Nearby Local Attractions

Three can’t-miss attractions are all within a 15-minute drive of the homestay. First, Luodong Forestry Culture Park is a 10-minute drive away: this sprawling former logging yard turned public park features shaded walking trails, historic wooden buildings, a large central lotus pond, and open grasslands perfect for picnics. It’s ideal for slow mornings and photo walks. Second, Luodong Night Market is 12 minutes from the homestay, one of Yilan’s most famous night markets, where you can sample local specialties including scallion pancakes, pearl milk tea, grilled chicken, and Yilan green onion sausage. Third, Jimmy’s Moon Bus is located just 8 minutes away in downtown Luodong, a whimsical public art installation based on the beloved illustrator Jimmy Liao’s work, perfect for family photos and quiet moments by the river.

Travel Tips

Since the homestay does not offer on-site parking, most visitors opt to take a 10-minute taxi ride from Luodong Train Station, which costs less than NT$100. If you drive, there are public paid parking lots 5 minutes’ walk from the property, so leave extra time to find a spot before check-in. The homestay only hosts Mandarin-speaking staff, so having a translation app handy if you don’t speak Chinese is helpful. Book at least two to four weeks in advance, especially for weekends and Taiwanese national holidays, when family rooms fill up quickly. Don’t forget to bring comfortable walking shoes for hiking and bike rides around Luodong’s quiet country lanes.
