Local Attractions

Just a 10-minute drive from the B&B, Jimmy’s Moon Bus Plaza is one of Yilan’s most iconic photo spots. Inspired by local picture book author Jimmy Liao, the whimsical open-air art installation features a glowing glass bus, floating moon, and dreamlike installations that feel magical at both day and night.

15 minutes away by car, Luodong Forestry Culture Park is a sprawling former lumber mill turned green space, with shaded walking trails, historic factory buildings, lotus ponds, and small museums that showcase Yilan’s logging history—perfect for a slow afternoon picnic.

For a taste of Yilan’s famous countryside, National Center for Traditional Arts is 20 minutes from the B&B. This open-air cultural park preserves traditional Taiwanese crafts, performance art, and architecture, with hands-on workshops, street performances, and local snack stalls that let visitors immerse themselves in Taiwanese heritage.

Travel Tips

Public parking near the B&B is mostly street-side and may incur a small fee, so if you’re driving a petrol or electric vehicle, arrive 15 minutes early to secure a spot. Yilan is rainy year-round, so pack a lightweight raincoat and waterproof shoes to enjoy hiking and outdoor walks regardless of the weather. Book your room during the Yilan Green Expo in spring or the Yilan International Children’s Folklore and Folk Game Festival in summer to experience the county’s most vibrant cultural events, but book at least one month in advance during these peak seasons. The B&B’s central location means you can walk to many of Yilan City’s best local noodle shops and night market stalls in 10 minutes, so don’t miss trying Yilan’s famous scallion pancake and duck rice for dinner after checking in.
