In addition to the three existing firefly viewing trails, Labiniya（拉比尼亞）, Dakanuwa（達卡努瓦）, and Mashingharan（瑪星哈蘭）, a new trail named Nanshalu Trail（南沙魯步道）will open this year, but only on weekends. On weekends, expert guides can accompany visitors along the trails and share fascinating facts about the fireflies. It is a truly captivating natural experience.

During firefly season, local markets in the villages of Maya and Dakanuwa are open from Friday to Sunday. These markets offer guests a wide array of offerings, such as regional agricultural products, barbecued treats, and indigenous crafts. April and May also mark the peak harvest months for Namasia’s peaches, renowned for their delicate skin, fine texture, and rich fragrance. Tourists not only get an opportunity to experience the fireflies but can also enjoy Namasia’s local products and culinary delights.
