Relax at riverside parks, hike to mountain peaks, bike along waterfront trails and visit museums dedicated to art, history and human rights.

Defined by a gorgeous natural landscape of meandering rivers and mountains, Xindian has been a popular destination since the Ming and Qing dynasties. Landscaped parks spread along the banks of the Xindian River and trails wind through jungle-like mountainsides to scenic lookouts. Visit Xindian for laidback outdoor recreation away from the urban bustle of central New Taipei City.

Bitan Scenic Area offers family-friendly fun where the river widens to create an emerald green lake. Cruise the calm water on a swan-shaped peddle boat, stroll waterfront pathways and watch fishers wait patiently for a catch. Rent a bike and travel around pristine parks via the Xindian River Cycle Paths. Bitan Suspension Bridge spans the lake and affords superb river and mountain views.

Hike to the top of Hemei Mountain on the Hemei Mountain Trail, which has both waterfront and mountainside tracks. Trails also travel over the five peaks of Shitou Mountain. Discover exotic plants in Erbazi Botanical Garden, spot varied birdlife at Guangxing Wetlands and climb a steep stone staircase to Yinhe Cave Temple. Taiping Temple and Haihui Temple offer a glimpse into the district’s religious devotion.

The intoxicating aromas of Taiwanese street food fill the air of Xindian Old Street. Feast on barbecued sausages, pig’s blood cake and rice vermicelli. See one of the nation’s favorite ice creams being made on a tour of the Yvette Ice Cream Dream Factory.

At the Xindian History Museum over 600 artifacts highlight 300 years of regional history. Learn about human rights awareness at the Preparatory Office of the Human Rights Museum. Admire minuscule Buddha statues and tiny books at the Chen Forng-Shean Miniature Art Museum.

Xindian is easy to reach by taking the metro to Xindian Station. It’s a 25-minute journey from Taipei Station and about 40 minutes from New Taipei City’s Banqiao Station. Get around this picturesque region by foot and bike or take advantage of free tourist shuttle buses.

Good place to stay
"Good places to spend a few days if you are on a budget and look for somewhere decent in a good location. Two things might upset you: 1. Their wifi signal can be weak if you are in your room (I stayed in single bedroom for man). 2. You might be disturbed by all door closing sounds outside."
