The rise of Taiwan’s cultural and creative industries, through packaging and storytelling, has made everyday life exciting and interesting. In recent years, unique local shops and creative coffee houses have emerged in Yilan, drawing large crowds and also sparking more quirky and fun attractions. Among them, Shanzhaicun and Sihwei Fort Station are definitely the most photogenic and delicious choices.

● Sihwei Fort Station

Sihwei Fort Station is designed based on the concept of the famous novel *Harry Potter*, creating a magical world akin to Hogwarts. At the entrance stands a giant guardian, the station’s most prominent landmark. Once inside, you step into the movie’s magical setting — dim yellow lights illuminate European-style streets, lined with all kinds of magical trinkets and themed bread. Look up and you’ll see numerous owls staring intently at passersby, creating a fresh and fascinating atmosphere just like stepping into Diagon Alley.
