In Taiwan, you can even stay in a yurt to enjoy sea of clouds, sunset, and stargazing — all in one experience.

As winter gradually approaches, besides enjoying autumn foliage and Christmas, it's also the season for waterfall clouds and crystal-clear night views. Camping sites across Taiwan’s mountainous regions are entering their peak season. Located atop Meishan in Wufeng Township, Hsinchu, there’s not only a vast expanse of sky and land, endless grasslands, boundless sea of clouds, brilliant starry skies, sweeping night views, and thousands of fireflies around you, but you can also stay in a yurt with an exotic frontier vibe — truly atmospheric.

Yingtao's Tiankuo Campsite sits at an altitude of exactly 1,200 meters, surrounded by mountains and facing the sea. To its right are Xiangtian Lake, Youruo, and Xiashan; behind it are Maibailai, Miantouyou, and Yemahan Mountain; to its left are Leshan, Jiali, Niaozui, and E'gongji Mountain; and right in front is Wuzhi Mountain, beyond which lies the boundless Taoyuan-Hsinchu-Miaoli coastline. Here, each season offers a different kind of beauty — the greenery of spring, the fireflies of summer, and the snowy landscapes of winter.
