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.

Cat village with only cats sleeping, a lot of people, recommend to go on weekdays because there will not be many people.
There are so many cute cats drinking coffee ➕~ The cat super healing itinerary has a lot of cute cultural and creative small products and small cafes to feel the store's love and care for local cats
Easy to travel, good weather, there are villages with a lot of cats. On the opposite side there is a waterfall as well.
Mao Village is on the other side of the railway, Mao Village is on the other side of the railway, and Mao Village is on the other side of the railway. It's not enough to say important things three times!!! I almost didn't go to the real cat village. I had to get on the bus in less than 20 minutes before I knew the truth. I ran like mad. Cat lover's paradise, strongly recommended!
可能天氣太熱 當天遇到的貓咪沒有很多大概就十來隻 不過全都很親人幾乎你只要不嚇到他 他都不咬不走有一些直接是睡死了 被摸也不理你 哈哈村民人很好 有準備了貓條可以自助餵貓有些會直接告訴你那裏可以找到貓村內所有地方都有機會有貓幾乎全部地方貓都可以進 很開心的一次旅程
Houyu Cat Village has a hundred cats, it is easy to see the cockroaches in the small road, and because of the long-term close contact with tourists, cats are not afraid of life, some will take the initiative to play with people. Cat village has become one of the local sightseeing features, attracting cat lovers to take pictures and play. However, the problems caused by a large number of tourists have caused trouble for the residents of Monkey Cat Village.
Houtong Cat Village, a cat village in the mountain, with many cute cats, Asai full village, can play with all the cats seen.
