• Nanya Rock Area - Begin the tour with a visit to Nanya Rock, celebrated for its distinctive rock formations shaped by years of weathering and erosion. The coastline is lined with sandstone and sedimentary rocks, which, due to varying erosion rates and resistance, have formed into intriguing shapes like the Ice Cream Rock, Bamboo Shoot Rock, and Fur Seal Rock, offering excellent photo opportunities.
• Yin Yang Sea - Known as the Bay of Two Colors, this bay features a sea split into two distinct colors—yellow and blue. The name “Yin Yang Sea” is derived from the contrasting colors reminiscent of the Chinese yin and yang symbol. This natural phenomenon is caused by mineral formations, resulting in a “half golden, half blue” sea.
• Jinguashi 13 Ruins - Explore the Ruins of the 13 Levels in Jinguashi, a former copper smelter established in 1933 when the Japanese discovered copper here. The smelter closed in 1987 due to the mining industry’s decline. It stands as a testament to Jinguashi’s copper mining history and is a notable landmark in the northeast. Viewed from a distance, the ruins resemble a forgotten palace and have become a popular location for filming dramas and advertisements.
• Golden Waterfall - Visit the ShueiNanDong Golden Waterfall on the hilly Northeastern Coast of Taiwan, near Jiufen Village. The “Golden Waterfall” is named for the water that flows through mining areas, interacting with sulfur, arsenic, and copper ores. This interaction causes chemical reactions that give the water a unique golden hue, creating a bronze-like tint on the hillside. The waterfall beautifully adorns the lush hillside, with silky water cascading gracefully, making it one of Taiwan’s most photogenic waterfalls.
• Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street) - Conclude the tour at Jiufen Village, a hillside village that thrived in the 1940s due to the gold mining industry but later fell into decline. Despite its past, the village is rich in stories.

The acclaimed film “A City of Sadness,” directed by renowned filmmaker Hou Hsiao-hsien, was filmed here. Its unique historical context and emotional atmosphere have drawn global attention. The film’s success revitalized Jiufen’s tourism, making it a top destination in northeastern Taiwan.

While in Jiufen, it’s recommended to enjoy a cup of tea at a teahouse, where you can savor the scenic views and freshly brewed tea. Besides teahouses, visitors can sample local foods and purchase souvenirs. For those with a sweet tooth, the traditional Jiufen dessert—Taro Ball—is a must-try!
