Journey Highlights

What You'll See

—

A bridge, a bowl of tofu pudding, and a chisel in your hand.

The Daxi Bridge
& Waterfront

Our journey begins at the 330-meter-long Daxi Bridge. With its ornate Baroque design, it looks like a scene from a classic movie. We'll take the scenic elevator up to Zhongzheng Park, where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Dahan River and the town's rooftops — the perfect spot for your first panoramic photo of the day.

A Foodie's Walk on
Daxi Old Street

Daxi's "Old Street" is a masterpiece of early 20th-century trade. Under the elegant red-brick corridors, we will embark on a food pilgrimage. You can't leave without trying "Lao A Bo" Braised Tofu — savory, aromatic, and a local legend. Follow it up with a bowl of silky-smooth "Lai Mama" Tofu Pudding (Douhua) for the perfect sweet finish.

The Soul of Wood —
Wood Art Ecomuseum

Daxi is Taiwan's heart of fine woodworking. We will explore the Daxi Wood Art Ecomuseum, a series of restored historic buildings that tell the story of the town's master carpenters. Later, at Sanhe Wood Art Studio, you'll get hands-on experience, carving your own wooden tofu mold and understanding the discipline behind this century-old craft.
