After the season of plum blossom is over, famers begin to pick plums to prepare special plum dishes that are very delicious. When night falls, you can plan a summer rendezvous with glowing fireflies.
The winter plum blossom in Meiling is not only a feast for the eyes, but also an opportunity for hiking in winter. Since the plum trees are planted in different sites, you have to walk several trails to visit all of the proudly blooming plum flowers in Meiling. In recent years, local farmers have stopped using herbicides to let plum trees grow in the more natural environment and provide the fireflies with the more favorable habitat. Meiling’s advantageous environment can thus be better preserved, giving more people the chance to marvel at the ecological richness of Meiling.
