KLOOK Yehliu & Jiufen & Shifen Day Tour

The Dawn of Discovery at Yehliu Geopark

Our journey begins at Yehliu Geopark, a realm where nature’s artistry comes to life. Imagine the coastline sculpted by millennia of sea erosion into fantastical rock formations that resemble an open-air gallery.

The centerpiece? The ‘Queen’s Head,’ a rock so iconic it demands a snapshot. As you wander through this geological marvel, it feels as though you’ve stepped into a dreamscape, perfect for capturing on camera and sharing with the world.

The Timeless Charms of Jiufen

Next, we’re off to Jiufen, a quaint gold mining village that whispers stories of yesteryears. Picture meandering alleyways, charming teahouses, and the tantalizing scent of street food wafting through the air. Getting lost in Jiufen’s maze of streets is like journeying through a nostalgic tale.

You might even feel a sense of cinematic déjà vu, as Jiufen’s magic is rumored to have inspired Studio Ghibli’s “Spirited Away.”

Don’t miss out on local treats like taro balls, stinky tofu, and herbal tea eggs, each bite a taste of history.

Skyward Dreams in Shifen

From Jiufen, we venture to Shifen, where the sky becomes a canvas for your dreams. Here, you’ll craft your own sky lantern, inscribe your hopes and wishes, and watch as it floats upwards, joining a constellation of glowing lanterns.

It’s a hands-on, sugary adventure that’s the perfect way to end your day. Plus, you’ll leave with a delicious, self-made souvenir that’s as sweet as the memories you’ve gathered.
