Last updated 2026-09-25 — In recent years, the organic and healthy lifestyle trend has gained popularity, sparking a new back-to-farming movement across Taiwan. People of all ages are eager to return to the simple countryside and start a new life. Hualien, with its vast and fertile land, boasts abundant agricultural produce and picturesque rural landscapes, making it a top choice for many seeking a rural escape. This year, Hualien Ideal Resort has launched the “Green Urban Farmer Healthy Holiday,” inviting visitors to put down the TV remote, step away from the concrete jungle, and get close to nature in Hualien as carefree holiday farmers.

The Fengzhi Valley Wetland Park at Hualien Ideal Resort covers an area of 5.7 hectares. The natural wetland nurtures plants and purifies water, fostering a rich variety of aquatic plants and fish, creating a small green ecosystem that serves as a feeding and habitat ground for nearby birds, insects, and frogs. Starting in June, the park is offering an urban farmer organic and toxin-free experience. Led by experts, visitors will go on a bicycle bird-watching tour, leisurely pedaling along country roads, and visit the Zhixue Farm, known for its professional organic farming. They can learn about toxin-free farming methods from agricultural experts and taste the season’s new product — “fruit bitter melon” — which has a crisp, juicy texture like fruit.

If you want to fully embrace farm life, you can also step into the permaculture farm at Fengzhi Valley Wetland and personally try your hand at land preparation, weeding, planting, and watering. By converting kitchen waste, fallen leaves, weeds, and other organic materials into nutrients for crops, you’ll contribute to a greener Earth while getting to know this beautiful land.

You can also indulge in a selection of 16 hours of meals, from breakfast and lunch to afternoon tea, dinner, and late-night snacks, with both Eastern and Western cuisines on offer. Choose as much as you like. For just NT$3,800+10% per person for a 2-night, 3-day stay, you can enjoy this diverse mix of food and farming fun.
