Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Gaomei Wetland is located in Taichung, with a small area. It also has muddy and sandy beaches, tidal streams, grassy marshes and other habitats. There are many kinds of biodiversity here. Every winter, a large number of migratory birds come here to escape the cold and spend the winter. It is one of the scenic spots of Gaomei Wetland. . When you arrive at Gaomei Wetland, you will see two rows of huge wind turbines. The huge blades are turning in the wind, which is very spectacular. The environment-friendly power generation mode meets the wetland landscape, and a new beauty is born unexpectedly. When the sun sets, these giants stand on the horizon and are reflected on the tidal flat water to form silhouettes, blending with the orange, pink, and purple gradient sky. The beauty can only be experienced when you come to the Gaomei Wetland. In the shallow water on the mudflat, take off your shoes and roll up your trousers and step into this silt. There is no sticky foot and no odor. Occasionally, there will be muddy water splashing on the instep, which can basically keep your feet clean. In addition to migratory birds, there are many fish, crabs and other creatures in the wetland. In the "Chaoxi Area", you can observe the birth and hatching of migratory fish. coexist. If you like cycling, you might as well ride along the Gaomei Bicycle Trail from the seawall to the wetlands. Although the lane is relatively simple, it is flat and not difficult to ride. Don't rush to leave after sunset, wait for 30 minutes Left or right, the coastal road next to the windmill will start to light up the street lights. The windmills became the protagonists again, with little yellow light extending under their feet, reflecting on the water, which is not inferior to the scenery.

A great place with great sunset view! kids would love here too with the interesting view of the habitat in the muds.
The sunset is beautiful anyway. However, I think it is difficult for tourists to go by public transportation, so chartered tours or taxis are good. There is basically nothing nearby, but there is Mitsui's outlet about 10 by car. I think it's an Instagram spot in front of the Ferris wheel there. I recommend seeing the sunset here once.
Arrived at Gaome with heavy winds. Its so cold but the amazing thing is that we’ve witnessed the windmills on their top speed. The place is clean and well maintained. Enjoyed watching birds (pelicans/ egrets, i think). Must visit!
this place is amazing with the sunset and I will say if people come to Taichung, you have to visit !
only come here during sunset timeimpressive viewlocal also will come here
It is recommended to drive or charter a car. You can start at about three o'clock from Taichung city. The road to enter is relatively small. When the weather is good, it is easy to traffic jam. You can play while eating and playing leisurely until about four o'clock. Attractions are free. You can walk slowly on the plank road. There are many Taiwanese specialty snacks opposite the wetland that you can buy and eat. There are many small crabs next to you. The wind is bigger than expected. It is recommended to wear shorts. When you walk to the plank road, you can take off your shoes and play in the water. The water is very shallow. The sunset is very beautiful, but there are many people at this time. I heard from friends who live near here that winter is colder, so if you want fewer people, you will probably come to winter. ~ The sunset is going west, accompanied by a windmill, and the reflection of the wetland .... can take a lot of beautiful photos ~~
The sunset of Gaomei Wetland is the best surprise I have ever met in Taichung. Sitting on the long seaside embankment, waiting for the sunset to slowly bloom the colorful colors, walking barefoot on the shallow beach, the mood is really happy and indescribable!
