    A great place to visit for anyone who loves art and history. The museum houses thousands of fascinating artifacts, each accompanied by detailed explanations that make the experience even more enriching. It’s also very solo-traveller friendly—you can use the audio guide headset for clear, informative commentary without needing to join a tour group. A must-visit for culture enthusiasts!

    The building blends classical Eastern culture with Taiwanese characteristics. Its shape resembles a bamboo tree rising tall and strong, its strength and flexibility symbolizing the perpetual vitality of traditional Chinese architecture. The building's facades, inclined at a seven-degree angle, rise gradually upwards. Highly transparent, energy-saving, and heat-insulating curtain glass, which eliminates reflective light pollution, allows visitors to gaze at both the sky and the earth from within Taiwan's tallest building. High-tech materials and innovative lighting create a transparent and clear visual experience, integrating the building with nature and its surroundings on a grand scale.

    Yehliu Geopark – Boasting unique and beautiful rocks, Yehliu Geopark is a cape extending from the Datun Mountain range into the sea. Weathering, marine erosion, and tectonic movements have created spectacular landscapes such as mushroom rocks, sea caves, tofu rocks, candle-shaped rocks, and potholes, making it an internationally renowned natural scenic spot. Among them, the "Queen's Head" is Yehliu's most iconic landmark and a popular photo spot.
