a glance for taoyuan

Taoyuan in Chinese means “peach blossom garden" and Taoyuan County used to be the main source of all peach blossoms in Taiwan. Even though the plant is no longer grown in the county today, Taoyuan has received international attention because of the Shihmen Reservoir, the largest reservoir in the Far East, and many visitors visit the reservoir. Over 20 million travelers arrive and depart from Taoyuan International Airport every year, making Taoyuan County the gateway to Taiwan. The airport has also given Taoyuan its reputation of being a commercial county.

The multiple cultures of the different ethnic groups in the county, beautiful natural landscape, and its reputation as the kingdom of flowers and plants qualify Taoyuan as a 100% scenic spot. The CKS Mausoleum in Cihu, the CCK Mausoleum in Touliao, the Window on China Theme Park, Mt. Jiao-ban, and the Sacred Tree Area in Mt. Daguan are the most famous attractions in the county.
