A spot with a beautiful sunset view that can be reached by subway from Taipei

Here are some sunset spots in Tamsui that you can get to from Taipei by MRT♪

① Tamsui Old Street
When you leave Tamsui Station, the road to the right along the Tamsui River is Tamsui Old Street.
There are a variety of shops selling miscellaneous goods and food.
In particular, there is no shop selling bite-sized pineapple cakes in Taipei City, and they can only be purchased in Tamsui. They are filled with plenty of bean paste and have a pie-like dough, so they are highly recommended.
Halfway through Tamsui Old Street, there is Tamsui Fuyou Temple, where locals come to worship. (Currently under construction as of March 2024)
It takes about 15 minutes from the starting point of Tamsui Station to reach the end of Tamsui Old Street.

② Fort San Domingo
When it comes to Tamsui, Fort San Domingo is famous.
You can reach it by walking through Tamsui Old Street and then another 5 minutes.
Admission is 80 NTD for adults.
Fort San Domingo is said to be the oldest surviving building in Taiwan, and was also used as the British Consulate.
It consists of two buildings, each with its own exhibits.
Among the exhibits in the consulate is a reproduction of a living room.
Also, since it is on a hill, the view of the Tamsui River from Fort San Domingo is beautiful.
