[2025 Hualien Attraction] Travel Guide for Hualien Fishing Harbor (Updated Jul)

Take a stroll to the Sunrise Square by the Hualien Fishing Harbor, which is as charming as a small town in Southern Europe: rows of rainbow cottages with bright colors set against the blue sky and blue sea, making you feel like you are in a dream resort. Standing on the observation deck next to the cabin, I looked out at the interweaving of the vast Pacific Ocean and the busy fishing port, and I felt particularly peaceful and comfortable. Here, you can not only take beautiful photos full of literary and artistic atmosphere, but also feel the strong harbor style and European romance. When you are tired of walking, you can sit in a nearby shop, have a cup of light coffee, and let the colorful world and sea breeze accompany you throughout the afternoon.

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025🏖️ We happened to see the online promotion and headed to Hualien from Taichung that day. We were very enthusiastic and went to Puli. People who get carsick should never eat. Ah, I ate and really vomited halfway through the drive 😵😵 I wanted to give up for a while, but I still insisted. Along the way, I also saw people hiking, which was really amazing. We took them to Tianxiang from somewhere, and then we continued our journey. Fortunately, we could make an appointment for the Wangpu No. on the Internet halfway. After arriving, we went in without queuing. The ticket was 50 per person, and we could get a 20 discount. I bought their souvenirs, which were very cute. Basically, there were foreign language books on the boat, and a few Chinese books. Only children could get the boat paper card, which was so sad, because our adults also wanted it. I will go to Keelung later, if you like it, go and have a look. Keelung Port: 2/6 to 3/9, 2025 Opening hours: 13:00 to 20:30 (last admission 20:00) Ticket price: NT.50 (including NT.20 shopping credit, free admission for children under 6 years old and seniors over 65 years old)
