowers, people can also enjoy the agility of these birds. Visiting Yushan National Park during this suitable time for traveling, flower viewing, and sightseeing, we believe that besides the great mountains, Dongpu (東埔) is also a great place for your trip. To allow the public to appreciate and experience the rich and diverse indigenous culture and ecological resource characteristics of the national park, the Yushan National Park Headquarters (玉管處) has specially planned the "Dongpu Series Ecological Lectures and Ecological Guided Tours" during holidays from February to May 2026. The activities combine nature, culture, and ecology. You are welcome to bring your family to walk around Dongpu and deeply enjoy the rich natural scenery and cultural heritage.\r\nLecture Topics:\r
