Lion's Head Mountain Park (expected stay 1 hour)
The geologically and ecologically rich Lion's Head Mountain, formerly known as Jinshan Zhongzheng Park, is located on the Jinshan Cape protruding from the coast. It has been transformed from a military coastal defense stronghold to a scenic tourist attraction. Because it was a military control area in the past, the general public was not allowed to enter, so many natural and primitive environmental ecology and unpolluted coastal landscapes are preserved. Lion's Head Mountain is about 70 meters above sea level. The mountain is shaded by trees. In spring and summer, flowers and trees are lush, and birds sing and flowers are fragrant. There are viewing pavilions everywhere, with excellent views. To the east, you can see Yehliu Cape, to the west is Huanggang Fishing Port and Zhongjiaoshan Seascape, and to the north, you can see the famous Jinshan landmark "Zhutai Shuangyu" on the sea.

Candlestick Twin Towers (Distant View)
Opposite the Lion Head Mountain Park, about 400 meters in the sea, there are two twin giant rocks facing each other, like a pair of candlesticks. It is said that when the sea water is high tide, a small boat can be sailed between the two candlesticks. Since ancient times, it has been called Candlestick Island. It is a unique scenic spot in Taiwan. The Qing Dynasty Tamsui Office Chronicles listed it as one of the Eight Outer Scenic Spots of Tamsui. The Candlestick Twin Islets are about 60 meters high. There is a sad legend about the "Couple Stone". This place was originally part of the Jinshan Cape. Later, due to the movement of the plate, the rocks with horizontal and vertical joints were formed. In addition, the sea water and wind continued to erode it, which separated it from the cape. After a long period of erosion by waves, the small island gradually penetrated the sea cave below into a cape, forming a sea arch similar to a stone gate. Later, the top of the sea arch collapsed, forming two sea stone pillar-shaped reefs. The stone pillars are connected to the rock base, and the water surface is divided into two islands. The appearance is like two candlesticks, so it is called "Candlestick Twin Islets".


Jinshan (Jinbaoli) Old Street (expected stay of 1 hour)
The most famous street in the center of Jinshan is Jinbaoli Street, which is named after "Jinbaoli". This old street is the only old street from the Qing Dynasty on the north coast. It was the main distribution center for agricultural products and fisheries. The taro cakes, red sweet potatoes, egg rolls and other products on the old street are quite famous. Every time I come here, I always bring a big bag of souvenirs home. The old street market is still as prosperous as it was a hundred years ago. The Jinshan morning market still maintains the traditional way of going to the market. There are also various local snacks in the market (such as pork and oyster cakes). The most popular duck meat stall is at the entrance of Guang'an Temple in the center of the old street. There are even crispy lobster cakes from Indonesia at the end of the street. In recent years, in addition to traditional century-old rice shops, century-old Chinese medicine shops, grocery stores and other businesses, many new shops with unique flavors have also joined the old street, allowing the old street to show a new style. The shops provide everything from food, drink and entertainment.


Jinshan Hot Spring (choose your own hot spring shop) (expected stay 2 hours)
It refers to the hot spring area in Xiawanli (Dapeng Village-Wanli Jiatou Community) in Jinshan District and Wanli District of New Taipei City, Taiwan. It is adjacent to the East China Sea and belongs to the igneous hot springs of the Datun Volcano Group. The springs are neutral carbonate springs, acidic sulfur springs, alkaline sulfur springs, and white sulfur springs. Some coastal springs contain salt. The spring temperature is 45-50℃, and the outlet reaches 90℃. If you like to live a happy life, you can also experience Jinshan Hot Spring at your own expense after a day of rich itinerary to wash away your fatigue.
