2025 Xizhi District Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#2月好地方2025 April and May in late spring is the season for admiring tung flowers. The flowers bloom all over the mountains like snow, which is very romantic! Xizhi, New Taipei City is mountainous and is naturally a good place to enjoy tung blossom viewing. Cuihu Lake, located on the Neigou Mountain Ecological Trail, is not only a friendly mountain trail, but also has mountains full of snow-white tung flowers along the way, making it a great place for a weekend outing. Going deep into the forest road beside Jinlong Lake, you can reach the entrance of Neigou Mountain Hiking Trail. On the way, you will pass through the old open field and Tudigong Temple. There are clear streams along the way, which is also the habitat of fireflies. The natural ecology is quite rich. Not long after that, you can reach the small puddle in the mountains and forests - Cuihu Lake. Since the entire mountain is covered with tung flowers, which grow quite high, the wind blows the tung flowers down, just like snow, which is extremely beautiful. #Xizhi Attractions #Cuihu Lake #Tonghua

Negative times negative equals positive, the new little shop on Kangning Street in Xizhi, De Zheng Coffee, with its cement walls and tin houses, cold metal iron pieces, and thick wooden doors, is a full-on modern industrial-style decoration. Right by the bustling main road, it creates its own unique space, which is very beautiful. The De Zheng logo is very cute, using the mathematical formula '- - = +', simple line symbols outline the personality of the shop, cool and cold, but cleverly using imitation wood-cut surface tables, and wooden chair shelves, to add a bit of warmth to the space. The space is divided into three areas: the first floor inside the shop, the mezzanine on the second floor, and the outdoor courtyard. The interior style is consistently heavy modern industrial, while the outdoor area goes for a white American style, with a more relaxed atmosphere. The menu includes a variety of coffee drinks, as well as savory and sweet snacks. You can have a piece of Basque cake or a platter of braised snacks and fried foods, which are great for passing the time. But don't come in the middle of a big noon, the tin house is hot!

Namigo is a wedding banquet hall. It also provides Hong Kong-style dim sum🫖. The price is not expensive and the dishes are quite delicious. Because there were only two of us that day, apart from a pot of peeled pepper chicken soup 🍲 and a serving of Guangzhou fried noodles, the rest were dim sum 🥟. The Hong Kong dim sum portion is actually just average, but I think the peeled pepper chicken soup and Guangzhou fried noodles are both delicious! Because it is a wedding banquet hall, there are many romantic decorations outside the hall for taking photos. It is perfect for friends to gather and for the whole family to dine together! 📍 Address: 1F, No. 611, Section 3, Datong Road, Xizhi District, New Taipei City ⏰ Opening hours: Weekdays AM 11:30 ~ PM 14:30 (last order 13:30) PM 17:30 ~ PM 20:30 (last order 19:30) Weekends and holidays: AM 11:30 ~ PM 14:30 (last order 14:00) PM 17:30 ~ PM 21:30 (last order 20:00) Closed on Tuesday 🚘 Parking: Large parking lot available #Good place for family #Family gathering #Hong Kong style tea #New Taipei food

It's on the first floor of the Acer building. The space is not big but there is free wifi. The boss also likes dolls and displays many cute models. Hot croissants with half-sugar Earl Grey tea are my favorite afternoon tea.

A hot pot with a very high CP value. We ordered the original hot pot and the sesame oil hot pot. It is very filling with meat for 49. It is located downstairs in Farglory Utown. The business is very good. The chili is tasty and comes with free drinks.

There is a low-key, affordable and delicious Italian restaurant on Zhongxiao East Road in Xizhi. It has a non-conspicuous appearance, and the interior decoration is simple and warm, but the food is unexpectedly delicious. Haopiaoliang has some special Chinese-style pasta, such as Mapo Tofu Pasta...etc., which are super creative, but Reni and Wei didn't have the courage to try them, so they ordered the most basic flavors: Bolognese Spaghetti and Garlic Clam Pasta, both of which tasted pretty good! We ordered a set meal, and the bread before the meal really wowed Reni! It’s sour and soft and easy to eat. The store’s special garlic-flavored spread goes perfectly with bread, and you can get free refills of bread! The boss is so kind! Because it was so delicious, Reni and Wei couldn’t help but order two more servings! The dessert after the meal is also delicious! Anyway, Reni really recommends this store! Come and try it! 📍 Address: No. 411, Zhongxiao East Road, Xizhi District, New Taipei City ⏰ Opening hours: Weekdays – 12:00–14:30, 17:30–21:00 Holidays - 12:00–21:00 🚗 Parking: There are some paid parking lots nearby #Xizhi Food

I've been to Utown many times but never noticed this cafe on the 3rd floor. Today I had Dorothy's, which was a bit sour with a pineapple aroma. Next time I'll have the most famous Yirgacheffe. A hidden space, totally relaxing.

A coffee shop in the Acer Building. In addition to coffee, tea and light meals, I recommend the chocolate series. The rich chocolate has a bit of wine flavor and can be eaten hot or cold. I also recommend their daily bread, which is soft and just right. Once you eat it, you will know that it is delivered directly on the same day.

The Xike Station near Xizhi is not very far from downtown Taipei. The next station to Nangang is Di'er. The most distinctive feature here is that because this is an industrial area, there are a lot of people at work, which is very scary. The biggest feature is that the South Exit is located at the upper end, so from the place where you get off, because only the local trains stop here, the local trains stop closer to the front, so after getting off here and walking to the South Exit, it takes about 5 minutes to get to the exit. It is crowded during work hours. Walking slowly is actually very scary. It takes a long time to walk up to the exit. It feels very different to me. It feels like there are no stairs. The actual entrance and exit of the station is so inconspicuous, but it feels very novel. It turns out that this is the magic of the small station. This is also a very important train station in a science and technology park. You can take a look at this special train station when you visit here next time.

Unicorn Dream Kingdom is located in Xizhi Yuanxiong Square. The spacious indoor attractions are not affected by the weather. There are many pink and colorful play equipment, such as ball pool slides, projection walls, and small wooden sand pits. It is suitable for children of all ages. There is also a bouncing park where children will jump all the time and it is very tiring. One ticket for a whole day of fun.

Address: No. 47, Xinxing Road, Xizhi District, New Taipei City 221 Experience: Located on the 1st floor, it is suitable for people with strollers and wheelchairs. When you go in, you can see the fresh sashimi cabinet. There are long tables for 2 to 8 people in the back. This time, I ordered the salmon donburi set meal and the double mixed sashimi donburi. It tasted super fresh~😋 There was no fishy or greasy smell at all! Finished the meal quickly😊 Features: The decoration has a little Japanese style, plus the Internet beauty wall, artificial flowers and other decorations, it is very good for taking pictures and making you feel happy🥰 Price for this experience: 500 yuan/2 people; the portion is suitable for general office workers, if you are working, it is recommended to order more~ Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #美食 #日本式料理 #便宜美食 #外行空间 #当吃什么 #噜噜 #新北市 #新北市美食 #汐止 #家庭好去#夏日美食攻略

The weather is very good today, and I just got a free day, so I just went out for a walk and immersed myself in the embrace of nature! I first came to Xinshanmeng Lake in Xizhi and found that it has become more beautiful! There weren’t many tourists, so I could take as many photos of the lake as I wanted! The tranquility and beauty here make you want to stay here forever, but it’s a pity that there was a person in a hurry to go fishing and two dirty and uncontrollable children running around the lake, which shattered my beautiful dream! However, I found that there have been a lot of changes between ten years ago and this time, but what has not diminished is that her beauty has always been there! #travelguide #travelinspiration #hiking #romantictrip #wheretogoinsummer

The Wudu Railway Tunnel is a historic site brimming with charm, featuring century-old red brick walls that bear the marks of time with their weathered and rusted appearance. The tunnel is equipped with lighting and offers a cool respite, staying warm in winter and refreshingly cool in summer. Even on the hottest summer days, stepping into the tunnel provides a soothing and comfortable atmosphere. This tunnel connects Wudu in New Taipei City with Xizhi in Keelung and is a popular route for cycling and hiking enthusiasts. Following the Keelung River, whether by bike or on foot, offers not only picturesque scenery but also a great outing for families. If you start from Wudu Station, it takes about an hour to walk to the tunnel. However, the route lacks shade, so it’s recommended to bring sun protection gear. The cool air and stunning views at the tunnel make the journey well worth it. Additionally, there are restrooms nearby, adding convenience to your trip.

#Get a discount without relying on luck. Xindekong Temple This temple is located on a mountain. If the sky is clear, you will see a beautiful view of New Taipei City. But the day I went, it was raining and very cold. The plum blossoms were blooming beautifully. It is a spot to watch the sunset. The temple is very beautiful and quiet. Traveling from Taipei Main Station is to take the TRA train to Xizhi Station. Then we called an Uber, very convenient. On the way back down, we called an Uber. The ride was not long, about 10-15 minutes. #Xindekong Temple #taiwan2024

(Jinfeng Eight Treasure Vermicelli/Mushroom and Pork Soup) is located in the Xizhi Old Market. The entrance to the market is on Datong Road, diagonally opposite the Xizhi Station. The whole market is very wide, with stalls of all sizes densely packed on both sides of the alleys. The crowds are crowded. Very happy 😃Taiwanese traditional snacks. You must try the food in Xizhi District. It is economical and makes you happy. Have a bowl of eight-treasure vermicelli, mushroom and meat soup, and a plate of pork trotter, braised cabbage, and braised pork rice. It is a very rich meal. It is worth recommending to everyone.

The set meal for two people costs 1,180 yuan. For meat, we chose sirloin steak and chicken thigh steak. For seafood, we chose prawns, Icelandic cod, large oysters, and scallion eggs (there were no basil eggs during the Chinese New Year). After the meal, there was freshly made red bean Dorayaki. Every dish was delicious, with fresh ingredients and not too much seasoning.
