Yehliu Geopark – Nature’s Sculpture Gallery
Your adventure begins at Yehliu Geopark, one of Taiwan’s most unique natural wonders. Shaped by wind and sea, the park features otherworldly rock formations including the famous Queen’s Head, Fairy Shoe, and Candle Rocks. Walking along the coastal paths, you’ll be surrounded by dramatic ocean views and geological marvels that make Yehliu a must-see destination.
Jiufen Old Street – A Journey Back in Time
Next, you’ll travel to Jiufen Old Street, a nostalgic mountain village overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Once a gold mining town, Jiufen is now a cultural hotspot filled with narrow alleys, red lanterns, and atmospheric tea houses. Sample street food, browse artisan shops, and take in sweeping views of the coastline. This enchanting town is often compared to scenes from the movie Spirited Away, adding to its magic.
Houtong Cat Village
Once a quiet mining town, Houtong Cat Village has transformed into a paradise for cat lovers. With hundreds of friendly felines roaming freely through alleys, bridges, and stairways, the village has become one of Taiwan’s most whimsical attractions. You can sip coffee at cat-themed cafés, browse quirky souvenir shops, and snap photos of cats lounging on rooftops or sunbathing by the train tracks. Beyond the furry residents, Houtong retains traces of its mining heritage, with tunnels and old rail lines adding a nostalgic touch. It’s a charming stop that blends Taiwan’s history with playful feline companionship — and a favorite for both families and travelers looking for something unique.
