Neem Tunnel, Natural tunnel formation in Xingang Township, Taiwan.
The Neem Tunnel is a natural passage where closely spaced neem trees intertwine their branches and leaves to form a dense canopy overhead. The path runs through this green archway, creating a cool, shaded environment for visitors to walk through.
This natural structure formed over many decades as neem trees were planted along this rural route and gradually grew taller and denser. Over time, the expanding canopy transformed a simple pathway into a distinctive green corridor.
The passage is valued by local residents as a meeting place where people escape the routine of daily life and reconnect with nature. Families often visit to spend time together beneath the leafy canopy.
The pathway is accessible via Provincial Highway 62 with parking available nearby. It is advisable to wear comfortable walking shoes as the ground can be uneven in places.
The neem trees here contain active compounds in their bark and leaves that have been used in local herbal practices for generations. Some visitors gather leaves to use them for traditional purposes.
