New Taipei City Travel

When visiting Jinshan Old Street, you can’t pass over a plate of tempting Jinshan goose meat. The "Golden Baoli Goose" in front of Guang'an Temple is filled with patrons every day. Because there is no proper store, diners have to queue and consume the delicious food while standing.To enjoy a perfect taste of duck meat, you might also take a walk to the Jinshan Shuiwei Fishing Port. The boats moored at the port and the taste of the sea breeze make for a unique feast of vision, smell and touch. Leaving Shuiwei Fishing Port, you will come across another mining and fishing port. Here you’ll find the first hot spring club in Taiwan integrated with a fishing port. The underwater hot spring is a hot spring known for its great quality!If you come to the North Coast in early winter, you should not miss out on the delicious Wanli Crab. As a last stop of your journey, drive to Yehliu Fishing Port to taste the crab paste and crab meat. You deserve it!

Jinzibei Historic Trail’s starting point at the Mudan end is the same as that of Canguangliao Historic Trail; Canguangliao exits from Jinguashi, while Jinzibei hiking trail exits from Houtong. After getting off from Shisanceng Old Tree Stop, walk for 15 minutes and you will arrive at “Jinzibei Historic Trail Entrance/Exit”. Along the Trail, visitors will come upon century-old historic sites of Jinzibei and Fengxianshijin Tablet; the total distance of the Trail is approximately 3.4km, and it takes about 2.5 hours to finish walking the Trail. The Trail is mainly made of stone path and stone stairs, which will take some energy to finish the route; but the lush green woods give refreshing coolness along the way. After exiting the Trail, visitors will connect to Jiuqiongqiao Rd. and then Houtong Rd. if they continue going straight. And going further down, visitors will see Ruisan Coal Transporting Bridge and Ruisan Coal Preparation Plant. Walking into the “Vision Hall” transformed from previously the coal preparation warehouse, visitors will have an in-depth experience of the old-time glory of Houtong’s coal mining industry as well as an overview of the local coal mining development through the introduction provided inside the Vision Hall. The other key feature of Houtong would have to be “Cat Village”! Walking over Houtong Cat Bridge, and visitors will arrive at cat lovers’ “promised land” – Cat Village. Let us kindly remind all visitors to follow the rules here, and please do not hit, feed, disturb, or pet the cats, and please do not free your cats here and do not litter. Let’s safeguard this precious “cats’ heaven” together as we enjoy a healing holiday and wander amidst the historic paths.
