Once a Japanese military base and relaxing retreat for generals, the Pine Garden is now a popular cultural centre set in picturesque grounds. View art exhibitions, listen to poetry readings and relax among pine trees and other indigenous plants. The Pine Garden was originally constructed in 1942 as a Japanese military centre and resort for high-ranking officers. Located at one of the highest points in Hualien City, the site was an ideal base for monitoring air and sea traffic, with the thick pine trees providing camouflage. Wander through the attractive gardens, which once served as a relaxing place for generals to briefly escape the pressures of World War II. Your stroll will take you along pathways that gently wind through the green space. In addition to more than 200 ancient pine trees, the garden is home to other indigenous Taiwanese plants. Look for ferns, silver grass and banyan trees. There is also a pond filled with aquatic plants. Admire the views from the garden’s ocean observation deck. This picturesque viewpoint overlooks Hualien Port, the Meilun River and the Pacific Ocean. The Pine Garden is considered to be the best preserved Japanese military structure in Taiwan and consists of four buildings. The main building is predominantly a western-style edifice with a Japanese-style tiled roof. Today, it is used to host poetry readings, art exhibitions, lectures and workshops. Visit the venue’s official website to find out if any events are taking place during your visit. As you make your way around the grounds, stop at the other buildings, which include an old wooden gatehouse and a dormitory. The Pine Garden is situated in northeastern Hualien City, 2.5 miles (4 kilometres) from Hualien Station. The popular venue is open daily from morning until early evening and there is an admission fee. Nearby attractions include Meilun Coast Park. ## Plan a trip to see Pine Garden Price found within the past 48 hours.

(801 reviews) One of the best hotels we've stayed in, across many countries. The staff are so polite+friendly and helpful. Love the sweet popcorn/nougat snacks and coffee+tea bags that they provide. The rooms are very quiet, clean, spacious, modern and chic with great attention to detail. The bathroom is really big with two large basins, an extra magnified makeup mirror on the side of the wall and a shower + separate bathtub. They have a great gym. The bed is so comfortable, and the room is dark enough with blockout curtains. The hotel is also very close to a few different station entrances.
