  • 08:50 Meet at Taipei Main Station, West Exit Gate 3→09:00 Departure by chartered coach (final details subject to pre-departure notice)
  • Qingshui Geothermal (2 hours)
    Geothermal springs emerge directly from underground, producing an abundant flow of alkaline water with temperatures reaching up to 95°C. The slightly yellow water carries a faint sulfur scent and boils vigorously. Food cooked here absorbs a rich geothermal flavor unique to the area.

The temple offers prosperity loans known as “fortune money,” tailored to different wishes—such as business success, career advancement, exams, employment, regular income, or windfall luck—making it a must-visit local wealth temple.
  • Chung Hsing Cultural and Creative Park (1 hour 45 minutes)
    Visitors can stroll through the historic industrial spaces and participate in interactive experiences that offer a renewed and heartfelt appreciation of cultural creativity, artistic innovation, and the park’s unique revitalized energy.

  • Evening Recommendation: Free time to walk to Luodong Night Market
    As night falls, Luodong Night Market becomes increasingly vibrant. The famous snack streets are concentrated around Luodong Park in an H-shaped layout. Local favorites include savory rice noodles, smoked duck, sliced pork, thick meat soup, dragon-phoenix rolls, tofu rolls, rice vermicelli soup, and fresh seafood—generous portions at affordable prices, and a top choice for locals’ late-night dining.

Traditional duck boats and flat-bottom boats cruise along the river, while visitors can also explore the park on foot. The area features extensive plantings of green maple, duying trees, Barringtonia racemosa, oak species, white oil trees, as well as rice, water bamboo shoots, eggplants, and other agricultural crops.
  • Dongshan Old Street(1 hour 10 minutes)
  • Yilan Cake Invention Museum+ DIY Experience(1 hour 20 minutes)
    Designed with strong traditional Chinese aesthetics, the hall recreates the joyful atmosphere of classic wedding customs. It is an ideal destination for families and visitors of all ages.
  • Zhuangwei Sand Dune Service Park (1 hour 20 minutes)
    Designed by renowned architect Huang Sheng-Yuan, the park is based on the concept of “revealing the valley to reveal the dunes.” Integrating Yilan’s natural elements, it showcases dune landscapes and sand-cave architectural spaces. On one side lies tranquil rural farmland; on the other, ponds reflecting changing skies and rows of pandanus trees. The vast rolling dunes naturally invite visitors to slow down and enjoy the scenery.
