Stop At: Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street), Jishan Street, New Taipei 22450 Taiwan

Shuinandong, Jinguashi, and Jiufen are former mining towns in Ruifang District, New Taipei City. The three towns present living records of the history and culture of Taiwan's mining industry, each one distinguished by the different mining methods they adopted: the simple charm of Shuinandong; the tranquility of Jinguashi; and the traces of the miners' nightlife in Jiufen. Though the gold mines are now closed, these towns continue to exert an allure that attracts visitors to visit and dream.

Here you can never miss the most popular local delicacy “taro and sweet potato balls” made of fresh taro, sweet potato and sticky rice.

Duration: 1 hour 20 minutes

Stop At: Nanya Rock Area, Coastal Highway, New Taipei Taiwan

Noted for its fantastic rock formations and sea-eroded coral shore. The entire coastline here is a veritable sculpture garden that illustrates, in stone, the incomparable artistry of weathering and wave action. The patterned stone topography of Nanya, unique in Taiwan, was formed through the weathering of the sandstone that lines the shore. The oxidation of iron ore within the striations of the stone has given it a beautiful striped pattern.

Duration: 10 minutes

Pass By: Yin Yang Sea (陰陽海), 226 (ROC), 瑞芳區新北市 Taiwan 224

A bay where the sea is spilt into yellow and blue; these two complementary colors call to mind Chinese Ying and Yang symbol, hence it is also called Yin Yang Sea. In the past, the locals believed the phenomena was caused by chemical runoff. However the recent examination of the waters showed the coloring was caused by the insoluble floating iron ion.

Pass By: Jinguashi 13 Ruins, Ruifang Dist., New Taipei Taiwan

Dubbed as “the Thirteen Levels”, the old copper refinery is also called “the Potala Palace of Mountain Mines” as it looks like a beautiful abandoned palace far away.
