Meishan

The best time to visit Meishan Township is from October to April for clearer mountain views and cooler hiking weather. Spring can be beautiful for blossoms and tea fields, while summer is greener but wetter.

Travel first to Chiayi by Taiwan Railways or High Speed Rail, then continue by bus, taxi, or private car toward Meishan, Taiping, or Ruili. A chartered driver is strongly recommended if you want to cover multiple mountain stops in one day.

Mountain attractions are spread out, so a car, scooter, taxi, or private charter is more practical than relying only on buses. Walk within Taiping Old Street and designated trail areas once you arrive.

Stay around Taiping for easy access to the suspension bridge and old street. Ruili is better for nature stays, trails, and quiet guesthouses. Chiayi City is more convenient for travelers who prefer stronger transport links and plan Meishan as a day trip.
