Yingge has welcomed a new landmark of art and culture since April! Architect Yao Renxi used the image of "art gallery in the reeds" as the image, and the "brick" art installation covers an area of ​​about two hectares of 15-meter-high sand dunes. The architectural space has both a literary and artistic atmosphere and a sense of openness. It is free to visit before the end of June💕 🎨Even if you don't like art, take advantage of the good weather to go out for a walk. The park currently has four major exhibitions, including a collection exhibition that interweaves memory and culture, and an immersive projection that combines new media and game engines, AI images, etc.; weekend opening activities such as architectural light sculptures, lighting creation, performances, markets, etc. are also worth experiencing 50 pieces of art creation spanning the 1930s to the present, looking back at the cultural context and development of New Taipei City in different historical stages👍 🎨My favorite is the overall high-ceiling hall that introduces natural light, and the spacious and comfortable outdoor green grass, which is also suitable for picnics! 🎨Be sure to take the time to walk into the broken device. It feels like you are in the Antelope Canyon in the United States. Follow the spiral staircase to the top of the route. The 360-degree view of Yingge and the Three Gorges is really recommended🥰 💯There is also the Yingge Ceramics Museum and Yingge Ceramics Old Street, a 10-minute walk from the art museum. Eat, drink and have fun to spend a spiritually fulfilling day. Let's go quickly on the weekend👍 📍 No. 300, Guanqian Road, Yingge District, New Taipei City (Those who don't drive can take the train to Yingge Station) #Art Museum #Where to go on weekends #Yingge #Art Exploration

I wanted to stay home, but I suddenly felt hungry on Sunday afternoon, so I rushed to Shenkeng Old Street~ Although it was raining, it couldn't stop our foodie spirit! I didn't expect that Taipei people are all foodies. How could there be so many people in the rain? There was almost no space in the parking lot😆. There is no way. This old street really hides a lot of treasures. I will share the 4 delicious flavors of this time👇 ✨Pickled vegetables×charcoal grilled stinky tofu×Hakka rice cakes all at once #Shenkeng Must-eat Guide --- 1️⃣ **Shenkeng Xu Mama Pickled Vegetables**｜The taste of time pickled by ancient methods 🏮 A 70-year-old brand at the corner of the old street, pickled pickles in pottery jars are super retro! ✨ **Must-buy**: ✔️ Crispy **Soybean curd** (great for porridge) ✔️ Sweet **Fermented tofu** (with wine aroma but not too salty) 💡 I bought pickled mustard and pickled bamboo shoots this time, and will go back to make pickled mustard and shredded pork noodles --- 2️⃣ **Grilled stinky tofu under the tree**｜Smoky aroma! 🌳 Tin stall under the banyan tree, the charcoal aroma spreads throughout the street~ 🔥 **Must-order**: ✔️ **Signature grilled stinky tofu** (four ways to eat) At the entrance of the old street, on the right hand side from the parking lot. It can be eaten in four ways. We tried the coriander, which was spread out with plenty of coriander😁 --- 3️⃣ **Old Place Restaurant**｜Banquet-level local dishes 🍲 **Steamed or spicy stinky tofu** (with duck blood and large intestine, satisfying at once) 🐔 **Free-range chicken** (skin is chewy and meat is sweet and dipped in orange sauce, perfect match) 🌿 **Bamboo shoots** (have another bowl of lard rice, it's so delicious😋) --- 4️⃣ **Cousin Hakka Kueh**｜Q-elastic paradise 👵🏻 Hakka auntie makes it daily, and the white smoke from the steamer is the best signature~ 🍡 **Must try**: ✔️ **Cao Zai Kueh** (salted radish shreds or sweet red beans, the skin is super long and not sticky) ✔️ **Brown sugar Kueh** (different from brown sugar cake, it has a solid and chewy texture) ✔️ ** Taro cake (lots of taro shreds, fry until slightly burnt for a more fragrant taste) 💬 Auntie said: "It can be kept frozen for two weeks, and it will be just as soft and sticky when you steam it at home!" Next time I come, I want to try the Shenkeng Hall Cafe, which was transformed from a historical building. Cafes with stories are my favorite #Shenkeng#Taipei Suburbs#Taipei Weekend#Weekend Parent-Child#Old Street Eats#Hakka Food#Pickled Vegetables Lover#Shenkeng Food#Shenkeng Old Street

Location: No. 40, Fulong Street, Gongliao District, New Taipei City (Fulong Beach) Itinerary: One-day trip (Morning: Sand Sculpture Exhibition + Beach, Noon: Starbucks, Afternoon: Beach, Evening: Dinner at Warehouse No. 1) Taking advantage of the sunny weather during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, I planned a short trip to Fulong Beach on June 1st, coinciding with the 2025 Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival. This summer-exclusive sand sculpture exhibition is truly worth visiting every year! 📸 On-site Experience Upon arriving at the venue, I was greeted by stunning sand sculptures, featuring movie characters, mythological stories, and contemporary themes. Each piece is rich in detail and creativity, making it impossible not to take photos and share them online. Although the venue was crowded, everyone was orderly, refraining from noise and littering, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. Standing in front of the sand sculptures, feeling the gentle breeze and the fine sand underfoot, instantly brought a sense of relaxation. This is not just an exhibition but a therapeutic seaside journey. 🌞 Tips The sun at Fulong is no joke, so make sure to protect yourself from the sun! Don’t forget your hat, sunscreen, and water bottle. It’s also recommended to arrive early to avoid the midday heat and to leisurely enjoy the exhibition space. 🏖 Summary This visit to Fulong Beach was not just about viewing the exhibition but truly experiencing the beauty of art and nature combined. I highly recommend everyone to visit during the summer to enjoy the surprises and joy brought by the sand sculptures. It’s guaranteed to be worth your while!

✨The saying "Coming to a city for a window🪟" truly applies to Jiufen Xiaozhai Mountain—it gives you that exact feeling. 🛁The room features a spacious soaking tub and shower area, along with double-layered curtains for excellent privacy. 🚶Jiufen Old Street is just a 5-10 minute walk away, making it super convenient. After exploring the street, returning to the guesthouse for a rest feels incredibly relaxing. 🍺There's a small bar downstairs, and the Long Island beer is quite good (of course, that's just my personal taste). Sipping a drink at the bar in the evening while soaking in Jiufen's nighttime vibe is truly enjoyable. 🍽️The guesthouse offers both breakfast and dinner. While breakfast options are limited, they are simple and healthy. As for dinner, the seafood hotpot is highly recommended! The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and it's more than enough for two people. 🚎Transportation is very convenient, whether you choose Uber, a taxi, or public transit.

This narrow alleyway is filled with local shops and souvenirs along the way making it a very popular spot for tourists to discover Jiufen. You will find local delicacies and gift shops.

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Shifen Waterfall is located in Pingxi District, New Taipei City. This largest curtain waterfall in Taiwan is also nicknamed "Taiwan's Nicaragua Falls". Shifen Waterfall is located in the upper reaches of Keelung River. The waterfall has a drop of about 20 meters in height and a width of about 40 meters.

If Taipei is a bustling modern metropolis, then Tamsui is the city's gentle breath at its edge, slowing down the pace of life. Tamsui Old Street is the most flavorful part of this breath. Walking through it, you tread on cobblestone paths, surrounded by weathered red bricks and intricately carved wooden windows. The air carries a mix of fish crisps, pastries, and the river breeze, evoking a sense of nostalgia that feels like rewinding time, immersing you in an old dream. I arrived at Tamsui Old Street on a sunny afternoon. Stepping out of the Tamsui MRT station, I followed the flow of people and the riverside path. In the distance, Guanyin Mountain lay quietly along the water's edge, its surface shimmering with light. Ferries glided across the river, leaving transparent strokes in their wake. This scene intoxicated me even before I set foot on the old street. The old street stretches from the MRT station to the direction of Fort San Domingo, spanning just a few hundred meters yet holding a century's worth of prosperity and history. On both sides of the street are old shops and food stalls selling delicacies like A-gei, fish crisps, sour plum juice, and iron eggs, as well as a taste of "childhood memories." I bought a cup of hand-shaken sour plum juice from a roadside vendor. Its sweet and sour flavor, tinged with a hint of saltiness, was refreshing. The vendor's warm smile and voice added a touch of humanity to the drink. Along the way, I deliberately turned into a small alley called "Chongjian Street." This was one of Tamsui's earliest developed areas, once bustling with merchants during the late Qing dynasty. Today, though sparsely populated, it still retains a unique blend of brick Western-style buildings and traditional Minnan architecture. Weathered slogans and remnants of shop signs from the Japanese colonial era adorn the walls, casting a quiet melancholy and serenity under the slanting sunlight. Continuing forward, I reached the famous "Customs Wharf" and "Little White House." My favorite spot, however, was sitting on a stone bench by the Tamsui River, watching the sunset slowly sink into the water. The setting sun painted the sky red, igniting the last golden glow in both the sky and the river. Couples, street performers, and visitors along the shore all seemed to soften in the light and shadows. At that moment, I finally understood the meaning of "Tamsui"—not just a place name but a way of life: tranquil, slow-paced, yet full of genuine flavor. As night fell, lanterns lit up the old street, illuminating the paths of travelers heading home. I slowly walked back to the MRT station, leaving behind the bustling old street and the ancient charm carried by the river breeze. This day in Tamsui was not about grand landscapes but rich emotions and intricate details, like a handwritten letter to be read and remembered slowly.

After a decade of planning and a budget of 3 billion NTD, the New Taipei City Art Museum in Yingge has finally opened its doors. Admission is free until the end of June, and for six consecutive weekends, visitors can enjoy performances and a 300-second fireworks show. Designed by architect Yao Ren-Xi, the building incorporates Sanxia red bricks and over 3,000 metal tubes symbolizing reeds.

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 The predecessor of Mackay Memorial Hospital was the Huwei Mackay Medical Clinic, which was also the first and earliest Western hospital in northern Taiwan. It was planned and built by Dr. Mackay in 1879. It has now been transformed into the New Taipei City Tamsui Museum of History, which houses many medical instruments of the time and some brief introductions to Dr. Mackay. From the old photos in the museum, it can be seen that the Huwei Kai Medical Clinic looks almost exactly the same as it did back then, with no special changes. Although the museum is not large, it records Dr. Mackay's outstanding contributions not only to the Tamsui area but also to the medical and educational aspects of Taiwan. (20211211)

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Bitan was once one of the eight major scenic spots in Taiwan, and is as famous as the Grand Hotel, Xiluo Bridge, Baguashan Giant Buddha, and Eluanbi. The Bitan Suspension Bridge across the Xindian River is the landmark of Bitan. This is also a good place for couples to talk about love. The quiet scenery of lakes and mountains and the Bitan Suspension Bridge are the reasons that attract tourists and couples to come here. You can also go boating on Xindian Creek. There are also cafes on the lakeshore. Occasional activities are also held in the lakeside square and along Xindian Creek. Bitan has a special charm after nightfall. The Bitan Suspension Bridge hangs in the night sky like a dream under the projection of lights. In addition to admiring the beautiful scenery of Bitan, we also come to collect the English words of Bitan. There is a ♥️-shaped English word Bitan on the lakeside square, and there is also a huge English word Bitan on the embankment roadside steps in front of the bus station. Although the weather was bad and it rained during this trip to Bitan, the beautiful scenery did not affect our good mood for traveling.
