2025 Tamsui District Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Today, I would like to present “Eat until you burst in Taiwan” I can’t even post all the pictures, lol. I will list them one by one because there are so many. It’s a bit long. 💖 1. We took EVA, a full-service airline. They also provided food. I’m not sure if it was too late on the way there, so I felt that it didn’t taste good, lol. But on the way back, it was spaghetti (bottom picture). It was so delicious. 2. The famous fried chicken shop Hot Star is in Ximen Market, 西门町. There were so many people in line. We waited for about an hour. 3. The day we went to Taipingshan first, it was the peak. There was nothing to eat up there. There was a 7-Eleven before going up the mountain. We rented a car and they told us to get something to eat first, blah blah blah. I was sleepy, so I didn’t listen anymore. When we stopped at 7-Eleven, I just bought a cup of coffee, planning to go and look up there. In short, there was nothing at all. 🥹 4. On the way back, the car dropped me off at Taipei Main Station and I walked past KFC (I was going to clean up my room and make an appointment with a friend to go eat shabu). In short, I couldn't do it. It was the most delicious KFC meal ever. 5. Gong Yu Cafe' is located in Zhengbin, a colorful village. Their coffee mainly focuses on milk. The coffee is very weak. If you go, try drinking other drinks. 6. The fried (or grilled) meat shop in Ximen Market, near Uniqlo, is very delicious. Open your mind and enjoy it. 😍💖💓 Let's go try it. The sauce that is marinated is so good. It's so delicious that your wallet will be flat. 7. 四海豆浆 is located near Taipei Main Station. It's a very crowded breakfast restaurant. The xiao long bao is very delicious. The soy milk is cold soy milk (but! It's all in Chinese. There are no pictures). 8. Xing Fu Tang, burnt sugar milk tea, my love!!! So delicious 💖 I ate it at Jiufen. 8. Cama Cafe' has many branches ~~ As usual, Latte (I won't stop) emphasizes milk, not coffee. Focuses on sleeping, not waking up. 9. Ooulong Tea Project, sincere clear tea, fragrant, delicious, order unsweetened = really unsweetened, very fragrant tea. Taiwanese people drink a lot. 10. Truedan, bubble milk tea, smooth, milky, tea flavor, fragrant tea, delicious. 11. Danshui, if you go to the seaside, you have to take a car back to take the train back to the city. There will be a market right behind the station. There are a lot of delicious food. 12. Xin Mala Hotpot, incredibly delicious mala hotpot. Everyone voted to eat it again. 55555555 Haagen-Dazs beer is included in this price (a little over a thousand). 13. Fish market, must go!!! I like it here more than Japan. 🥹🥹 Standing and eating all the way. 14. Noodle shop in Jiufen They say this shop is awesome. It's really awesome. The shop owner is fierce. 555555555 #Taiwan #TaiwanTravel #TaiwanTravel #Taipei

When visiting Tamsui, you simply can't miss Fisherman's Wharf! Whether you're taking a yacht ride to enjoy the scenic views of the Tamsui River or strolling along the Lover's Bridge while feeling the sea breeze, every moment here is incredibly relaxing. Besides boat rides, there's also a large beach next to the wharf where you can play in the water, take photos, or feel the sand beneath your feet. It's perfect for families, couples, or friends to spend a leisurely afternoon together.

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 This was a foreign missionary who made significant contributions to Taiwan's medical care and education. His name was George Leslie Mackay, whose Chinese name was Xie Ruili. Taiwanese people called him "Mackay", "Dr. Mackay" or "Reverend Mackay". Dr. Mackay was a Canadian of Scottish descent. He arrived in Taiwan by ship on September 3, 1872. He then practiced medicine and preached in Taiwan and married a local woman. In 2001, the town of Tamsui erected a stone statue for him and named one of the streets in Tamsui Mackay Street. June 2 of each year is designated as Mackay Day to commemorate Dr. Mackay's dedication and love for Taiwan. (20211112)

If you come to Tamsui, it would be a shame not to visit the Tamsui Wharf. The pier is lively and leisurely during the day, and the music of street performers flows in the air, making people slow down unconsciously. Evening is the most charming moment here - the setting sun slowly sets, dyeing the entire river surface golden orange, which is so beautiful that it takes your breath away. Finding a cafe to sit down and watch the sunset, or just daydreaming on a bench, are the little happiness that belongs to Tamsui. Coming here, eating A Gei is like a ritual. Crispy fried tofu is stuffed with glass noodles and drizzled with sweet and spicy sauce. When you take a bite, the taste in your memory comes back instantly - this is the unique taste of Tamsui. Although Big Mac ice cream is not my cup of tea, the stacked shape is super eye-catching. Holding it in your hand feels like holding the halo of the protagonist. Taking photos and checking in will get you 100 points! The charm of Tamsui may be hidden in these simple and warm moments. Next time you want to slow down, why not come back to Tamsui for a walk? #MarchGoodPlaces2025

Tamsui, Taiwan is a seaside port city that is easy to travel to, only 1 hour from Taipei. When we went, it was drizzling, making the weather cool and comfortable, not hot. And luckily, the rain stopped just as the sun was setting, so we still had a chance to see the sunlight. Overall, very impressive. ❤️🔅 Activities: Walk or cycle along the route from Tamsui Fisherman’s Wharf to Tamsui Golden Anchor. Choose the time during sunset, the atmosphere is the best, forget about being tired. ☺️🔅 We spent about 2 hours in Tamsui. You can walk around, cycle around and have a simple dinner here. Actually, we planned to stay here for 3 hours, but it was raining on the day we went, so we cut some spots. We also got lost on the MRT. 😂 It took us quite a while to realize it and take the same route back. 📌 Transportation: The easiest way is to take the MRT red line until the end of the line and get off at Tamsui Station. 🧸 But we chose to take the MRT red line and get off at Hongshulin Station to transfer to the Danhai Light Rail, a train line where each station is decorated with the works of Jimmy Liao, a famous Taiwanese cartoon artist. Which is so cute and sweet🥰🥰#tamsui #traveltaiwan #traveltaiwanbyyourself #taiwan

Delicious and fun Many flavors Fun way to eat This time I ordered almond flavor 😋 First, turn the mochi over and dip it in flour! Then use chopsticks to cut it into bite-sized pieces! It's cool and soft, not as sticky as regular mochi. There is a distinct milk flavor! The first one is this fresh milk mochi! Feels good 👌🏼 Delicious 😋 No. 220, Zhongzheng Road, Tamsui District, New Taipei City Tel: 02-2626 0358

#seascape #Taiwan #Tamsui I believe many people have been to Tamsui. Whether it is Fisherman’s Wharf, Mangrove Ecological Trail or Tamkang University, everyone is familiar with them. But do you know what the Tamsui disaster is? The Tamsui disaster occurred at Section 1, Xinshi 5th Road, Tamsui District. Due to the failure of the urban renewal plan and the oversupply of development plans in Tamsui City, the seaside land originally planned to be developed into residential areas has been abandoned since the 1970s. Although this deserted land has modern roads, street lights, sidewalks and even coastal embankments, it is now overgrown with weeds as it is seldom visited and unattended, with only the coastal embankment serving as a running track for runners. This abandoned area is not simply a wasteland. In addition, many residents of Tamsui New Town run nearby and it is only a 10-minute walk from the Tamsui Light Rail. The contrast between the old and the new is quite magical. As the name suggests, Tamsui New Town overlooks a vast sea view. Surprisingly, the abandoned area is the place closest to the coastal embankment, which should have an unparalleled sea view. We set out from Tamsui by light rail and arrived at Nanhai New Town in about half an hour. Walking up the coastal embankment, we felt a desolate scene on the left, while on the right was the azure blue sea. This strong contrast made the sea view even more mysterious.

#100 Ways to Travel Freshwater｜Sour fish "Don't limit yourself because of other people's sour words. 』 Give it to me and to my fans My friend who lives in Tamsui brought me to this place. I can only say that I love it. If you like sour and strong flavors, remember to go there when you come to Tamsui. The portion is big enough and the price is pretty good! Both the snail noodles and the hot and sour noodles are delicious, but I'm not so good at stir-frying with red oil. If I had to pick one thing, it would be that the air-conditioning was not very cold that day. It is really scary to eat spicy food without air-conditioning in this kind of weather. Overall, it's still very recommended 🔰 Beef slices and river snail rice noodle $170 🔰 Deluxe Hot and Sour Noodle $240 🔰 Stir-fried pork with red oil $95 P.S. After searching the dog information, I found that they have many branches~ Let’s go and eat together (the branches are located as follows: Tamsui/Zhuwei/Luzhou/Taoyuan/Bade/Taichung) /////////////////////////////// Store information ///////////////////////////// Sour fish (Danshui branch) 📍 Address: No. 96, Minzu Road, Tamsui District, New Taipei City 251 ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 11:30–14:00, 16:30–21:30 / Sunday 16:30–21:30 🚇 Tamsui MRT Station #Taipei Food #New Taipei Food #Tamsui Food #Tamsui #Chongqing Hot and Sour Noodles #Hot and Sour Noodles #Screw Noodles #Sichuan Cuisine

In the mountainous area of ​​Tamsui, there is a glass-and-wooden house cafe hidden in an ancient courtyard house for a century. The Li Family House, which has been in business for more than five generations, is also the ancestral home of the poet Li Kuixian. Now it has been transformed into a cafe full of humanistic atmosphere☕️ The environment combines the retro atmosphere of an old house with a green courtyard. The restaurant offers home-baked coffee, handmade desserts, and seasonal dishes. There is free parking at the door, and it is convenient to drive or bike to get there. If you have a day trip to Tamsui, you might as well come to the "Stone Wall Cafe" to have a seat. In the historic Sanheyuan, you can enjoy a cup of homemade hand-brewed coffee. It is a secret cafe in Taipei that is worth recommending and collecting. Cafe inside the stone wall ☕️ Address: No. 3, Dapitou, Zhongliao Village, Tamsui District, New Taipei City

When I passed by, I smelled the delicious freshly baked old-fashioned cakes. I simply bought two flavors, original and cheese, and took a small portion of each. The boss packed them directly into boxes without weighing them. They felt very heavy when I picked them up. After I bought it home and tasted it on the same day, the cheese was very rich, the cake body was not very soft, and the milk flavor was a little lacking. Maybe I have eaten better, softer, more milky and more mouth-watering traditional flavor cakes. The original flavor of the traditional flavor cake does not seem to meet my personal expectations.
