Guishan Island

Jeg tog med venner til Wushih Havn for at sejle til Guishan Island, og vi så langnæbbede spækhuggere! Hvor heldigt og dejligt 🐬 Kaptajnen sagde, at delfiner har en intelligens som en 6-årig, og de elsker interaktion – så de forstår, når man klapper og jubler! Hvor sjovt ~ Historie ➡️ Allerede under Daoguang-perioden i Qing-dynastiet bosatte der sig beboere, som tidligt levede af fiskeri, og befolkningstallet nåede engang op på 700 mennesker. I 1977 blev landsbyen tvangsflyttet og øen lukket på grund af militære behov, og beboerne flyttede til Renze New Village i Toucheng. I 2000 blev øen officielt åbnet for turisme.

This was my first time booking a Klook tour. The day before, they thoughtfully sent a text message with the meeting time and location (including a photo), which was a huge plus! I hadn't been to Guishan Island before and was curious about the itinerary. To my surprise, many people participated in the 401 Highland climb that day. Our guide, Mr. Dong, also climbed the entire 401 Highland with us; he must be the hardest-working guide in all of Taiwan. We arrived on the island in the morning, received a brief introduction, and then immediately started climbing the 401 Highland. The weather that day was hot and humid, and I was completely exhausted by the time we descended. In the afternoon, we took a boat tour around Guishan Island, and the onboard guide provided a very detailed explanation. We returned to port around 3 PM.

From the Line customer service, to the check-in counter staff, to the crew members on the boat, everyone made me feel so warm and welcome! Here, I saw Taiwan's most beautiful scenery: "strong human kindness." Even traveling alone, I wasn't afraid of not being taken care of. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience, and thank you to the staff for sharing their knowledge. Next time, I'll remember to get enough sleep and take motion sickness medication! Although the waves were too strong to land on the island today, I saw many friendly and adorable dolphins, the beautiful Yin-Yang Sea, and the Milk Sea. The explanations were also very clear and interesting. Next time, I want to go to 401! It was my first time seeing Guishan Island and dolphins up close, and I was deeply moved. Thank you to nature for its beauty; I hope everyone will help protect it. The park around the harbor and Sunrise Beach are also very beautiful and worth visiting!

This tour is an interesting adventure into the laidback city of Yilan, covering a varied spread of different attractions! I really enjoyed my time even though I was travelling alone, and would recommend it to anyone who would like to do something less tourist-y. A special shout-out to Peter who was a very knowledgeable local guide that planned out our itinerary meticulously and shared key recommendations at every attraction. he took good care of the group and made the effort to keep us updated at various points of the journey. it was a pleasure to join his tour and would definitely recommend his tour to others in future!

Jason, our tour guide, is fantastic. He took care of us and always ensuring our well being. He’s also very patient and explain the location we are at with great details.

Visiting the Lanyang Museum gave me a deeper understanding of Yilan's natural environment and cultural history. The museum's exterior is famous for its sloping triangular design, inspired by Yilan's common "single-sided mountain" terrain. The building itself is like a work of art, blending seamlessly with the surrounding wetland landscape, leaving a deep impression upon arrival. The museum's exhibits are rich and diverse, offering detailed introductions to everything from Yilan's geological evolution and climatic characteristics to the lifestyles of its early inhabitants. For example, through models and multimedia displays, visitors can learn about the formation process of the Lanyang Plain and how the local people developed unique lifestyles in response to the northeast monsoon and rainy climate. These exhibits are not only informative but also highly interactive, making the visit engaging. I particularly enjoyed the sections that showcase traditional industries and culture, such as fishing, agriculture, and local beliefs. These exhibits convey Yilan's profound human touch and cultural heritage. Through real object displays and recreated scenarios, it felt as if I could see the daily lives of past residents, making history more than just words in a book. Overall, the Lanyang Museum is not just a place to gain knowledge; it's also a space where one can slow down and appreciate the beauty of architecture and nature. This visit allowed me to learn more about Yilan and to cherish Taiwan's diverse and rich local culture even more. If I have the chance, I will recommend this museum to friends and family, so they can experience this educational and aesthetically pleasing museum for themselves.

Det var virkelig sjovt at tage børnene med ud at fiske rejer for første gang! Vi fangede en stor reje kort efter, vi havde sat os, og rejerne var meget livlige! Agnene var små rejer, som var lidt svære at sætte på krogen. Rejerne var ret nemme at fange; vi lejede to stænger i 70 minutter og fangede 12 rejer hver, og børnene følte sig meget stolte! Nogle af rejerne kan nappe, men der er handsker til rådighed, og personalet er klar til at hjælpe, hvis der opstår problemer. Der er rejekiks og drikkevarer tilgængelige på stedet, og det er inkluderet i Klook-billetten. Der er også en rejefiskekonkurrence, hvor de første par, der fanger en reje, kan få en rejekiks. Efter at have fisket og vejet rejerne, kan man tage spanden med over til den selvbetjente grill eller få dem tilberedt af personalet – det er både lækkert og sjovt!
