Description - What to expect

Meet your tour guide and driver in the afternoon, and start your Yingge and Sanxia tour heading to the southwestern part of New Taipei City – Sanxia District and Yingge District, both abundant in historical & cultural resources.



Make your first Yingge and Sanxia Tour stop at Sanxia Zushi Temple, a Taoist temple located on Sanxia Old Street. The temple was established in 1767 and dedicated to Qingshui Zushi (Master Qingshui). Marvel at the incredible art deco of the building, all sculpted by stone.



Then, stroll along the arched red brick hallways in Sanxia Old Street. These arch-facades, featuring Baroque style, were completed during the period under Japanese Rule. Enjoy the nostalgic atmosphere and don't miss the opportunity to try the famous local snack – Golden Bull Horns (Taiwanese Croissant)!



Finally to your Yingge and Sanxia Tour is Yingge Old Street, considered the “Jingdezhen” in Taiwan, where high-quality ceramic wares and artworks are made from. Take a walk along the street and be amazed by the delicate artworks created by the local artists. Watch skilled craftsmen create their pottery on a self-propelled wheel. Your Yingge and Sanxia tour ends with return transport to your Taipei hotel in the late afternoon.
