Houtong Cat Village Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Houtong was formerly known as the Monkey Cave, named after the ape infested nearby, but now it is the cats gathered here that attract tourists. Houtong is an authentic mountain town. It is divided into the former mining site and the cat village with the railway as the boundary. In 2008, a cat lover organized a cat photography event in Houtong, and they posted the photos online, which were warmly welcomed by many cat lovers. Here, you can get in close contact with cats and enjoy the style of the ancient streets of mountain village houses. If you are tired of photographing cats on the winding paths, why not go to the souvenir shop in the small town, where they sell all kinds of cat-themed stuff, mobile phone chains, wallets, etc. The food stalls also sell cat-shaped snacks. Moe your heart.
