May Snow doesn’t come from clouds. It
is actually Tung blossoms that fall off
Tung trees. Many of the blossoms fall and
carpet the ground. The ground looks like it
is covered in a blanket of snow.

The Hakka Tung Blossom Festival is
probably best known for its snowy
white blossoms. However, the Hakka
culture is just as interesting. After all,
the festival was inspired by it.

emphasizes cultural rooting in local
areas, refinement, profession, and art.
On the basis of the past, it may unite
Hakka culture, industries, and tourist
industries more completely.

Through the cooperative mode of “planning
from central administration, franchise from
enterprises, implement by local
administration, and community construction,”
industries and the image of Tung blossom are
associated together to develop creative ideas,
integrate resources, and lead every town and
club to hold diversified cultural and industrial
activities.
