Places to Visit
Chishingtan Scenic Area (Qixingtan Scenic Area / 七星潭) (North of Hualien City. Follow the bike path from Nanbin Seashore Park.), ☎ +886 3 8221592. One of the most popular attractions of Taiwan, although maybe not the most spectacular one. Crescent bay and clear blue waters with a beach full of colorful agates. This used to be a small fishing village but has now multiple scenic trails, pagodas, beach pavilions, and a star-gazing square. Excellent vistas of the ocean, delicious seafood, friendly people and a restaurant specializing in goat milk coffee. The beach is not popular for swimming as the tides and currents are quite dangerous, the bottom drops off steeply, and doesn't have much sand (mostly pebbles).
