From Travel in Taiwan magazine 2018-5-6:
Tainan Judicial Museum
The Tainan Judicial Museum (No. 307, Sec. 1, Fuqian Rd., West Central Dist.; Chinese) complex, inaugurated as the Taiwan District Court in 1914, is considered one of Taiwan’s three supreme Japanese-era works of architecture.
Blueprint Culture and Creative Park
This is a narrow-lane complex of renovated simple, cement-walled dormitories originally built by the Japanese to house judicial-authority employees. The dorm buildings are today home to an attractive cluster of artisanal outlets and creative eateries.
Little Secret
The “hidden-away” Little Secret (No. 17, Ln. 689, Sec. 1, Ximen Rd., South Dist.; restaurant is the go-to foodie haunt here. The emphasis is on bringing cultural-creative flourishes to familiar Taiwanese noodle classics, each dish celebrating a regional icon ingredient.
Old Taiwan Magistrate Residence
The Old Taiwan Magistrate Residence (No. 1, Weimin Street, East Dist.; built in 1900, was used as a residence by visiting Japanese royals, most notably the future Emperor Hirohito during his 1923 grand Taiwan inspection.
The Place Tainan
This new boutique hotel is situated at one end of a monstrous block-style retail/entertainment/leisure complex. The contemporary-décor hotel has minimalist-theme guestrooms with strong black and white schemes.
Lin Mo-Niang Park
Overlooking the south side of Anping Harbor is a giant 16m-high hilltop statue of Lin Mo-Niang located in the breezy Lin Mo-Niang Park. Lin was the young mortal maiden who became the immortal Mazu, Goddess of the Sea, protector of seafarers.
Eternal Golden Castle
This “castle,” actually a fort (No. 3, Guangzhou Rd., Anping Dist.), was built by the Chinese in the 1870s as protection against grasping colonial powers. Massive bastions are found at the ends of the four high, thick walls, with a moat making enemy access even more difficult.
Taijiang National Park Visitor Center
Taijiang National Park ( is a watery world of estuaries, sandbars, tidal flats, old irrigation canals and small-craft shipping channels, mangrove swamps, wetlands, and aquaculture farms. The white-walled buildings of the visitor complex, built on stilts above retired fish farms, resemble traditional fishermen dwellings and circle a faux “lagoon.”
Anping Fort
This stronghold, originally called Fort Zeelandia, was built at the north-end head of a great sometimes sandbar/sometimes silt island (at high tide) that jutted out from the mainland.
Anping Tree House
Old Tait & Company Merchant House (No. 108, Gubao St., Anping Dist.) and, directly behind, the Anping Tree House, were both built by a British trading firm after the Second Opium War forced China to open ports to Western trade in 1858. The treehouse, originally conjoined warehouses, has been completely overrun by massive banyan trees, creating a fairytale maze.
Chou’s Shrimp Rolls
This restaurant (No. 125 Anping Street, Anping Dist.) is one of the best restaurants in Anping serving shrimp rolls, a local the delicacy.
Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Fields
Just south of the fishing village of Beimen are the Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Fields, Taiwan’s oldest salt fields, created in 1818. This site is a showcase example of how the bottom of evaporation ponds were paved with pottery shards, producing cleaner salt and making harvesting easier.
🌦️⛰️😊TAROKO GORGE -- Baiyang Trail (太魯閣--白楊步道)
At the western end of Taroko Gorge is the tiny village of Tianxiang where we stayed a night at the Silks Place Taroko. The next day we walked the scenic Baiyang Trail.

From Travel in Taiwan magazine 2018-7-8:
Silks Place Taroko
A sumptuous place to spend a Taroko Gorge night is at the refined Silks Place Taroko hotel, where dark-stain wood is the dominant interior theme, smartly complementing the marble-white facade. It’s located at the edge of Tianxiang on a picturesque perch – atop the low-plateau point where the Liwu and Dasha rivers meet before the combined waters rush through the inner gorge for more forceful rock-sculpting. The riverbed here is strewn with massive boulders of widely differing striated artwork – including one of pure marble – and macaques make their way down the steep wooded slopes for a drink in the morning. Though deep in a gorge that is a Mother Nature aesthetic tour de force, a stay at this hotel is time spent in the lap of manmade luxury.
The range of amenities and special activities is too sweeping to cover fully, but a number stand out. There is a full spa, along with two superb pools, one indoor and one outdoor. The latter is on the roof, beside it a Jacuzzi, with both offering a wonderful 360-degree panorama. Indoor and outdoor activities oriented toward both kids and adults are offered. Of special note are the guided tours, Truku-theme weaving sessions, nighttime indigenous dance shows in the lovely inner courtyard and mini-concerts by the rooftop poolside fireplace, and Moonlight Cinema showings by the rooftop pool, with patio loungers as seating.
The restaurant dinner and breakfast buffets have a delicious range of international and Chinese choices, and Retreat Floor (VIP) guests can choose to take breakfast in the sun-drenched rooftop Retreat Lounge, with Eastern/Western set meals. (Rooms, all very large, start at NT$8,000)
Silks Place Taroko (太魯閣晶英酒店)
Add: No. 18, Tianxiang Rd., Xiulin Township, Hualien County
(花蓮縣秀林鄉天祥路18號)
Tel: (03) 869-1155

Baiyang Trail
The Baiyang Trail begins with a dramatic human-engineering flourish. You dive directly from the roadside into a straight-as-an-arrow 380m-long tunnel (bring a flashlight!) that pierces a mountain from the main gorge to a secondary gorge. At the end of the even-grade 2km section of the trail is a golden prize, which bursts into view upon exiting a tunnel. At a footbridge leaping a deep-cut cleft carved by a waterway seemingly too modest for the task, a lofty twin cataract plunges ethereally downward from vertigo-inducing heights. The trail was constructed as a narrow cliff-hugging road by the Taiwan Power Company in 1984 for use in a later-cancelled hydropower project. There is in fact a further section beyond the present trail, currently closed for safety reasons.

Onsen Papawaqa
The Onsen Papawaqa is a forceful work of modernist architecture directly overlooking the Wenshui riverbed. Its grey-hue exposed-concrete exterior walls, proudly and boldly showcased, echo the colors of the exposed cliff rock on the valley’s opposite side. Inside, two additional interior-décor elements are wood and stone, also chosen to echo the surrounding natural environment.
The key attraction here is, of course, the mineral-water soaking. Each room faces the river through floor-to-ceiling glass, with a window-side Japanese-style in-floor stone-slab tub. “The extensive public-area spa facilities are outside the main building; there are separate nude bathing areas for males and females, a non-nude mixed bathing area, and a wonderful cool-temperature narrow swimming pool that runs the entire main building’s length between building and riverside bluff-edge.” The evening starry-sky viewing is scintillating. In the midst of all this is a friendly, breezy thatch-roof open-air bar.
Both restaurants, on the 5th and 6th floors (the top floors), have eyrie-like views of the river before and mountain behind. The complimentary Chinese/Western buffet breakfast is taken in the 5th-floor Running Water Restaurant, which has a laddered spatial design evoking the river’s cascading waters. Lunch and dinner are served in the 6th-floor Flying Cloud Restaurant; the cuisine is Chinese, with strong Hakka and indigenous infusions, along with Western elements. Locally sourced ingredients are stressed. The Dongpo pork and sesame-oil chicken are especially good. (Rooms start at NT$7,500)
Gazing east from the Taiwan Hakka Museum, you can look down into the valley below and out over the hills toward the central mountains beyond. Just to the south, you’ll see row upon row of neatly spaced tea bushes. This is part of the 30ha tourist-oriented Tongluo Tea Factory operation. It’s centered on a factory/retail building of eye-catching modern design that offers a picture-perfect panorama of the valley through its east-side glass wall. Trains regularly run through the valley, through what looks like a model-train set. Patrons are helped in their train-spotting via a large signboard with run-through times and train types.
The main type of tea grown here is Dongfang Meiren (Oriental Beauty), which is primarily grown in Hakka areas in the hills of the northwest at lower altitudes (300~800m). Visitors can enjoy tea-tasting sessions, tours of the processing facilities and fields (in one interesting section, each row is dedicated to a single type of Taiwan-grown tea, with English signage), DIY picking for tour groups, and a meal. The latter consists of a traditional type of biandang (boxed lunch) eaten by Hakka tea-pickers and railroad workers. This comes wrapped in a gratis traditional bright-color Hakka-style head kerchief worn by female tea-pickers (separate payment for each option).

South Coast
Between the Maobitou peninsula on the west and Eluanbi peninsula on the east, this is Kenting’s most popular tourist area, with a high concentration of beaches and resorts as well as restaurants, bars, cafes, and boutiques.
Nanwan, or South Bay, is in the crook where Maobitou and the main body of the Hengchun Peninula meet. This is the best and most popular locale for inshore frolicking—swimming, windsurfing, jet-skiing, kayaking, banana-boating, skin-diving, snorkeling, what have you. There are change rooms, showers, and shops renting all necessary gear/toys. Adding to Nanwan’s allure is the fact it is second only to nearby Kending town, which we visit next, for restaurants and watering holes.
Kending is fun-central in the park. This is where all the action happens at night. Highway 26 does double-duty as the town’s main street, and as the sun retires over the western horizon each day local residents don vendors’ hats and line both sides with food stalls. Backing them are scores of bricks-and-mortar enticements, with everything from cafes, bars, and restaurants to indie-designer jewelry and crafts shops. On the town’s eastern edge are some especially entertaining sights – small lorries which, once the shutters on the back cabins are lowered, magically become bars and pizzerias. Owners set up seating alongside. The former are stocked to “the rafters” with famous spirits brands, and the latter have flatbed-mounted brick pizza ovens.
Off Kending’s eastern end, in a pretty sheltered cove, is the Xiaowan (“Small Bay”) beach, directly across Highway 26 from two of the park’s resort-hotel queens, one of these the Howard Beach Resort (see Box). During the day a wide range of watersports equipment is available for rent at the beach. At night, after the water-focused fun ceases, the wide-deck wood-theme café/eatery here transforms into a mellow open-air bar, ’70s rock complementing the soothing music of arriving waves.
East of Kending is Banana Bay, site of a miniscule fishing harbor. On either side of its cement breakwater walls is easily accessible upraised-coral shoreline, beyond which is an underwater world popular with divers.
Nearby iconic park attractions are Shadao and Sail Rock. The first is a magnificent 300m stretch of protected beach that actually shines. In the on-site exhibition hall, it’s said this is Taiwan’s purest shell-sand; the coast makes a dramatic 90-degree turn here, meaning materials are washed in and churned but not easily washed out. Sail Rock is a towering 18m-high slab of exposed coral offshore said either to resemble a Chinese imperial war junk or US President Richard Nixon’s profile. But what I see is a Kenting angelfish.

Forests, Flowers, and Waterfalls
Text: Rick Charette
Sun-Link-Sea
A “forest and nature resort,” a privately operated getaway idyll (NT$250 entry fee).
At the upper end of the resort road is at Songlong Rock Waterfall. At the base of a Cinemascope-wide semi-circular cliff is a large, deep green lagoon busy with fish in the water and eye-catching birds above. Two massive mid-lagoon boulders are covered completely with vegetation, trees “impossibly” growing atop their solid-rock bed. The cliff’s base is “gone,” to a height of 30 meters and a depth of 30, a cave now where once soft sandstone was emplaced. A paved pathway takes you along the cliff base and through the gaping hole, and you emerge directly before the waterfall itself, at its base.

Between Sun-Link-Sea and Xitou – Wangyou Forest
Beside County Road 95, a few kilometers from Sun-Link-Sea, you’ll see a large “Wangyou Forest” sign From there, a narrow road leaps up past tea fields, tilted at startling angles. Take the 15-minute huff-and-puff walk up to the forest-entrance path (NT$50 entry), or use one of the privately-operated shuttle vans (NT$200 return). Wangyou Forest is a section of tall-pine forest drowned when the creek that gurgles through was blocked by Taiwan’s infamous 921 Earthquake in 1999.
Le Midi Hotel Chitou
This is a veritable high-mountain hideaway oasis of regal splendor amidst a world of tall trees and rugged mountains. The owners are avid hunters of European-nobility antiques, and eager to show them off. In the lobby and other areas you are regaled with imperial-French furniture, clocks, and other curios collected on hunting forays in Europe. The guestrooms are all spacious and tastefully appointed in modernistic continental European style, with bright nature-evocative green, white, and brown tones predominant. Room rates start at NT$11,000; one dinner and breakfast included

Xiaobantian Bridge
Opened in 2014, this is mountainous Nantou County’s highest extradosed bridge, its roadbed 60 meters up from the valley floor. Its soaring grey towers are shaped like giant bamboo stalks, just like Taipei’s famed Taipei 101 tower. Xiaobantian is home to numerous fetching waterfalls, Dexing Waterfall perhaps the best-known. On the higher reaches of a boulder-strewn Beishi River tributary stream, it has two sections, the upper, 30m high, has carved a cool, calm pool at its base perfect for wading.
Sky Ladder Scenic Area (NT$50 adults)
A well-maintained trail brings you down, down, relentlessly down to the bottom of Taiji Gorge. Moving through thick bamboo forest, among your gorge-bottom rewards will be the Sky Ladder – a suspension-bridge engineering marvel – a sheer-cliff cave-dwelling Earth God temple below it, and Qinglong Waterfall.
BeYoung Garden
On the second floor of a still-operating small inter-town bus station that looks like a set for a 1950s period movie. “Zhushan” literally means “Bamboo Mountain”; the area is renowned for bamboo cultivation and products, bamboo is a key restaurant decorative material, and the chefs make edible bamboo a prominent ingredient. Specially recommended: the “three-cups mushroom bitter-tea range chicken” and “dried bamboo with soy-braised pork” set meals.

☀️💮 😊TAICHUNG CITY Coastal Areas (台中海岸線)
Went on a 2-day trip to Taichung's coastal areas, the districts west of the city's urban center, including Wuq, Shalu, and Qingshui. Quite a few interesting places. I liked the Gaomei Wetlands best. :)

Old Dajia Town
Inform any Taiwan citizen you’ve been to Dajia and you’ll be asked if you visited Dajia Zhenlan Temple, Dajia’s key attraction. Taiwan, an island nation, venerates Mazu – the Goddess of the Sea -- like no other deity. She is worshiped at almost 900 temples. Zhenlan Temple, which dates to the 1700s, is among the most famous and powerful, and the annual Dajia Mazu Pilgrimage is the best-known event celebrating her springtime birthday.
All around Dajia Zhenlan Temple are eateries of venerable pedigree that have long been satisfying the needs of pilgrims – and locals – who have come to the temple to fulfill their spiritual needs. Dajia Ma Mianxian (“Dajia Mom Rice Noodles”; 127 Jianggong Rd. / 蔣公路127號), just a minute away on foot, is specially recommended.
The Taichung region has also long been known for high-quality traditional weaving crafts. Visit Dajia’s very last traditional straw-hat shop, Sanyang Mao Di Hang (“Sanyang Hat and Mat Shop”; 48 Jiangong Rd./ 48 建功路), a short walk from Zhenlan Temple.
Gaomei Wetlands
The Gaomei Wetlands, 3000 hectares in area with a seawall stretching 3.5 kilometers facing the Taiwan Strait, is a popular birdwatching hotspot. Members of over 120 species reside here, among the most conspicuous from the heron, ibis, heron, goose, and godwit families.
A long, meandering boardwalk brings you far out into the wetlands, beyond the sedge-grass marsh out into the intertidal zone, putting you just a few feet above the teeming world of busy fiddler crabs, mudskippers, and other tiny local denizens. The birds swoop in when the tide is out, feasting on the exposed buffet. When the tide is out, visitors are permitted to step off the end of the boardwalk in the intertidal zone, where the footing is comparatively firm and the mud thickness limited, to explore the animal goings-on on the mudflats.
Wuqi Fishing Harbor
Wuqi Fishing Harbor is just off the north end of massive Taichung Port. The latter is busy with much, much larger craft. The former’s different draws are enjoyed at varying times of the day.
There’s a lively, raucous daily fish-auction market. Most boats come in during the one or two hours before sunrise, and the scene is cacophonous, to say the least, and photo-captivating. If not a night-prowler, fret not; individual craft continually chug-a-lug in during the day, knowing local buyers punctually appearing right to provide you with unposed photo opps among the weary sailor folk.
Qingshui District
For even better views over the coastal region, head higher up Aofeng Hill to the park area immediately beyond, where two visually enticing architectural works await, Aofeng Jade Bridge and, higher still along the park’s pleasing pathway, Aofeng Hill Viewing Platform. The former is a curving waterway-leaping pedestrian bridge shaped auspiciously like a jade piece, bringing good fengshui. The latter is perhaps the coastal area’s best spot for sunsets and star-viewing.
Nearby, back down on the coastal plain, is the heritage-status Zhao Family Ancestral Residence (476 Zhongshan Rd. /中山路476號), a lyrically pretty traditional courtyard-style residential complex with the green slopes of the mountain spur at its back. Built in the late Qing Dynasty in the old south China style brought over by the ancestors of the Taiwanese, before it is a large pond.

Trip to Xitou Natural Educational Area, Nantou, Taiwan
Sitou is located in the Phoenix hill of Lugu village, and is embraced by mountains from three sides. Its name is derived from the Chinese meaning: the origin of the river (Bei-Shi River). Sitou has plenty of rains, and is cool and moist all the year round. Therefore, it is one of the most famous resort spots in summer and the most romantic place for new couples to spend their honeymoons. Sitou is part of the experimental forest belonging to the National Taiwan University, and here grows cedars, Chamaecyparis obtuse, red spruces , Phyllostachys edulis, and many other different kinds of trees. Except for a small well-preserved natural broad-leaves forest, most parts of this area have been developed and cultivated purposely. Generally speaking, the feature of the forest here is beautiful and tidy. Here you can visit the unique pure Ginkgo forest, the rare plant of redwood, the divine tree 46 meter high and 16 meter broad and with an age approaching 3,000, Youth's Activity Center, birds observing footpath, hotels, restaurants, camping area and so on. The University Pond, one of the representative sightseeing spots in Sitou, with an area of 0.5 chings and a depth of 10 meters, has limpid water and is a good place for taking pictures. There are over 7,000 varies of birds available in Sitou, which makes this place a good one for birds observing. River Blacks, White-ears Thrush, Redhead Warblers, Shao-Yen Thrush are representatives of low and middle elevation in Taiwan. Buildings in Shi-To are made of wood and have a smell of natural harmony.
無雷！茶葉入菜好好吃！自家野菜超嫩料理！｜南投。鹿谷。阿三全筍餐館
一早約六點半出發前往溪頭森林遊樂區走走，中午從溪頭下來鹿谷阿三全筍餐館享用美味午餐，再回家睡午覺。這行程很適合中部地區有老有小的一日遊唷！若非中部地區的大家，也可結合附近景點，好好享受南投風光。
انطلقت إلى منطقة Xitou Forest الترفيهية في حوالي الساعة 6:30 صباحا. في الظهيرة، نزلت من Xitou إلى مطعم Lugu Asanquan bamboo shoot لتناول غداء لذيذ، ثم عدت إلى المنزل لأخذ قيلولة. هذه الرحلة مناسبة جدا لرحلة نهارية في المنطقة الوسطى! إذا لم تكن في المنطقة الوسطى، فيمكنك أيضا الجمع بين مناطق الجذب القريبة والاستمتاع بمناظر نانتو.
朝6時半頃に出発して渓頭森林遊楽区に行って、昼に渓頭から鹿谷阿三全筍レストランで美味しい昼食を食べてから家に帰って昼寝をします。この行程は中部地区に古くて小さい日帰り旅行にぴったりですね！中部地域の皆さんでなければ、近くの観光地と合わせて南投の風景を楽しむことができます。
I set out for the Xitou Forest Recreation Area at about 6:30 in the morning. At noon, I came down from Xitou to Lugu Asanquan bamboo shoot restaurant for a delicious lunch, and then went home to take a nap. This trip is very suitable for a day trip in the central region! If you are not in the central region, you can also combine the nearby attractions and enjoy the scenery of Nantou.
Salí hacia el Área de Recreación Forestal de Xitou alrededor de las 6:30 de la mañana. Al mediodía, bajé de Xitou al restaurante de brotes de bambú Lugu Asanquan para un delicioso almuerzo, y luego fui a casa a tomar una siesta. ¡Este viaje es muy adecuado para una excursión de un día a la región central! Si no estás en la región central, también puedes combinar las atracciones cercanas y disfrutar del paisaje de Nantou.
Je suis parti pour la zone de loisirs forestier de Xitou vers 6h30. À midi, je suis descendu de Xitou au restaurant de pousses de bambou Lugu Asanquan pour un délicieux déjeuner, puis je suis rentré chez moi pour faire une sieste. Ce voyage est idéal pour une excursion d’une journée dans la région centrale ! Si vous n‘êtes pas dans la région centrale, vous pouvez également combiner les attractions à proximité et profiter du paysage de Nantou.

台灣旅遊, 享受森林的芬多精, 溪頭自然教育園區, 南投, 台灣. 如何搭公車去?
Xitou Nature Education Park ( Xitou Forest Recreation Area) is also Forest Experimental Zone belonging to the Department of Forestry of National Taiwan University. The most famous spot in this park is the giant red cypress tree (Chamaecyparis formosensis). According to the research, this tree is over 1500 years old. Unfortunately, it collapsed because of a serious typhoon(hurricane) in 2016.
In this park, we can find many younger red cypress trees(Chamaecyparis formosensis). They are all artificially planted. That is because the mostly elder red cypress trees in the time of governed by Japan had almost been cut off.
Red cypress trees(Chamaecyparis formosensis) is the natural building and furniture materials. It has a natural aroma and is not easily eaten by borers. Japanese people particularly like this kind of wood. We can find Japanese architectural styles and interiors, most of which are made of this kind of wood.
The so-called forest is a large area of red cypress, cedar, ginkgo, Mengzong bamboo, and other ferns and plants. Of course, there are natural streams. Xitou is the transliteration of Chinese. It means the source of the stream.
Xitou Nature Education Park is located in Lugu Township, Nantou County, at an altitude of more than 1500 meters, with a total area of about 2500 hectares. In this forest, there are many artificial trails, and some driveways. The car is not allowed to enter unless you check in in the park. There are some Chalets as hostel. The cost for one person is at NTD2000.
Please don't deviate from the trail, and follow the directions on the map to get to the scenic spots and the location of the exit of the walkway. This park has two entrances and exits, which are located in the first and second parking lots, respectively. There is a ticket counter at the entrance. Normal adult fares are NTD200. There will be preferential fares for other ages. For example, if you are a student, please bring a student ID, there will be preferential fares. Concessionary fares are also available for seniors over 65. The opening hours of the park are at AM7:00-PM:5:00. There is a free map paper at the entrance check place.
Xitou is a famous scenic recreation area in Taiwan. There are natural negative ions and high oxygen content. This is a great place to treat cells. The number of people who enter the park every day is estimated to be more than 1,000. Many of these are activities for retired elderly groups and youth groups. There are also many families traveling together. In the summer, people like to be there to escape the summer heat and also to enjoy the fendol essence in the forest.
The second famous spot in Xitou Nature Education Park is University Pool. There is an arch bridge. There is an air corridor in the forest. There are also game area and rest area. Although there are sales departments in the park, people like to bring their own food and drink for a picnic.
One person cannot walk the entire park in one day, you can choose accommodation. There is a Monster Village next to the second parking lot in Xitou, which is a place for people to stay and eat. There are many street foods.
You can also choose to camp. Above the first parking lot, there is a private camping area, the entrance fee is NTD600 per person. Bath once NTD60. You can also park for camping. There is a business district nearby. Eating is not a problem.
Most people choose to drive by themselves, take a tour bus, or charter to Xitou. You can also choose to take a bus to Xitou. How to take a bus to Xitou?
Go downstairs in the Taichung High Speed Rail Hall to EXIT No. 5. Tell the service staff at the Nantou passenger transport counter to go to Xitou, they will give you a number plate, the service staff will call the number to get on the bus after the bus enters the station. If the car is full, you must wait for the next bus. There is usually a bus every 10 minutes in the morning. Bus Stop Sign is number 2.
Xitou Bus Station is in front of the second parking lot in Xitou Nature Park. You will get off here. In the same way, this is where you will get on the return journey. When taking a bus, the public usually uses an electronic ticket to sense the card swipe machine and let it deduct money automatically. You must get on and off to swipe your card. For the return schedule, you can refer to Taiwan Good Travel (To Taichung High Speed Rail) No. 6883 on the wall. The last two bus times are PM4:50 and PM5:20.
In Xitou, you can see and research a lot of natural ecology, including monkey, squirrel, birds. There are occasional showers here, please remember to bring rain gear and pay attention to the slippery trails. May you have a pleasant travel in Taiwan.
