Yangmei Camphor Tree Bogong, Sacred wish tree in Yangmei, Taiwan.
The Yangmei Camphor Tree stands 25 meters tall with thick branches extending outward, creating a natural canopy over the surrounding area.
This centuries-old camphor tree dates back to early Taiwanese settlements, when these trees were valued for their wood and medicinal properties.
Local residents gather at the tree to perform traditional ceremonies, leaving offerings and written wishes tied to its branches throughout the year.
The site opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with dedicated parking spaces and benches located near the walking paths leading to the tree.
