Changhuhai Sea

A large sea of flowers is planted at the entrance of the stone forest and in the park. There are many varieties of Gesang flowers, hydrangea flowers and other flowers. Flowers are in full bloom in spring and autumn, matching the black stone pillars, making them very distinctive. Friends who like to take photos can go during the peak flowering period in October and can take many beautiful photos of the sea of flowers.

🍀Black stone sea

The strange stones in the ancient stone forest are different from those in the stone forest scenic area. They are black and look very imposing. They are also called the "Black Stone Forest". Walking through the stone forests and climbing high to the Eastern District attractions, you can enjoy the whole picture of the Naigu Stone Forest Scenic Area and the surrounding rural scenery, as well as the beautiful sea of flowers, which is worth a visit.

The Naigu Stone Forest Scenic Area is not big, and there are relatively few places to sell food. You can bring your own if you need it;
