Nose-High Flower Viewing Hill is a nature-rich spot where you can enjoy seasonal flowers throughout the year, but the highlights are the "Rapeseed Flower Festival" (mid-April to early May) and the "Cosmos Festival" (mid-September to mid-October). During the Rapeseed Flower Festival, vibrant yellow rapeseed flowers blanket the entire hill, creating a beautiful landscape that resembles a carpet bathed in spring sunshine. On clear days, the vivid contrast with the blue sky makes it perfect for strolling and photography. During the Cosmos Festival, colorful cosmos bloom and sway in the autumn breeze, creating a peaceful atmosphere. From the observation deck, you can enjoy not only the expansive flower fields but also panoramic views of distant mountains, making for a truly special experience. Both festivals sometimes feature events where you can enjoy local specialties and light snacks, allowing you to savor not just the flowers but also the charm of the region. It's the perfect spot for outings with family and friends!
