Popular photo spots

In the above recommended flower viewing routes, several photo spots are particularly popular, because in addition to the very lush miscanthus, with the excellent mountain and lake views of the photo spots, it adds more autumnal flavor to the photos:

The whole family can enjoy flowers easily-Qixingshan Trail

This photo spot is the first time people who go up the mountain to enjoy the flowers will definitely go, because the Qixing Mountain trail is flat and easy to walk and the photo spot is located near the parking lot. Entering from the Lengshuikeng mountaineering entrance about 0.3KM ~ 0.6KM, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery. The dense sea of Miscanthus is submerged, so it is also very suitable for families with old and small inconveniences for flower viewing!

Double enjoyment of flower viewing and climbing-Qixingshan Mountain

If you have a better footpath and plenty of time, it is highly recommended to go to Qixingshan Mountain and enjoy the flowers while enjoying the climbing process. Moreover, unlike other low-altitude photo spots, you can overlook the entire mountain from the top of the vast mountain. If you want to take a beautiful photo of Miscanthus sylvestris that are different from others, you must take the top spot!

The most dreamy flower lake view on the entire hill-Dream Lake

If you can only choose one photo spot to enjoy the flowers, then Dream Lake should be the first choice for many people, because Miscanthus is beautiful when paired with the lake. Although Dream Lake is only about 0.3 hectares, the lake is prone to fog due to the terrain and humidity. Coupled with the abundant native plants and aquatic insects by the lake, the simple flower viewing is as fulfilling as an ecological trip!

Flower viewing tips

1. If you want to avoid crowds during the blooming season, it is recommended to go out early to filter out many tourists who are taking photos with their cards.

2. There are few shelters on the mountain. If you don't want to get sunburned or squint your eyes in every photo, it is recommended to bring a sun hat or sunglasses. In addition to sunshade, it can also be used as a decoration for taking pictures.

3. If you encounter a warning sign of "Careful Pass in Collapsed Area" on the hiking trail, please do not stay for a long time and pass quickly.

4. Please keep a distance while taking pictures, do not manually create a swaying feeling or pick Miscanthus arbitrarily!
