Come to my home in Yilan – your host will show you the local way of life

Nourished by beautiful mountains and rivers, Yilan produces abundant agricultural specialties that have been developed into various creative dishes and local delicacies – all must-try foods. Beyond these natural wonders and delicious treats, Yilan life has many other facets worth exploring. Thanks to its pleasant environment, the area has nurtured many skilled artisans who usually engage in craft creation and also offer classes, hoping to share their local craftsmanship with others. So when you visit Yilan, don’t rush straight to famous attractions or popular food stalls. Instead, wander through the countryside, seaside, or urban alleys to find local artisans and join them for simple yet fun mini DIY workshops.

As a major tourist county with abundant scenic beauty and culinary delights, Yilan used to attract visitors mainly looking for a place to stay overnight while focusing on rushing through their itineraries. However, in recent years, travel trends have shifted dramatically. Many distinctive homestays have emerged, and travelers no longer rely heavily on guidebooks or exhaustively research must-visit spots and dishes. Often, just a friend’s recommendation sparks interest in the services or activities offered by a special homestay. As a result, accommodation becomes the sole purpose of the trip, and it’s perfectly fine not to go anywhere else. This alternative “staycation” style of travel has gradually taken root in Yilan County.
