Gaomei Wetlands Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Gaomei Wetland is located in Taichung, with a small area. It also has muddy and sandy beaches, tidal streams, grassy marshes and other habitats. There are many kinds of biodiversity here. Every winter, a large number of migratory birds come here to escape the cold and spend the winter. It is one of the scenic spots of Gaomei Wetland. . When you arrive at Gaomei Wetland, you will see two rows of huge wind turbines. The huge blades are turning in the wind, which is very spectacular. The environment-friendly power generation mode meets the wetland landscape, and a new beauty is born unexpectedly. When the sun sets, these giants stand on the horizon and are reflected on the tidal flat water to form silhouettes, blending with the orange, pink, and purple gradient sky. The beauty can only be experienced when you come to the Gaomei Wetland. In the shallow water on the mudflat, take off your shoes and roll up your trousers and step into this silt. There is no sticky foot and no odor. Occasionally, there will be muddy water splashing on the instep, which can basically keep your feet clean. In addition to migratory birds, there are many fish, crabs and other creatures in the wetland. In the "Chaoxi Area", you can observe the birth and hatching of migratory fish. coexist. If you like cycling, you might as well ride along the Gaomei Bicycle Trail from the seawall to the wetlands. Although the lane is relatively simple, it is flat and not difficult to ride. Don't rush to leave after sunset, wait for 30 minutes Left or right, the coastal road next to the windmill will start to light up the street lights. The windmills became the protagonists again, with little yellow light extending under their feet, reflecting on the water, which is not inferior to the scenery.

The sunset is beautiful anyway. However, I think it is difficult for tourists to go by public transportation, so chartered tours or taxis are good. There is basically nothing nearby, but there is Mitsui's outlet about １０ by car. I think it's an Instagram spot in front of the Ferris wheel there. I recommend seeing the sunset here once.

Arrived at Gaome with heavy winds. Its so cold but the amazing thing is that we’ve witnessed the windmills on their top speed. The place is clean and well maintained. Enjoyed watching birds (pelicans/ egrets, i think). Must visit!

It is suggested to drive or charter a car. It can start at about three o'clock in Taichung City. The way in is relatively small. It is easy to get stuck in traffic when the weather is good. It is only around four o'clock that you can play leisurely while eating and playing. Scenic spots are free. You can walk slowly along the pavement. There are many Taiwanese snacks to buy across the wetland. There are many crabs standing next to you. The wind is bigger than I expected. I suggest wearing shorts, walking to the aisle and finally taking off my shoes to play in the water. The water is very shallow. The sunset was beautiful, but by this time there were many people. Listen to friends living near here say that winter is colder, so if you want fewer people, you should probably come in winter to the west of the sunset, with windmills, wetland reflection.... You can take a lot of beautiful pictures ~~

The sunset in Gaomei Wetland is the best surprise that I met in Taichung. I sat on the long seaside embankment and waited for the sunset to blossom in brilliant colors and walk barefoot on the shallow beach. My mood was so happy that I could not describe it.
