Things to do in Yilan

Yanbo Huashijian – Yilan Traditional Arts – Located in the National Center for Traditional Arts, Yilan Traditional Arts Park. With the concept of "Overnight stay in Lanyang Arts City, strolling through ancient alleys," it allows guests to stay comfortably, play freely, and gather at the center of traditional arts, discovering the cultural and artistic traces hidden in everyday life, deeply experiencing and promoting Taiwan's traditional arts. All guest rooms are designed by Huang Sheng-yuan Architects, featuring nostalgic terrazzo floors, corridors, ponds, pavilions, and wooden chairs. Wandering freely through the rich Minnan-style architecture feels like stepping back in time to old Taiwan, leaving behind moments filled with profound cultural memories. Part 3

Bong Bong Train was very fun to ride and the weather was misty and cold. The lower and upper trail was nicely finished in the time when we waited for the train back.

Guishan Island, also known as Guishan Islet, is the largest island in Yilan County and the only active volcano in Taiwan. It is named after its turtle-like appearance. Due to its prominent terrain, Guishan Island was once listed as a military stronghold and became a controlled area for the garrison of the National Army. On August 1, 2000, Guishan Island was officially opened to tourism. The special geology has formed many spectacular views, such as the Rising Sun on Guishan Mountain, the Smoke on Guidao Island, the Stalactites in the Spectacle Cave, the Turtle Eggs, the Cliffs of Turtle Rock, the God Turtle Wearing a Hat, and the Spirit Turtle Wagging its Tail.

Recommended reason: I am studying in Yilan now. The first time I came to this place was with my father. He brought me here for the first time and drove for a long time to go home, about six hours. Actually, I miss it very much. My father worked very hard and treated me very well. I think the Dongwang steak there is delicious and affordable, but the portion is not very big (I recommend adding noodles). There is also a stall outside 711 that sells grilled squid, which is also super delicious.

Don't miss out if you love the sea and play in the water! Surfing is available on the main island of Taiwan 🏄🏽‍♀️🏄🏽‍♂️. Located in Imao, Wai Au Beach is suitable for both beginners and veterans. There are also full-day surfboard rentals + real-time surfing tutorials. Located next to the beach in Wai Au, there is a row of surf shops, about ten, by handsome men and beautiful women teach you to learn to surf, get along with the sea, feel the charm of the waves 🌊 ~

Jiaoxi Hot Springs are located in Deyang Village, Jiaoxi Township, Yilan County, on the Lanyang Plain in Taiwan Province. They are mainly distributed in the hot spring valley. The hot spring gushing area is in front of Jiaoxi Station on the Taiwan Railway Yilan Line. There are many hot spring hotels and hot spring inns from Wenquan Road in front of the station to Deyang Road on the mountainside. As soon as you exit the station, you can see the foot bath on the hot spring road. It is a great enjoyment to soak in the hot springs here in winter.

Just next to Jiaoxi transfer station There is also a parking lot along the park when you drive 🅿️ First time bringing kids here First time contacting hot springs♨️ When I first got into the water, I felt the temperature was a bit hot. Once you get used to it, you'll feel comfortable

Smooth access, friendly staff, great adventure despite the long lines for getting in and out. We were lucky enough to enjoy sunset and the night views of Taipei. The egg cake is so delicious.

You can book and use it the same day. Very easy to use, just present and they will assist you to generate physical ticket to gondola. For taipei zoo, they will just screen your qr code and no need to fall in line to the regular tix lane.

We went to Taiwan during the New Year...We took the cable car to and from Maokong Station to visit tourist attractions. It was the cherry blossom season. The cherry blossoms were super beautiful and it was a great place for family travel. We will go there again next time we have the chance. The air quality is fresh and the scenery is beautiful. We have been to Taiwan many times and still can't get enough... Looking forward to the next trip
