Neidong National Forest Recreation Area

It takes 50 minutes by road from Xindian, making it the most convenient option in the greater Taipei area to visit a national forest recreation area. The weather here is warm and humid with Neidong river passing through the Area, making it a paradise for ferns. The Neidong waterfall is the star attraction of the Park and is located at the end point of the Waterfall viewing trail. The water has three layers with different views for visitors to enjoy, in addition to the fresh and fragrant negative ions emanating from the forest.

Yen Town Hot Spring

Reviewed By neris2912 - Singapore, Singapore

We went to Wulai looking for the public hot springs which don't seem to be around anymore and so ended up at Yen Town, which looked like the most modern, interesting and inviting hot spring in the old street. We were definitely not disappointed and spent almost three hours there. They have private baths as well as communal pools, and we chose the latter. The environment is clean and spacious with several pools of different temperatures and designs, including an open air cold pool. The scenery is also nice as the communal pools look out into the surrounding hills. The children had great fun moving from pool to pool. They provide towels and swim caps. Don't forget to bring your swimming costumes as they are compulsory in the communal pools. Otherwise they also sell swimming costumes and trunks. Upon arrival a lady will brief you on how to use the pools including reminding you to take a shower and wash your feet before entering the pools. This is a place I would highly recommend if you are in Wulai. It is located along the main Wulai old street, near the museum and so is quite easy to find.

Wulai Forestry Life Museum

The Wulai Forestry Life Museum, located next to the bus ticket office, is a museum opened by the Forestry Bureau after five years of preparation. The museum displays in detail the development of forestry around Wulai. If you’re not familiar with this essential part of the historical origins of Wulai logging tramways and forestry development, this is the place to go. Besides introducing the local forestry culture through fun exhibition panels, the museum also holds woodcraft DIY workshops from time to time, which is a fun course which adults and children like very much!

Wulai Falls

Reviewed By 11StephenP11 - Minneapolis, United States

We needed a short day trip from Taipei City and this was an ideal choice. A well paved trail leads 1.0 km to a series of cascades that make for a relaxing walk, a wonderful dose of natural beauty. It is about 30 minutes outside the city. We topped it off with a lunch and hot spring session in one of the local places and it made for a beautiful day.

Wulai Hot Spring Township

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

Wulai is a hot springs resort about 30 km (20 miles) south of Taipei; it was once rather tatty, but it has improved considerably in recent years. It is known as an Aboriginal settlement, but better known for its food, in particular for its wild boar and venison. The bamboo steamed rice is famous, as are the wild jungle vegetables. The millet wine is stimulating'; millet is a traditional grain that is well-known in North China. Wulai is a favorite day-trip for Taipei people; the hot springs are relaxing, they are a good way to de-stress, especially in cooler weather.

Wulai

Reviewed By maryyeo - Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Wulai is literally the word for, 'hot springs' in Aboriginal Taiwanese. It was awesome that this mountainous hot spring getaway town was merely a half-hour ride from Taipei, and around a 2.5 hour ride from the Taoyuan airport. Love the fact that the glowing blue azure hot springs here contains pH-neutral sodium bicarbonate water that's great for skin hydration (different types of hot springs serves different purposes!). While we enjoyed the simplicity of this town, with shops mainly situated at the rather short Old Street and with the oldest cable car leading to the oldest amusement park in Taiwan as their main attraction, we can't help but notice that the town's a little dead after dark. Most shops that we passed by even near the good 5-star hotels were closed for the 3 nights we were there in beginning of November. It could be because the winter season has just started, but we barely felt cold wearing our normal t-shirt and pants since it was only about 20 degrees celsius. It was only after our driver/guide shared with us that few years back that Wulai has been half decimated by the sudden storm and floods. Many of residents passed on. Those that were alive had to rely on helicopter drops for daily ration of food and water. The driver also mentioned that while the Taiwanese president encouraged locals to come visit the town again after the devastation was cleared, but recovery efforts were slow and the new express road to this town was opened only recently. Most of those alive probably moved to other towns in Taiwan for a better living too. Driver said nowadays most locals goto Yilan, which explains why it's crowded there and not so crowded in Wulai these days as compared to the last. Also explains the lack of life after dark. It's a sad back story for a beautiful mountainous tourist town. Hope they recover and won't be forgotten!
