Taipei, Jiufen, Shifen and Scenic Waterfalls
Meet your Taiwan tour guide at the agreed-upon location and visit the following sites for an authentic local experience.
Travel to the Yin Yang Sea and behold its special two-tone colour.
Continue to the Golden Waterfall. Its red backdrop comes from the sulfurous soil, and the water contains a high level of toxicity. Along the way, you may spot abandoned factories that were once built for the gold-mining industry.
Step inside Taiwan's premier international shopping destination, featuring luxury goods, fashion, and fine dining at Taipei 101.
Reach the observation floor, which offers visitors commanding views of the city and the Taipei Basin in every direction. The world's largest damper, weighing 660 metric tons, is also exhibited at this level.
Roam around Jiufen, a unique immigrant village that was isolated during the Qing dynasty. This place is also famous for taro balls, fish balls, and rice cakes. You can rest in a teahouse and taste the delicacies of Jiufen.
Behold Shifen Waterfall. If you visit in summer, you can enjoy the cool water and refreshing mountain air.
Walk the trail near Shifen Waterfall. As you enter the forest, you will be bathed in relaxation and tranquillity.
Admire the Japanese-style architecture and its rare wooden station in Taiwan. Its vintage appearance is filled with a sense of history and is perfect for photographs.
See the one and only "Sky Lantern Police Station" nearby, the wish-making bamboo tube, and the "Railway Story House," which should not be missed by railway enthusiasts.
Explore the Pingxi area, which once grew rich through mining.
