The Camellia, being the county flower of Hsinchu County, is renowned for its cold hardiness and longevity. With its elegant tree posture and charming, ever-changing flowers, it embodies a refined beauty, free from any pretentiousness. In Baoshan Township, there lies a secluded Camellia village.
The Chiu brothers of Shenjing Village have dedicated years to Camellia cultivation, boasting nearly a thousand varieties. Their Camellia bonsai and seedlings number tens of thousands.
The Chiu family Camellia garden spreads across Shenjing Village, transforming the once quiet village into a vibrant Camellia paradise. During the peak blooming season around the Lunar New Year, strolling through the garden is like being immersed in a kaleidoscope of colors - crimson, pure white, tender pink, and light orange - a dazzling spectacle that seems to overwhelm the senses. The breathtaking view is sure to leave one with a heart full of joy and an unforgettable experience.
