An Area that Offers Strawberry Picking
Baishihu (White Rock Lake) is a strawberry-themed recreation area in the mountains of Neihu. There’s a suspension bridge, strawberry-flavored food, nice scenery, and the opportunity for strawberry picking at nearby farms from December to May. Little restaurants and cafes are setup throughout the area, and there’s some other kitschy tourist spots like a lover’s lake for visitors to see. A short walk down the hill from the suspension bridge is Washan temple, which is definitely worth a look as it offers some stunning views of Taipei city.
