In recent years, social media platforms such as Facebook have become extremely popular, and with the increasing prevalence of smartphones, sharing life moments through photos has become a global trend. To allow travelers to capture and share their wonderful moments with family and friends in New Taipei City at any time, the New Taipei Travel Fans Group has pioneered the "Travel Around New Taipei 365: Explore New Taipei Every Day, Have Fun Every Day" travel diary campaign, providing fans with a space on Facebook to record their travel experiences. The campaign invites everyone to upload photos and write their own travel diaries on the event website after visiting New Taipei City, capturing the happiest, most fun, and most interesting aspects of their trip.

The "Travel Around New Taipei 365" website is designed with a "Monopoly" concept, showcasing the unique features of New Taipei City’s 29 districts as well as travel routes such as the Golden Waterfront and handmade cultural creativity areas. It aims to let the public, along with the mascot Xiao Ke, travel around New Taipei in a full circle and enjoy the city all year round. In addition to having their own personal photo albums, users can also click on different districts and travel routes to browse photos uploaded by other fans, easily discovering the diverse beauty of each area in New Taipei City.

Moving forward, the campaign will periodically introduce limited-edition festive photo frames tailored to the various seasons in New Taipei, encouraging the public to participate in more festivals and events. While writing their travel diaries, users can also add a festive atmosphere to their photos. During the process of creating travel photo diaries, users can also use features such as "Like," "Comment," and "Share," allowing travel and photography enthusiasts to interact, share their travel stories, and recommend their hidden gems.

At the launch of "Travel Around New Taipei 365," the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) WBC players and Lamigo coach Hong Yi-cheng were invited to join and share first. CPBL WBC star player Guo Yan-wen left a comment next to his photo by the Tamsui Riverbank: "Amidst the beautiful scenery of Tamsui, there are also many high school memories." Another WBC star player, Lin Hong-yu, visits the Xingxiu Temple in Sanxia’s Baiji Mountain every year and describes Baiji Mountain as having an "environment that is serene and expansive, very relaxing." The 365 campaign will run for a full year, and the New Taipei Travel group will continue to invite more celebrities to join in recommending their favorite hidden spots in New Taipei.

To reward the early birds who sign up for the 365 campaign, the first 40 fans to upload photos will receive a limited-edition "New Taipei Travel * Most Unique" postcard. Fans are also invited to like their uploaded photo sets on the 365 campaign webpage. From now until June 25, the top three "Golden Like Awards" with the most likes will win a branded luggage bag worth NT$1,800. At the end of the year, one enthusiastic participant will also be randomly selected to win a commemorative calendar and a branded suitcase worth NT$15,000.
