Park
Nature & Parks
Taitung Forest Park, located in Taitung County, Taiwan, is a sprawling natural sanctuary spanning approximately 1,146 hectares. The park is celebrated for its magnificent landscapes and rich biodiversity. Visitors can wander along the park's trails that meander through verdant foliage, towering beefwood trees, and colorful blooms. Additionally, the park features a serene lake habitat inhabited by various aquatic creatures and waterfowl.
We didn't have to buy tickets or anything, it was just open entry to everyone. Very pretty in the morning, the weather was perfect and there were so many good trails to run. There were Aldo lots of cool things to look at on the sides of the trails. Pretty flowers, cool statues, lots and lots of trees, it felt like I was in a remote forest.
Rhome G — Google review
Bicycle is recommended to visit the park. Cover yourself with UV protection. Sun glasses, hats are needed when you set your foot into the park. One word of warning! I saw a rattle snake crossing the pavement today. So be careful! They won't attack you unlythey felt threatened! A good place to get in contact with the nature.

Great place to walk and enjoy nature. Access to Egret Lake.
Lorne W — Google review
The forest park is situated near Taitung Ocean park and it is well connected to public transportation. Forest Park has major two entry and exit points and Park is full of nature-dedicated trails with ponds, greenish vegetation, beaches. It is the perfect park for relaxing and it will take you close to nature. The park is expanded by approximately 10km with different vegetation and trails are designed in unique and adventurous ways that will keep you three hours busy in exploration. You can rent the battery or manual bicycle for a ride in the park and that is available at affordable prices in nearby shops. The park has a restroom at various locations and the complete information is highlighted in the Park in bilingual languages. But there are no restaurants in the Park or water dispensers or vending machines.

It's definitely a must visit. I didn't have much anticipation at first. But the ride and the scenery meditate my mind. Tips: Make sure to rent an ebicycle. As the park is huge. Cycle will be hard to cover everything.

This place is so big and good for spending time with your friends and family. Also, you are able to rent a bike to go around this area. I did enjoy being with my family there. BTW you have to pay the entrance fee before you get inside.

Taiwanese restaurant
If you find yourself in Taitung City, make sure to stop by Rong Shu Xia Rice Noodles, a beloved local eatery that has been delighting taste buds for over 50 years. This charming spot is known for its unique short rice noodles made from a blend of sweet potato flour and indica rice, giving them a delightful chewy texture reminiscent of udon.
great local noodle spot with lots of seating. fried small fish is also a local delicacy!
Rebecca L — Google review
Another very famous restaurant that is located in Taitung! As I have never tried the rice noodles before so I was kind of looking forward to it when I went. It wasn't so crowded when I arrived, still have some empty tables there. The wait wasn't too long. Got my food pretty fast, but all is self service where you order and pick your food at the counter. The food is good and it is not so expensive. Overall it is a good experience
Neo — Google review
The noodle soup and side dishes are delicious, it’s half-service and the environment is clean. I love their chili, not too spicy but smell good. I would recommend this place for a quick bite.
Sara H — Google review
55nt per bowl very affordable and delicious The fried fish as side is a must order too!
Molly — Google review
We came for lunch close to 2pm on a weekday and it was not very crowded. The environment is clean and like the dining experience in an old shop setting. The serving is large, a small bowl is more than sufficient for a moderate eater. Taste of the noodle is not bad and the side dishes are delicious. There seems to be many restaurants selling the same type of noodles in the city center, didn’t have a chance to try others so couldn’t compare how good is this one.
Sam L — Google review
A Must-Try restaurant if you are in Taitung. You can see the crowd in front of the shop, don’t give up, they gone pretty fast so even though it’s long queue but you won’t wait too long till deliciousness 🤤 The famous noodle is made by rice, it’s thicker than the normal one, dried and soup available, highly recommend side dishes too. You’ll enjoy it as much as I do :)

fish ball tasted like meatball and fried fish fillet had a texture of chicken fillet. Amazing food that is way beyond expectation! Highly recommended!
Benjamin T — Google review
IG: foodie_foxx The place with almost 11k reviews is the best hots spot in the center of taitung. After a long train journey from tainan, we ended up having our lunch. This place was full by 11.30; we actually had to wait for 15 minutes. The most highlighted thing in this place is their noodles bowl, which cost only 50 $ntd for small and 55 $ntd for big portions. Noodles are so tasty and juicy with pork stock and veggies in it. The place runs for almost more than 30 years, serving these noodles at this price. Now comes the trickest part of their restaurant - the sides, which bring their main business, a bit pricy but super tasty and delicious. We tried the chciken sausage for $ 100ntd. Dry fried veggies with minced pork for 180$ntd (which was pricy but really tasty) and then the deep fried crispy fish fry 😋 for 180 $ NTD. Then, teas ranges from 25 to 50$ Ntd. We loved the place so much; we were the only foreigners in there, chatting and laughing loud getting everyone attention lol 😆, the owners were so sweet and the people who served were also so cute and always smiling, they also have a cute robot who comes and delivers the sides for ur table and talks to you about ur orders. Thank you, Rong Shu, for giving us an amazing food experience in taitung. Please open a branch in tainan; I will coke every day for the crispy fish and small bowl of noodles. Bon appetite fellows Peace ✌️ ✌️ ✌️

Night market
Shopping
Flea & Street Markets
Taitung Night Market is a small but diverse marketplace where visitors can find various snacks such as rice cakes, noodle soup, and cream puffs. The highlight of the market is the steak, omelette, and smelly tofu stall in the middle. Custard apple is a local favorite that tastes incredibly sweet and comes at an affordable price.
This fried rice noodles stall is very clean and hygienic looking. And Stinky Tofu stall that's very crispy. A good night market as there are plenty of seats to eat-in. There are also rubbish bins provided along the market, in every stall and wash basins in some stalls. 👍🏼
Audrey H — Google review
Only available on Friday & Saturday. Compared to Raohe night market, you can said it is smaller in scale. However, it has most of the food variety which you normally find in night market. And it seemed Taitung folks really like Western food on grill a lot and it has long queue.
Kokthye L — Google review
Well, if we are talking about night markets this is quite a small one compared with other night markets in Taiwan. The stalls are not too many as well, hence the choices are very limited too But there are many signatures old stall there like the stinky taufu etc Overall it is not bad.
Neo — Google review
Honestly its a great nightmarket. Much much better than Hualien’s. Locals are happy. Friendly. Patient. Good vibe. Good food. Beautiful people.
Alain B — Google review
I liked this market more than the one in Hualien. I feel they have more variety of food (or maybe they just have more food that's to my liking 🤷‍♀️). There's outdoor seatings available, though they might be specific to certain stalls. Lots of games, the feeling is quite festive.
F. L — Google review
Small night market but the food variety are good thou. The biggest stall in the night market here is the steak, omelette and smelly tofu stall in the middle. Taitung is famous for their Custard apple. Their custard Apple taste very sweet. Price is definitely cheaper. The night market have one stall selling dessert. Their egg tart and cream puff taste quite good thou.

Crowded on a Saturday evening. Smelly tofu with herbal soup was really hearty and comforting, which was perfect for a cold rainy day. There were also pork chop and the usual oyster omelette.

Nice night market with a good variety of food. Opening time says 5pm, but shouldn’t go there before 6-7 ish, because many food stalls need some more time to get the food ready.

Live music venue
Tiehua Music Village is a vibrant cultural center in Taitung, Taiwan, showcasing traditional music and art performances. Visitors can immerse themselves in live music, art exhibitions, local crafts, and delicious Taiwanese cuisine. The village is undergoing a transition from private to government management, aiming for more inclusivity for local businesses and performers. The park features charming handmade hot air balloons by school children and offers a relaxing spot for picnics on sunny days.
A comfortable place. I love the hot air balloons hung on the trees as the decoration for the park, which were handmade by the primary school children. There are no vendors during the day, but when it’s sunny it’s good to get together with some friends to picnic on the grass. There’s also a Starbucks there, if you happen to have some spare time, here’s a recommendation that you buy a piece of cake and a cup of coffee to enjoy the afternoon here in TieHuaTsun.

I loved our evening at the music village in Taitung. The market stalls were full of lovely arts and crafts, as well as food stalls. The live music helped create a great atmosphere. The lights and lanterns around the area were beautiful, too.
M H — Google review
I don't think I'm familiar with this place enough to give a review, but I'm leaving the comment before I leave this beautiful city. To my knowledge, I know the original contributor of this area :台灣好基金會 is withdrawing from the management and transferring it to the government. It signifies a new operation that will be more inclusive than exclusive to local businesses and performers. The quality and uniqueness of the boutiques and performances rendered by the former exclusiveness will diminish but not vanish. And that's what I saw and that's what's happening when I visited to the market. The lack of visitors volume and diversity of the merchant types is obvious, but it could be due to the low season. Nevertheless, the intricate architectural and illumination innovation caught everyone's eye including mines. The participation and organization are somewhat overdisappointing because I was expecting much better involvement. In short: too good the hardware, making the software going down too obvious.

A retired train station wouldn’t be allowed wasted, so here’s this artists village. Music, shows, street performance are offered and presented on regular schedule. Check their timetable beforehand so that you won’t feel let down but false expectations. Remember to bring a nice camera while taking a easy stroll along the trees and architectures of creative shapes.
Jolly R — Google review
The place consists of two main rows of shops, instead of the usual food stand you find at night markets, most of these sell handmade works of art, ranging from accessories to sculptures. There are usually performers playing music in the background. There are also cafes not too far from this main walkway. It’s nice to come in the evening after 8, when it’s not too busy. The downside is that most of the shops would be getting ready to leave for the night.

This place open after 6pm. We were there early but most stalls has yet to open. But the ambience here is really nice. The stalls here sells artistic stuff or self made items which is a suitable place to find gift for your love ones. They also have live band here for you to chill out.

a live house here, you can find some awesome indie music here. some artists run stores here as well I think they don't open in the morning, some will open in the afternoon the best time to visit is the late evening, it looks different with lights on

The coolest place in Taitung run by the coolest local I’ve met so far! The musical selection is diverse and captivating, the bar is cozy and relaxing, and the overall vibe of the village and street market is just unbeatable. Definitely a place you need to check out for yourself if you’re in Taitung and make sure to bring your friends along too!

The Railway Art Village, also known as Taitung Railway Art Village or Tiehua Village, is a vibrant cultural hub located in Taitung city. It is built around the original Taitung train station, which operated for 80 years before being moved to its current location in 1982. The village offers a motley collection of art installations and exhibitions that showcase local culture and creativity.
I loved this place! Vibrant and creative with a ton of interesting public art, unique buildings, craftspeople, musicians, and food. A great place to relax with a loved one and family. Just a few blocks away from a lively night market too. A perfect evening to soak in great weather in Taitung.

Went there twice, once during the day and once at night. Obviously, there's not much to see here during the day, but the atmosphere at night is mesmerizing. There was a live musician by the purple Christmas tree at the front of the road and there were quite a few people visiting although it's low season and a lot of the stalls weren't open that day. There's a selection of handicraft such as scented candles to choose from and you'll find a place to sit down and have a beer. The lanterns look lovely at night and give the place a special charm.

This place is in Taitung city located along a wide boulevard within a.huge garden. Good for strolls and coziness. On weekends, local artists display their handicrafts and artworks for sale. There are also buskers performance as well. Also some restaurants operate there serving normal fares. Overall this is anice place to visit if you are in Taitung city. The sun and weather brightens you up from Oct onwards. Bright sunshine, beautiful clouds, stunning flowers, cool wind blowing and the sea view from the mountain is stunning.

Such a lively place both during the day and at night! There's lots of little local shops and artists to support. It's a great place to hangout at night, with the lanterns lit up and places to sit down in the grass and just eat and chill. Note: Visited prior to COVID

Quite an enjoyable place to have a walk and relax. It has a number of artistic displays or constructs. There's also a shop selling interesting trinkets. Worth a visit.
Tim S — Google review
Railway art village is well connected to public transportation and there are parking spots for bicycles and scooters. Art village has dedicated streets for shopping such as jewelry, food, cosmetics, and live performances. Art village has a rich history for the Japanese era railway where you can relax and see the old wagon, platforms with few lengths of railway lines, and storage warehouse. Art village is situated just behind Taitung bus stand and it has a restroom near to the village art. But need to take care sometimes you can see drunk homeless people. It's so sad but the government needs to take care of them.

Scenic spot on the east coast called Little Yeliu (Xiaoyeliu).When you arrive at Fugang Geopark go to the visitor center and learn about the ecological evolution of Fugang. I am really amazed in seaside plant and happy to hear the relaxing sound of wave coming from the ocean while walking on the coconut trail. I can hear the chirping of birds.Relaxing quiet atmophere of the mountain forest. You can take a rest in the pavillion and listen to the natural music of the waves. I also enjoy the breathtaking view of dancing ocean with thick layers of sandstone and thin layers of mudstone. There are visitor centers, shop that selling nice souvenirs and delicious different flavors of ice cream,clean restrooms,camping areas,and seaside trail park.Must visit in Taitung County, Taiwan and experience the magnificent landscape created by the changes in the ocean and the erosion of the ocean for thousands of years creating spectacular tofu rocks and honeycomb rocks that attract the attention of travelers like me. If you love natural wonder of nature you will surely enjoy it.

It's about a 20min bicycle ride from the city here. The ride isn't exactly scenic but it's convenient. You can also stop at the forest park on your way. It was cloudy on the day I went, I'm sure that makes a difference, so the view was so so. There were a couple of families playing hide and seek around the rocks, other than that there were few people. Further up North are a couple more scenic spots so it makes sense to spend a day or so in the area. There is no entrance fee.

We planned for the quick stopover to check out this place, and we spent almost 1.5 hours and we wish we can spend more time here if we could. This is a beautiful place, and my kids were enjoying rock climbing/ jumping, watching small fishes, crabs and lizards in between the rocks. Love this!!!

As mentioned by others, it is a small scenic park to stop at (there is a parking lot) if you are on the road between Taitung and Hualien. The view of the ocean and the mountains is quite nice and there is no entry fee. The whole East coast is lovely, so if you are in a rush, I recommend checking all view points on Google Maps in advance in order to choose which one you would like to visit the most as it is actually a long ride between both cities.

Interesting and quirky sculptures, but nothing particularly amazing. Terrific views of the ocean and mountains, but similar to other locations in this part of the island. Definitely worth a stop if you happen to be passing by, but I wouldn't make a special trip.

Cantonese restaurant
Four people visited a popular Cantonese restaurant called HOYEA Chinese Cuisine at the Taitung Sheraton Hotel. They ordered the Roasted Duck meal set lunch, which allowed them to choose from five out of eight options. Priced at NT$2588 plus a 10% service charge, it was considered reasonable for a high-end five-star hotel restaurant. Overall, they rated their experience positively, giving scores of 4 for food quality, value, presentation, and tastiness.
So delicious 😋
劉峰廷 — Google review
The quality of the food has decreased so much over the years that the price they ask is not worth anymore a meal here. It used to be a high lever dim sum restaurant but now the squid cake has sweet corn inside, which means it officially became a lower level taiwanese restaurant. Service was pretty bad too, waiting staff was cold and non-caring.
Mirko P — Google review
The service was good. The restaurant is clean, including the toilet. Some food were delicious but there are some which I think are a bit too salty for my taste. I suggest that they make their menu more simple. It‘s thick and there are SO MANY food to choose from that it will make you feel confused and think/decide for a long time.
Janet A — Google review
We are 4 of us ordered a Roasted Duck meal set lunch (choice of 5 from 8) at NT$2588 + 10%, which was reasonable and acceptable price (considered at the 5 stars hotel’s restaurant) Overall 4 Food quality 4 Ambience 3 Value 4 Presentation 4 Services 3 Tasty 3 Suggestions (as they are 5 stars International Chain hotel) They should give brief introductions The Duck slicing job should be done by Chef or staff from kitchen not the waitress The spring onion should not be deep fried We arrived at 12:45, they should told us the time of last order They should not sent us the bill and ask to be paid soon after the last dish delivered

(Translated by Google) This is my second time to dine here and the service is good. The reception manager Zhuang Zongying has a very good service attitude. The food tasted good, but the fried rice with salted fish and chicken was not good. The aroma of the fried rice was missing, and the taste of salted fish was not present at all. (Original) 第二次來這用餐,服務不錯,接待經理莊宗穎服務態度很優。 餐點口味不錯,唯有鹹魚雞粒炒飯不佳,少了炒飯的香氣,鹹魚味完全沒出來。

(Translated by Google) It was my first time to try the five-dish duck. The flaming cherry duck was amazing and delicious. The service staff were very nice. The steamed gentian grouper (four pieces) was also very delicious. The dessert was just the right amount of sweetness. (Original) 首次品嚐一鴨五吃,火焰櫻桃鴨非常驚艷,非常好吃,服務人員態度非常不錯,消蒸龍膽石斑(四片)也非常好吃後甜點甜度剛好

(Translated by Google) A duck five-course experience, the roast duck at the beginning is amazing, the meat is tender and the skin is crispy! The duck burrito meat is a little too thick The service is really bad, no introduction or recommendation, the same goes for duck processing. The staff slicing the duck and wrapping the pancakes are all foreign workers. I wanted to tell them that there are children, are there green onions in it? There was no way to communicate. When I scooped the second bowl of duck porridge, I found a curly hair. I immediately asked the waiter to come over and he said he would recook it for us (I was skeptical myself!). After all, there are only five ways to eat a duck! I don't feel any apology for this hygiene negligence in the hotel. When checking out, the staff did not take the initiative to ask about the dining process or apologize for the negligence! After I mentioned it again, they helped me deduct the cost of the tea! ? The feeling is very bad! It does not meet the standards of a four-star hotel. It is not worth the price. If you want to eat roast duck, I don't recommend going there. (Original) ㄧ鴨五吃體驗,一開場的燃鴨讓人驚艷,肉質嫩、皮脆!鴨肉捲餅的肉稍嫌太厚 服務實在不行,沒有介紹沒有推薦,處理鴨肉亦是如此,片鴨人員,包餅人員皆為外籍勞工,想跟他說有小孩,裡面有蔥嗎?也無法溝通,鴨肉粥ㄧ上來挖了第二碗粥發現有一個捲的毛髮,立馬一動不動請來服務人員,說會幫我們重煮(我自己是保持著懷疑的態度!)畢竟~一鴨才有五吃!感受不到任何飯店的這個衛生疏失覺得抱歉,結帳時人員都無主動詢問用餐過程或是對於疏失表達歉意!我再次提及後幫我折抵茶資費用!?感受很差!不符合四星級飯店該有水準,不值這個價,想吃烤鴨不推薦前往

Hamburger restaurant
Wows Pangcah is a popular restaurant in Taitung known for its delicious burgers and cozy atmosphere. Located near the coastal Highway 11, this small eatery offers a unique dining experience with special seating for solo diners and a small library of Mandarin language books. Visitors rave about the falafel burger and express their desire to return with friends or family to enjoy more of Wows Pangcah's fantastic food.
It’s very difficult to find good restaurants in Taitung. Luckily this one exists. I think the chefs who make the burgers know exactly what they are doing. The bread used and the meat and the fries are all high quality stuff and made with care.

Answer to restaurant comment (02/03/2025): Hi! Thanks for answering. Exactly, it says fries and chips! You are totally right and exactly this is confusing, as you expecting chips inside burger and provided photo in menu doesn’t contain photo of any chips or fries as a side dish. Therefore, you look into menu see fries separately and order it. Regarding pricing, check other reviews in Google if you think my point is wrong. You have half size of “normal” burger in other places. You are in city where wages and (I guess) rent should be cheaper. So why you charge the same burger price as some Taipei places who has higher costs and bigger size. Still, subjectively, but taste of burger and meat is very average. But IMHO. —- 1. (It is not only us, there was a person next by who did the same) guys - why you don’t write that fries is included to the burger? You make people to order another fries for 150 NTD. 2. Very small burger for 260-280 NTD. It is the price of Taipei. 3. Burger average taste, not bad - but 6/10 max (!). 4. First time comment like that - very strange taste of ice - we didn’t finish our Coke coz of that. Check how you make your ice. But what make me nuts is point 1. It seems more like cheating. Please correct it or add clearer picture to menu and I will change my review from 2 to 3 stars.

We found this place on Google maps and heard their burgers and pizza were great. We didn’t see pizza on the menu, which was kind of a let down. It’s a small place and they have posted rules about how long you are permitted to stay, the minimum order, etc. One cool thing is that they have a special place for a person who is eating solo. Take #1 has a crescent shaped seating nook for a single. I thought that was neat. There’s a little library with Mandarin language Harry Potter books. Kind of ironic given the time restraint, but endearing nonetheless. The burger and fries were good and the presentation was photo worthy. Perfect restaurant for a group date or solo diner.

Finally got to try this place traveling through Taitung. Great service, very friendly and helped us with a reservation at the last moment on a holiday night. For a foreigner with limited mandarin, it was nice to order in English. The atmosphere is chill and a great vibe. The food was as good as the service and atmosphere. This who got burgers loved them, I enjoyed the refried bean taquitos. Highly recommend this place!

We went to this place after a three day biking trip from Hualien. The dinner was a perfect finish to the trip. The burger and the pizza are both great - and not many restaurants managed to do both well. Will come back again next time in Taitung.

Amazing find, a small cafe with some great food and drinks. We had the pizza and a burger and we’re not disappointed. Not your average burger / pizza. All homemade from scratch with passion. The cakes are also amazing. Set in customized containers the layout and interior are impressive. Brilliant value for money, give it a try if your in the area.

花式蔥餅

If you find yourself wandering along Zhejiang Road, make sure to stop by Fancy Oancake, a charming little stand that specializes in the beloved 花式蔥餅 (scallion pancakes). Open daily from 3 PM to 7 PM, except Mondays, this spot is perfect for satisfying those cravings between lunch and dinner. The scallion pancakes here are made fresh upon order and come with an egg as a default topping for just 35 NTD.
Absolutely delicious and possibly the best scallion pancake I’ve ever had. It’s fluffy and chewy, just make sure you opt for the double egg.

Best scallion pancake I’ve ever tried!!!!!!
Diana H — Google review
(Translated by Google) I went to line up on time at 3pm on July 24th, and took the fourth number. The customers in front of me ordered a lot of orders, so I waited for about 15-20 minutes. It is recommended to come early to line up! The crust is really very special, and the taste is not available in other places. Although it is a scallion pancake, there is also an option without scallions! (Original) 7/24下午三點準時去排隊,拿第四號、前面的客人點的數量都蠻多,大概等15-20分鐘,建議一定要提早來排隊等! 餅皮真的非常特殊,是其他地方吃不到的味道、雖然說是蔥餅、但也有不加蔥的選擇!

(Translated by Google) 📍Fancy Scallion Pancakes Having been in Taitung for almost a year, I can't recommend this fancy scallion pancake enough. 🙌🙌🙌 The first bite captivates your taste buds with the crackling sound of the crust. The golden, crispy texture is not greasy, and the distinct layers of dough lock in the scallion fragrance! Unlike typical scallion pancakes, this one has a more delicate, handmade feel. You can taste the chewiness and firmness of the crust, while the fresh fragrance of the chopped scallions bursts through your mouth. It's naturally sweet and fresh, without the overpowering oiliness. 😎 When it comes to must-try scallion pancakes in Taitung, this one is definitely one of the best. Especially for those who can handle spicy food, you can't miss the soul-stirring chili sauce—the spiciness doesn't overpower the aroma of the scallion pancake itself, but rather enhances its layers of flavor. The initial spicy kick is followed by a gentle sweet and fragrant aftertaste, making it impossible to stop eating. 😋 This fancy scallion pancake isn't just a snack; it's a surprising display of local flavor. The trifecta of crispness, fragrance, and spiciness makes it one of Taitung's most worthwhile snacks. 🌶🥢✨ #FancyScallionPancake #Taitung #TaitungFood #TaitungSnacks #TaitungTravel #taitung #taitungtravel #taitungfood #foodie #food #popyummy #greenorion #greenorionpancake (Original) 📍花式蔥餅 來台東打滾快一年的時間,我必須大力推薦這家花式蔥餅🙌🙌🙌 第一口咬下去,外皮那股「咔滋」的聲響立刻俘虜味蕾,金黃酥脆卻不油膩,層層分明的麵皮把蔥香牢牢鎖在裡頭! 與一般蔥油餅不同,它帶著更細緻的手工感,吃得到餅皮的筋性與韌度,同時蔥花的清香在口腔中迸開,鮮甜自然、不會有過重的油味😎 若要說台東必吃的蔥油餅,這家絕對是數一數二的代表。尤其是敢吃辣的朋友,更不能錯過那一抹靈魂般的辣醬——辣度不會蓋過蔥餅本身的香氣,反而讓層次更立體,先是辣勁直衝,再慢慢釋放出甜與香的尾韻,讓人一口接一口停不下來😋 這份花式蔥餅不只是小吃,更像是一場在地風味的驚喜演出。酥脆、香氣、辣味的三重奏,讓人不得不承認它是台東最值得專程造訪的小吃之一。 🌶🥢✨ #花式蔥餅 #台東 #台東美食 #台東小吃 #台東旅遊 #taitung #taitungtravel #taitungfood #foodie #food #popyummy #greenorion #greenorionpancake

Taitung Big Wheels Japanese Restaurant is a uniquely decorated eatery offering a diverse selection of set meals and à la carte options. Visitors can enjoy dishes like kimchi pork and salted grilled fish, each accompanied by soup, rice, seared tuna sashimi, and small sides. It's worth noting that the restaurant's second floor, where the bathrooms are situated, is not accessible by elevator.

The National Museum of Prehistory (NMP) is a large museum showcasing natural and cultural history. It originated from the discovery of the Peinan site during the construction of Taitung train station in 1980. The museum features exhibits on tectonics, human evolution, and archaeological artifacts that trace Taiwan's geological formation and the development of its aboriginal culture.
Incredible museum with lots to see. The information is very beautifully and creatively presented through various different displays, large 1:1 scale recreations of prehistoric life, and interactive games for children. There’s also a cafe and a shop selling clothing etc designed using aboriginal Austronesian patterns and colours. Highly recommend anyone who visits Taitung and is interested in history to spend a day or half a day here! By the way all of the displays and info signs etc have good quality English translations.

The content is really good! I suggest following a guide in the museum so they tell you more stories behind the scenes. The structure and designing of the building is to honor the archaeological discoveries. There are places for children to play and craft room to make souvenirs. Buses and trains are limited, so plan ahead if you are taking public transportation.

Complete transformation of the museum post-COVID. The displays of Austronesian culture are amazing, both in the objects themselves but also in the stories that are told. Contemporary contributions and challenges to these communities are presented with thoughtfulness and respect. A must see museum. The only downside is that is is located far from any public transportation so you will need to taxi, bike or drive; its kind of out in the boonies!

I was very impressed by the museum! Both by the building itself and by all the information available. It covers Taiwanese history from 30.000 years ago all the way to 400 years ago, with 2 dedicated sections for the human side and environmental side of things. It also has a section for international historical sites and austronesian history. I would definitely recommend it to any english speaking tourists in the area. One thing to note: if you plan on using google maps to find your way there with a bycicle, it will guide you to the back of the building where the wheelchair accessible lift is located to access the onsite restaurant for some reason. The entrance is on the other side of the building, just in front of the massive parking space.

Interesting place for learning about tribes that lived on this land before the indigenous peoples of the area who survive today. The exhibition was small but interesting, although it was missing some connection to present day indigenous tribes or the connection in the translated content wasn't clear. The grounds are very nice for walking around though and the recreations of living spaces are very interesting. I would recommend also going to the National Museum of Prehistory to get more comprehensive understanding and context.

This was a fun little surprise, right by the train station. It's nice to see something (pre-order)historical that actually relates to the island's history, not the republic of China's history. It's nothing huge or overwhelming, but a nice 30 mins stroll right by the train.

Too often in our modern society it is difficult to “see it all.” Museums hold vast depths of history to explore, libraries yield lifetimes of books. This is not one of those places, and for that it deserves our praise. In as little as 10 minutes, you can experience all that Taitung Art Museum has to offer. It may just change your life. Keep your Smithsonian, your British Museum—I’ll be here looking at any one of the at least three paintings they have. Side note—there are some really cool wooden structures outside you can climb on. Definitely worth a visit.

AmaIng exhibition on stop motion on Joss paper, a great way to spend some time between dropping off our rental car and catching the ferry to green island. The staff here are also incredibly friendly, I had a great time talking with one of them about the exhibition and shared similarities across our cultures. They even called a taxi for us so we could get to Fugang harbor, as Uber isn't used in Taitung and there aren't many taxis outside of the train station.

Love the complimentary drinks at the entrance of the store for customers. This store has everything, like Ai Mai, but is a bit smaller. It’s a place where they truly sell everything! And they have lots of great food too! Kind of like a Walmart, but Asian with higher quality and more speciality goods and diversity in products at great prices. They have clothes, tools, camping gear, cookware, packaged foods, fresh groceries, ready made foods, gifts, backpacks, shoes, appliances, sports gear, the list goes on. Found these Sanrio glutinous rice blocks imported from Japan that turn into chewy soft mochi when heated. They taste especially good in hot pot and have a character print with edible colouring on each one making it cute and fun to eat too. They sell speciality foods from all over world, like from France to Italy to Japan and more. You really can find almost anything here. There were these interesting pizza crackers too! It’s like a place of adventure to shop and discover new products. If you need souvenirs, food, supplies, and gifts, this is the one stop shop for all of it.

Sam's Burger is a delightful eatery located on the East Coast that offers affordable prices, a pleasant ambiance, and attentive staff. Their fries are exceptionally crispy and mouthwatering. While the buns could be improved upon, their burgers themselves are excellent. The menu displays burger names in English but lacks detailed descriptions of toppings. The meat used for all their burgers is sourced from Australia, ensuring high quality.
Nice place and friendly staff. We had the chili chicken burger and the BBQ bacon cheeseburger, both were nice.

Nice burger place to stop in on your way through the east coast. Good prices, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. The fries there were SUPER crispy and delicious. There burgers themselves were also great, but the bun wasn't as good, Which took away from the experience.

Pretty decent burger! Menu is in English with the burger name but lacking description of toppings in each burger. Bun is soft and all meat is sourced from Australia. Good price, around 210-250 for a burger, fries, and a drink. Plenty of seating

Ordered mushroom and Swiss burger and BBQ chicken sandwich. Both were delicious. Refills are free and we ordered a vanilla milk shake which was also tasty but sadly no refills.

Genuine American feel in Taitung. As soon as I walked in the building I smelled burger joints back in the States. The taste of the burger is also very reminiscent of the States. The pasta sauce was delicious and the fries crispy and tasty. Price is very reasonable for the amount of food.

Visiting Taidong, I was in the mood for a good, Western style burger. This fit the bill. I had the teriyaki beef bacon cheeseburger which was very tasty. Free refills of soda was also a nice touch. Service was attentive and friendly. I will definitely return the next time I'm in town to try their other items.

The eatery, known as 蘇天助素食麵, is conveniently situated in the center of the city. Operating from 4 pm to 11 pm, this restaurant is managed by a team consisting of three young gentlemen and one delightful lady who display unwavering dedication in their roles. While their limited menu comprises only three delectable cuisines, they offer these dishes at affordable prices.
One of the best plant based bamboo soup, rice and noodles I’ve tried in Taiwan! Simple and delicious
Ama G — Google review
The restaurant is located in the heart of the city. The opening and service time is 4 pm to 11 pm. The restaurant is run by three boys and one sweet lady and they do their jobs with dedication. The restaurant usually doesn't have any menu because they only serve three cuisines but all three are delicious at affordable prices. The restaurant has indoor dining and sometimes a small crowd will be there for their orders. The restaurant is clean and well managed. They also have black tea. They also have takeaway facilities. My recommendation is to try tofu with noodles and bamboo shoot soup.

This is one of the best vegetarian restaurants in the city, if not in Taiwan! Local atmosphere, delicious, unique food, good prize. My only recommendation is to put less sugar into the meals. But this is a general "problem" with food in Taiwan. ;-)

Most of vegetarian will sure mark this store in their dinner list when travel to Taitung. Both of us tried two bowls of noodles and glutinous rice. Taste was average to us as we are totally vegetarian, a little bit sweet, like the sweet Tainan flavor, for us nothing excited. But it’s very cheap and open till midnight. During summer time you may like to sit on table near to road side rather than in shop, sit near the cooking place was extremely hot but we can't choose coz the cooler sit was occupied.

I am not vegetarian, but I found the menu here, four dishes in all, very tasty. The joint serves only vegetarian food, and its "rice cake," a highly flavored steamed rice with what I guess is a mushroom topping is unusual and very tasty. Service is friendly, plenty of local color.

(Translated by Google) The all-you-can-eat option is $660 for adults for two hours only. There are many kinds of items in the store, and they are all fresh. There are also many types of seafood. The ice cream is also great, including popsicles. There are more than 100 kinds in the topping area alone, which is really amazing. value! Moreover, the environment in the store is quite tidy and clean. In addition, the store has a special notice saying that food cannot be wasted. If food is wasted, there will be additional charges. I think this is good so that there will be no unfinished and thrown away ingredients. (Original) 成人吃到飽限時兩小時$660,店內的品項很多種,而且都很新鮮,海鮮的種類也很多,冰品的話也很厲害有冰棒~光是加料區就有一百多種真的很超值!而且店內的環境都還蠻整齊乾淨的,另外店家還有特別註明說不能浪費食物,浪費食物的話會有另外要徵收的費用,覺得這樣很好就不會有吃不完倒掉的食材。

(Translated by Google) It's rare for Taitung to have such an all-you-can-eat hotpot restaurant with rich ingredients. Although the price is a bit high, it's worth it considering the quality of the ingredients. There are really many types of food, and there are also many types of ice cream. Great~ It would be perfect if there were more types of desserts (such as small cakes)! (Original) 很難得台東有這樣一家食材非常豐富的吃到飽火鍋店,雖然價格稍高,不過看在用料不錯的份上還算值得。食品種類真的非常多,冰淇淋種類也超多,讚~如果甜品(如小蛋糕)種類再多些就完美了!

(Translated by Google) I came here to shop again and it felt much different from last time. The service attitude and speed of serving food are very good, and the service around collecting plates is also very good. It is recommended to add some meals that can be eaten immediately, such as fried food or pickles, and it would be better to add ground coffee. (Original) 再次來消費,感覺跟上一次差很多 服務態度以及上菜的速度都很好,收盤子周邊服務也很好。 建議再增加一些可以立即食用的餐點,比如炸物或泡菜之類的,再加上研磨咖啡會更好。

(Translated by Google) The environment is clean, the ingredients are rich and fresh, but unfortunately there are no clams, but the shrimps are grass shrimps, which is very sincere, and the meat slices are thick, but it is a pity that the food is too weak to eat very few plates. There are all kinds of desserts, drinks and ice cream, and it is a sincere all-you-can-eat restaurant. It’s $600 per person, which is not cheap. It requires a lot of strength and is more cost-effective~ (Original) 環境乾淨,食材選擇性多又新鮮,可惜沒蛤蜊,但蝦子用草蝦 很有誠意,肉片有厚度,可惜戰力太弱吃很少盤。 有各式的甜點 飲料跟冰淇淋,很有誠意的吃到飽餐廳。 一人$600, 也不便宜,需要相當戰力較划算~

The price is cheap, but the taste seems off. The use of pickled bamboo shoots doesn't really mix will with the meat in the meat bun. It reminds me of the smell of sewage. The red baan and tarro bun also seems very bland and could use a bit more sugar or other flavors to lift the taste. Finally bun itself used in all the items is tough and dense and not light and with hint of sweatness.

Taitung White House, also known as the 'Moving Castle,' is a unique attraction in Taitung. This ramshackle four-story building was constructed by Mr. Lee, a military veteran from Guangxi Province in China, using recycled materials he collected over decades. Despite its unconventional appearance, the house has withstood numerous typhoons and earthquakes. The owner, Wang, expanded the building to six floors for his son's future.
Only come if you’re in the area and find old stuff and history interesting. There are clothes hanging all battered. I find haunted houses and abandoned places interesting and haven’t seen one quite like this one. Hand crafted (if other views are correct) and it lives on

A truly unique and unforgettable spot in Taitung! Uncle’s Little White House is like stepping into a real-life fairytale. Built entirely by one man over 40 years using recycled materials, the structure is full of charm and I can see the similarities with howls moving castle. It's not a traditional tourist attraction, but that’s what makes it so special. A perfect stop for lovers of art, architecture, and local stories.

On the one hand it's an old broken house; the other hand there's beauty in its evolving state. Something that we don't see in the big city. It's also got the Miyazaki movies vibe which makes it even more interesting for the anime fans. Definitely come by to see if you're in the area before the city tears it down.

Cool place and cool building. I checked some info on the internet and there is a blogger sharing that this house was built by an old man. He collected every pieces of material and constructed it by hand, which is amazing. However the old man passed away so now the house remains what it looks now. No one lives here, but it then becomes some tourist destination.

The house is built by an old man himself, so it's not a pretty house but there's a story behind. The owner-Wang, he is a veteran, he continuously built the house for 40 years without any steel, bricks and cement only. Magically this house get through typhoons over 40 years. The house wasn't so big at first, form outside, it looks like 4 floors building but inside it's 6 floors. The reason he built more floors is for his son. His son lives in Kaohsiung, married and work there. He think if he can build more rooms, his son would willing to move back but the wish never came true. Mr. Wang had already passed away, I don't know what will happen to this house. I hope it won't be teared apart and build some stupid shopping mall or something alike.

Parks
Taitung Seaside Park is a picturesque beach park featuring a striking red frame sculpture, perfect for capturing memorable photos. The park offers cycling and walking paths that connect to Taitung Forest Park and extend all the way to the sea via Green Tunnel Bridge. The coast is adorned with a vast black sand beach, providing a wild and unsupervised environment. However, swimming is not recommended due to strong currents and riptides.
Great place to go for a walk. Saw a number of people cycling as well. Was lucky to be here during the night glow concert.
Jenny C — Google review
This park is a nice spot for a quick visit and could be an ideal location for watching the sunrise, as cloudy horizons are rare. It’s spacious and uncrowded, making it a peaceful place to relax. However, it could benefit from more greenery, as the lack of trees is noticeable. Additionally, the smelly sewer outlet near the artistic boat by the shore is a significant drawback that needs attention. The beach access is challenging, with plenty of granite rocks to navigate, which might not be suitable for everyone but could be a fun activity for kids. Overall, it’s a pleasant park for a walk, though improvements in these areas would make it even better.

Visit during sunrise or sunset for the best experience, and explore nearby attractions like Tiehua Village and Taitung Forest Park, which are just within walking distance. Combining art and nature, this scenic coastline is a must-visit for solo travelers and families alike.

The Beinan Site is an open-air archaeological excavation of a prehistoric burial ground located in the northern outskirts of Taidong city, Taiwan. The site dates back more than 5000 years and provides valuable insights into a little-known culture that may have given rise to one or both of the island's largest ethnic groups. It features a large and well-maintained park with trails connecting all areas, as well as reconstructions of houses, an ancient boat, and a youth training center.
Cool excavation site of the prehistoric people living here hundreds to thousands of years ago. They found this when digging up the new railway station. Cool for kids to learn about history or some would find it creepy with all the coffins. The area around here is spacious. Be prepared to do some walking though none or it is strenuous. Make sure to see the replicas of prehistoric houses around the museum.

It’s near the train station so it’s easy access. The parking lot is huge, and leaves to a museum that explains more of the history. If you have free time away from the ocean and want to see some other historical areas then a good place. There is a very large area for kid to play with even tree awing or two! Reminds me of Jamestown in Virginia.

Accessible and affordable, it lies in the northern part of Taidong city, in the close outskirts. Big, and well kept park, it's ideal for a picnic, as well as getting acquainted with Taiwan's mysterious prehistory. It dates more than 5000 years back and it provides a good amount of information of a little-known culture which it's said it gave birth to either one or another of the 2 biggest ethnic groups of Taiwan. It's a burial site hiding a priceless and remarkable content of objects of all sorts and skeletons. The park also offers reconstructions of houses, a training center for youth, and an ancient boat. It has clean bathrooms and trails connecting every side of it.

We had a wonderful evening at Uncle Pete's. If hearing Bluegrass music in Asia was not enough, there was even a song in Mandarin. In the middle of the evening, a man walked in with two sea urchins. The pizza was great too.

Really nice pizza. Amazing thin dough and nice topping. (almost as an Italian style pizza) Lovely designed interior and ambience and you can even see the artistic moves of the chef, when flattening the dough.

We ordered sushi rolls with shrimp and asparagus but after it was served the staff informed us they forgot to put the shrimp inside. We agreed to pay less and accepted as it is. At the and they charged full price even when we mentioned this at the counter. The black garlic chicken soup tasted terrible. Never going back again.

(Translated by Google) I visited Taitung for New Year's Eve on December 31, 2023, and visited Taitung Forest Park, which was recommended online. However, I discovered it's just a park with bike rentals and daily hikes. Coincidentally, all public facilities (including restrooms) were closed for maintenance (check the sign for construction times), which was quite inconvenient. I recommend choosing a good time to visit, preferably early in the morning or evening, or when the weather is cool. And be sure to rent a bike for two hours for NT$100. Don't skimp.

(Translated by Google) First time coming to Taitung Life Aesthetics Museum! This time I came here to host the opening ceremony of the Taitung exhibition of the craft center's craft detour event. I took the Xinziqiang 3000 and took a nearly 5-hour drive to get here. Although I felt like my waist was spinning after the ride back and forth. I'm almost done, and I probably won't come this far again in a short time, but I really think Taitung and Taitung Lifestyle Aesthetics Museum are really worth a visit! Taitung Life Aesthetics Museum, under the leadership of Director Xu Xuguo, It has been hosting many high-quality events and exhibitions! Among them, I particularly like the stage of Cultural Broadway, This stage welcomes friends from all over the world or local people. You can sign up to perform on the stage and show your talents that you want to show to others! ! Whether it's musical instruments, dancing, singing or magic, it's really a great cultural exchange, and it also gives people here a platform to watch different entertainment performances! Whether you are a professional performer or a celebrity, it is really great that you can use this stage as a place to express yourself. I hope Taipei can have such a space! ~It feels like talent scouts can also come here to discover talents? ! I hope you can sign up next time you come! (Original) 第一次來到台東生活美學館! 這次來是為了主持工作來主持工藝中心的工藝遶境活動台東場展覽的開幕式,搭了新自強3000坐了快5小時的車程來到這裡,雖然來回搭完車的當下都覺得腰快斷了,短時間內應該不會再跑這麼遠來,但是真的覺得台東跟台東生活美學館真的很值得來一次! 台東生活美學館在徐敘國館長的帶領之下, 一直以來舉辦非常多優質的活動和展覽! 其中我特別喜歡文化百老匯的舞台, 這舞台歡迎來自世界各地或當地的朋友,可以報名上舞台表演,呈現自己想展示給別人的才藝!! 無論是樂器舞蹈唱歌還是魔術,真的是一個非常棒的文化交流,同時也帶給在的人 一個觀看竟然不同娛樂演出的平台!無論你是不是專業的表演者或是明星,都可以以這個舞台作為一個表達自己的地方真的很讚希望台北也可以有這樣的空間!~感覺好像星探也可以來這裡發掘人才呢?! 希望自己下次再來的時候也可以報名看看!

The tourist information center in Taitung, known as the Taitung Train Station Visitor Center (Old Station), boasts a friendly and helpful staff who are always available to assist visitors in navigating their way around the city. The center also features a charming exhibition space, complementing the larger area of the former station. With an array of adorable shops, cafes, and food establishments on offer, this bustling location is a must-visit destination in Taitung.
Always friendly and helpful staff present to help you find your way in Taitung and around. The place itself now hosts a small exhibition space that is really nice to visit. Besides the much bigger area of the former station. Many cute shops, cafes and food places. Not to be missed when in Taitung and hard to miss it too and it’s in the heart of it, in a way. Just behind the area, you can climb the small hill overlooking Taitung. Will make you sweat a bit in hot weather, but worth the views. Some stray dogs might bark, so just be prepared for it.

The small yellow and white bus I took (8168A) got me from the bus station to the train station in 20 minutes and it left on time from one of the numbered platforms. The TTB buses take 35 minutes to the train station and they leave from a different platform (8). I couldn’t see the platform number posted but I could see small white TTB buses parked along the curb near a sign I couldn’t read. Apparently this is Platform 8. The woman working at the info counter was friendly and spoke some English.

Blue Dragonfly Fried Chicken is a popular fast food spot in Taitung, known for its unpretentious atmosphere and delicious fried chicken. It's considered an institution in the area, with many locals having their first taste of local fast food there before big chains arrived. The hot, fragrant, and tenderly fried chicken and french fries set is affordable and offers a refreshing alternative to typical fast food joints.

The friend chicken originated from Taitung region. It has a blue coloured dragon fly theme and serve predominantly friend chicken and burgers. There are other meat options too such as pork. The friend chicken tasted like original KFC batter but tasted stronger and more fragrant. The burger has no taste of meat on the bites, could be the patty is thin. A worthwhile place to go for fast food in Taitung.

The one and only famous fried chicken which is located in Taitung. Highly recommended by the locals too. I decided to go and give it a try. The queue was alright when I arrived so I didn't wait too long to get my food. The fried chicken was good to be honest. And I was quite impressed. Even better than KFC. Friendly staff. The price is pretty standard. Overall it is good. Finger licking good.

I had a wonderful experience at 聚日式鍋物 台東秀泰店, a hot pot restaurant located on the second floor of a shopping center. Here are some tips: if you're not very hungry, one set is enough as it can be shared between two people with an additional surcharge. The menu offers various protein options to choose from and add-ons can be selected from the last page.
The food is very delicious and the portion is very satisfying. The only downfall is that they only allow 100 minutes for each party to dine.

It looks like a chain. Self serve bars of all sorts of items. It's really crowded because of the limited space inside. The meat was magnificently displayed. I felt rushed as they kept coming to us to tell us which part was gonna get shut down or transferred. The overall experience was good. The people who worked there were friendly and helpful.
Ü L — Google review
It’s a nice dinner experience in here. It’s a chain shop with a big restaurant group. The meal is qualified. You only need to choose for your main courses (what kind of meat you like). The vegetables, rice, noodles, drinks, dessert are unlimited in the bar. You can choose how big of the portion you would like to have. So you can definitely have enough and qualified dinner with a fair price in here.

We really enjoyed this place. Couple of tips: -it’s inside the shopping center on the second floor -if you aren’t super hungry/big eaters, one set is plenty! The hubs and I shared one set and paid the 89NT surcharge to share. -everyone gets the set, just select a protein option (or 2) from the center pages of the menu and any add-ons from the last page. -English menu exists, but English from servers is ok, not great.

The only dominoes in Taitung but they have some great creations that far surpasses the very average domino pizza in some countries.

Wow this is an must try! If you ever in Taitung and want noodle or dumplings! This place is a MUST TRY! Handmade noodles and if you are like me and tried their beef noodle. Man, the beef is so tender and the noodle is nice a thick hand sliced!

This was my favorite food stop in Taitung! I ate way too much but regret nothing 😂 noodles are thick cut and the pancakes taste homemade. Here's what we ordered : - 5 dumplings - beef noodles - beef pie - green onion pancake ( one slice) I added the English menu in case it helps!
