An Artist Village
Treasure Hill is an interesting little artist community situated on a hillside near Fuhe Bridge and Guting Riverside Park. There’s graffiti to look at, but also artist studios, galleries, cafes, and random modern art pieces. It makes for a fascinating place to explore with kids. It’s also recently been renovated by the government to reinforce older buildings, upgrade staircases, and provide plenty of bathrooms onsite.
After visiting Treasure Hill visitors might consider renting bikes from the bike station under the nearby Yongfu bridge, or even cross Fuhe bridge to visit the weekend flea market on the other side in Yonghe District, New Taipei City.
