About Neiwan
The clear waters of the Yauro River are about 100 meters wide, and the view from the highway of the spacious riverbed, green forests, and suspension bridge is like a fairyland on earth.
The old streets of Neiwan are full of nostalgic charm, including the Guangji Temple, railroad station, theater, and Neiwan Suspension Bridge. The wild ginger flower meatballs, purple jade vegetable buns, Hakka tea, tea smoothies, and Hakka cakes in Neiwan Old Street are sure to tantalize visitors’ taste buds.
Neiwan Station is located in Neiwan Village, Hengshan Township, Hsinchu County, and was the terminus of the Neiwan Line of the Hsinchu Branch of the Western Main Line. The station retains many unique architectural features built in the 1950s and 1960s, and there is an “Opening Monument” for future generations to look back on the arduous path of the railroad’s development.
Today, a shuttle bus still runs daily from Jhudong Station, and the railroad tracks run through a long tunnel through the mountains and forests.
