As autumn deepens, Japan’s red foliage is gradually reaching its peak. If you haven’t booked a flight yet but still want to see autumn leaves somewhere else, Taiwan might be a great choice.

This time, we’re introducing Gongbei Temple, located in Xizhi District, New Taipei City. Originally built in 1906 as a traditional Taiwanese wooden structure, the temple is set in a serene and pleasant environment. With elements such as stone bridges, temples, and maple forests, the stunning autumn scenery has made this spot a popular photography destination in Taiwan recently.

Among the many scenic spots at Gongbei Temple, the Twin Arch Bridge in the back mountain is a favorite among photographers. It’s not hard to see why—the surrounding maple trees paired with the weathered stone bridge give off an old-world charm, which is why this place is often called a “little Kyoto in the mountains.”
