Cherry blossom under blue skies in New Taipei’s Xizhi District. This week’s post covers Fulongshan Trail, a short and sweet walk in New Taipei’s Wugu District, which (in a couple of weeks’ time) should be looking pretty in pink. Happy faces all round.

Note: Taiwan Trails and Tales has been going for over eight years now, so there are a fair few dead links and bits of information that need updating on the site. If you find one, I would greatly appreciate it if you let me know either by commenting on that post or by dropping me a line in the contact form (on the "About" page) so that I can remove or update it.
