Step into a Japanese garden landscape reminiscent of a paradise-like resort villa.

The Miaoli mountain city is home to numerous unique accommodations, ranging from European manors to dreamy gardens, and this time we’re introducing the Shifeng Creative Cuisine Resort Castle located in Dahu. The Shifeng Resort Castle is built around a Japanese-style wooden theme, inspired by the owner’s love for Japan’s tranquil and elegant atmosphere, which served as the blueprint for its design. Surrounded by lush pine and bamboo, it also features a shimmering landscape pool and a 1,200-ping garden. From a distance, it resembles a traditional Japanese ink landscape painting—extremely serene and refined.

The Japanese landscape garden at Shifeng Castle offers a secluded Zen escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The property includes four free foot soaking hot springs, perfect for friends to chat and unwind amidst the elegant, Zen-inspired garden while letting go of everyday stress.
