Xindian

Xindian is where Taipei's urban energy gently gives way to riverside calm. You'll wake up to the scent of frying dough sticks from breakfast carts and the distant hum of scooters, but by afternoon, you're strolling under willow trees along the Xindian River, watching couples paddle boats on Bitan's emerald waters. This trip is a perfect blend for a couple: mornings filled with temple incense and historical whispers in old streets, evenings spent sharing plates of oyster omelets and stinky tofu under twinkling market lights. It's a place where you can hold hands on a suspension bridge at sunset and later debate which bubble tea shop has the best pearls. Get ready to slow down, eat well, and let the river set your pace.
