Yehliu Geopark + Shifen Old Street + Jinguashih + Jiufen Old Street private chartered tour [departing from Taipei]

▲ Yehliu Geopark: Located on a cape formed by the Datun Mountain range extending into the sea, its turtle-like shape earned it the nickname "Yehliu Turtle." Shaped by wave erosion, rock weathering, and crustal movements, the park features stunning formations like sea caves, candle-shaped rocks, mushroom rocks, and tofu rocks. Internationally renowned attractions include the Queen's Head, Fairy Shoe, and Candle Stand Rock. The "flame" of the Candle Stand Rock is formed by hard nodules, surrounded by naturally carved ring-shaped grooves. Yehliu is not only a famous tourist destination in Taiwan but also a natural classroom for geological wonders, showcasing the awe-inspiring power of nature!

▲ Shifen Old Street: Located in Pingxi District, New Taipei City, this charming town stretches along the Keelung River Valley following the Pingxi Railway Line. The unique integration of train tracks with the old street creates the novel experience of "trains passing by your doorstep," attracting numerous film productions. Though coal mining has ceased, the old street remains vibrant with popular snack shops and sky lantern craft stores. Visitors can write postcards with the phrase "Perfect Happiness" or pen their wishes on colorful sky lanterns, with shop owners guiding the lantern release and assisting with photography. Releasing sky lanterns to send blessings while soaking in the town's rustic charm makes this a beloved destination for international travelers!

▲ Shifen Waterfall: A famous waterfall and gorge view in Taiwan. With a drop of about 20 meters and a width of approximately 40 meters, it's a counter-tilted waterfall resembling North America's Niagara Falls, earning it the nickname "Taiwan's Niagara Falls." The deep pool below is often shrouded in mist, creating frequent rainbows under sunlight refraction, hence its alternate name "Rainbow Abyss." Surrounded by unique rock formations and towering boulders, the area showcases nature's breathtaking craftsmanship, making it a must-visit attraction for visitors!

▲ Jinguashih Jinguashih is a golden mountain town in northern Taiwan, surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea. It once thrived due to gold mining in its early days but gradually returned to tranquility as the ore veins depleted. With severe population outflow, Jinguashih became a simple and peaceful mountain town, later shifting its focus to cultural and tourism development. The area boasts magnificent mountain and ocean views, rich historical relics, and a vibrant night sky dotted with fishing boat lights on the sea. Its serene atmosphere attracts many visitors for leisure and exploration.

▲ Jiufen Old Street, located in Ruifang District, New Taipei City, once flourished due to its prosperous gold mining industry and was known as the "Gold Capital of Asia." Although it fell into silence with the decline of mining, it regained attention thanks to the film "A City of Sadness." The ancient alleys and abandoned mining relics tell the story of the gold rush, attracting visitors to explore. Jiufen blends mountain and sea, offering distinct seasonal scenery—cherry blossoms in spring, summer breezes, autumn silvergrass, and winter mist. Fushan Temple, Keelung Mountain, and the coastal views are enchanting, while the night is adorned with fishing boat lights, creating a tranquil and romantic atmosphere. It's a must-visit destination for nostalgia and art!
