66 locations where cherry blossoms or in Japanese “Sakura” can be found in Taiwan.
On his website goteamjosh, Ellis posted a Google map which includes the geographic location and the name in English and Chinese where Sakura cherry blossoms can be found in various locations around Taiwan. The map includes violet-colored flowers, which symbolize locations where cherry blossoms can be seen and include a brief description of the locale, and yellow hearts, which mark his favorite cherry blossom viewing locations.
