Visiting Taipei? Don't limit your sightseeing to the city center. Also known as New Taipei City, Xinbei covers more than 2000 square kilometers of Taiwan, including coastlines, hot springs, temples, historic landmarks and more. At Yeliu Coast, strange and fascinating rock formations rise from the rocky coastline. The Lin Ben-Yuan Family Abode and Garden is a tranquil place featuring graceful Chinese landscaping.

The Pingxi Crags hike is really fun and not too bad if you don’t mind heights and narrow stairs- bring good hiking/climbing shoes and take your time to enjoy the views on the peaks. And take a walk around the old town - very scenic.

One should not leave Taiwan without experiencing Pingxi sky lantern. Our guide, Roger, showed us to places where the best chicken with rice can be found (near the train station). There were a lot of street food and mementos offer along the railway. Always feels great to experience the happy moments with your family.

We went on a wet rainy day. The walk way is long but there are shops for souveniers and foods in between. There are even temples and statues of animals. One can also see the pinxi railway

We did Pingxi and Shifen as a day trip from Taipei. They’re similar but you might as well do both. Pingxi is the quieter of the 2. You can launch a good-luck lantern from either. Shifen has more food choices. But at Pingxi you get a money-back guarantee that your wish will come true. Or was that at Shifen??? Before you head back to Taipei, the night market in Keelung is a good choice for dinner.
