What is there to do and see in Ilan, over a weekend?
A previous post asking much the same got just two responses, suggesting only a bike ride, scooter ride or going to a park. Surely there is something more to see in this city and area - scenic countryside and maybe half decent coastline/beaches in the vicinity, no?
I see the International Children’s Festival is on until August 11, but that appeals little, other than music from lands afar.
How about the Paoma trail at Jiaosi, just outside the town on the way to the waterfalls? I only got to see the map board at the trail head, has anyone done this trail? It is part of the first road from Danshui to Ilan apparently, from the pre auto era. Another part of this road is now the Tsaoling Historic Trail just outside Fulong, and is a great walk. I would be very grateful for any suggestions.
