A family member is visiting soon but just atopping by for a few days on a connecting flight. She has been here many times and we have travelled extensively together here. This time, instead of the usual scenic sites, we are planning to see interestinf city places in Taoyuan through Taipei. Yilan is convenient enough as well but will not have a scooter or car.
Really quirky, tacky, freaky or just wierd stuff in Taiwan would be awesome. Not ao.much the scenic views, hikes, hotaprings etc.
Anyone have suggestions? Museums and that can be fun, but seen the main ones. Though if there was a stinky tofu museum, or fake civet ahit coffee museum these are the things we are searching
We will likely go to Daxi old street the firat night from airport hen on to taipei.
The north coast we have covered a few times already including the gold.mine, nuke plant, jiufen, wild hotspring etc. So probably wont go up that way.
Every time I’ve visited the UFO houses I’ve wondered about that hotel, couldn’t figure out if it was abandoned as well. It gave me the creeps much more than the UFO houses.
Great places for sure. But have already taken here there before. The natural type area we have done extensively. But i hate citiea so we have avoided such in the past. This trip she is just visiting a couple days so a perfect chance to see the wierd and wonderful inside the concrete jungles.
Taxi might be possible, not very convenient. Renting a scooter, or taking taxi or bus from keelung city (reachable by TRA train) might be worth checking out as alternative.
Or, if you’re up there already, go also check out the Yeliu Geopark, or the diving show in the ocean world thingy next to it.
I tried, but cant figure out the location of that. Do you happen to know where it is? Would like to see that one too after we see the “communal ufo village”
