Visit Taoyuan City


Taoyuan City is a major gateway into Taiwan, located in the northwest of the country. It is home to both Taoyuan International Airport and Taiwan High Speed Rail, making it a popular destination for tourists travelling to other parts of the island nation. The city itself offers plenty of attractions and things to do; from exploring the ancient Longtan Temple - originally built during the Qing Dynasty in 1739 - to visiting Chung Cheng Historic Park - which features an open-air theater showcasing traditional Chinese opera performances.

For those who are looking for more adventure, head up to Lala Mountain Ecological Park where you can take part in activities like rock climbing, ziplining and hiking. Other interesting spots include Beehive Rock - a natural sea stack with its own unique legends - and Longteng Bridge which has stunning views over Taipei City skyline at night.

For something a bit different there's Maokong Gondola cable car ride which takes you through some stunning scenery over Maokong Mountain tea plantation before arriving at Taipei Zoo station where you can explore some of Asia's most exotic wildlife. One historical fact about Taoyuan City is that it was once home to one of Taiwan's oldest ice cream factories since 1934 when local entrepreneur Yat-sen Zhang invented Pin Li Ice Cream - still sold today!
