Jiufen et la côte nord
Sloping alleys and tea houses cling to the hills above the coast. Also to be discovered: Yehliu and Cascade of Shifen.

See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: rains and typhoons can change accesses; check transports and trails before departure.
