Beskrivning
Explore Kaohsiung on a day trip from Taipei with high-speed rail. Visit Lotus Pond's iconic lakeside temples, cruise to Cijin Island, and enjoy panoramic harbor views.
Begin your journey at Taipei Main Station, where you will meet your tour guide before boarding the high-speed rail bound for Kaohsiung. Upon arrival, you will step off the train and embark on a scenic walk directly from the high-speed rail station toward Lotus Pond, entering from its northern shore. Your lakeside exploration begins at the serene Kaohsiung Confucian Temple, one of the largest Confucian complexes in Taiwan, known for its magnificent and traditional architectural style. Continuing south along the path, you will discover the Yuandi Temple Beiji Pavilion and marvel at its majestic, colossal statue of the Taoist deity Xuantian Shangdi dominating the water. Next, visit the nearby elegant Spring and Autumn Pavilions, famous for their classic shrines and the statue of Guanyin riding a dragon, before concluding your lakeside walk at the famous Dragon and Tiger Pagodas, where walking through the dragon's mouth and exiting the tiger's mouth is said to bring good luck. Take your time to admire these unique temples, capture stunning photos, and immerse yourself in the serene spiritual atmosphere.
Next, you will walk to the nearest metro station to catch the train toward the harbor district, making a smooth transfer along the way. After a short walk to the ferry pier, you will board the vessel for a brief crossing to Cijin Island. Here, you will have free time to enjoy a relaxed seafood lunch at your own expense along the island's vibrant historic old street. Afterward, enjoy a leisurely stroll by the unique black sand beach and walk up to the historic Kaohsiung Lighthouse, which offers some of the absolute best panoramic views of the bustling shipping port and the entire city skyline.
After taking the ferry back to the mainland, you will board the metro back to the high-speed rail station, transferring smoothly along the line, before your high-speed train departs back to Taipei, wrapping up an unforgettable and highly optimized day tour.
