Tianliaoyang Wetland, Old Caoling Tunnel, Magang Ma’ao

 

For music fans who enjoy experiencing natural ecology, the first stop — the bird-watching paradise “Tianliaoyang” — is the largest plain in the Northeast Coast. It serves not only as a resting spot for migratory birds but also boasts an exceptionally rich avian ecosystem. The birds you’ll see along the way will fill your stroll with delightful surprises. The “Old Caoling Tunnel” (2,167 meters long) is also a must-visit recommended by many travelers. This “bike tunnel” combines history, culture, and tourism. By cycling through it, you can enjoy the scenic railway views and connect with the coastal bike path, making for a very relaxing and worthwhile “wind-chasing trip.” After passing through the Old Caoling Tunnel and arriving at Shicheng Scenic Area, you can gaze at the beautiful view of Guishan Island in the distance. Then continue on to Sandiao Cape Lighthouse, the easternmost point of Taiwan, to watch the waves. Explore the picturesque fishing village of Ma’ao, known for its stone houses and seasonal seafood. Make sure to leave an eternal mark on these beautiful spots in the Northeast Coast.

 

Experiencing an exciting kayaking journey is also a great option. Located in the Longmen Camping Area Riverside Park, it is the country’s first large-scale kayaking base, adjacent to the Shuangxi River and Fulong sea area. Surrounded by blue skies and green landscapes, it feels like being in a tranquil world embraced by nature’s warmth and leisurely atmosphere, offering a pure and profound experience of paddling into the natural wilderness. You can also admire the scenery on both sides of the Shuangxi River, coastal plants, and the unique sand spit at the river mouth from the red Longmen Suspension Bridge. After kayaking, head to Lingjiu Mountain to take in the panoramic view of the entire Gongliao region, including the 3-kilometer-long golden Fulong Beach, the bridge, and the nuclear power plant. After refreshing your body and mind, return to Fulong Beach to watch the beautiful sunset and enjoy some rocking music — it will surely be an unforgettable experience.
