Attractions

Three top local attractions are all within a 20-minute drive of the B&B:

• Qixingtan Beach: Just 15 minutes away, this sweeping crescent of pebbly shoreline offers unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean and the snow-capped Central Mountain Range on clear days. Walk the coastal bike path at sunrise for unforgettable views, or watch the waves crash against dark volcanic rocks in the afternoon.
• Ji'an Old Street: A 10-minute drive from the B&B, this preserved 100-year-old street is lined with wooden shophouses selling traditional Hualien snacks, including mochi, preserved fruit, and hand-made shaved ice. Don’t miss the iconic red wooden Ji'an Chen Family Ancestral Shrine at its heart, a beautiful example of local Hokkien architecture.
• Mt. Qilai Forest Road: For hikers, this scenic mountain road 20 minutes from the B&B winds through cedar and cypress forests, with easy day trails offering cool shade and panoramic views of Hualien Valley, perfect for a half-day escape from the coast heat.

Travel Tips

The B&B is a 10-minute drive from Hualien Train Station; book a taxi in advance if you’re arriving by public transport, or rent a scooter or car for easy exploration—free parking at the B&B makes this seamless. Staff can help book whale watching tours or Taroko Gorge day trips if you want to explore further afield. Since the staff only speak Chinese, have your hotel booking details saved as an image to avoid check-in confusion. Book at least two weeks in advance during peak summer (July-August) and winter hot spring season, as family and accessible rooms fill up fast.
