Exploring Keelung City 基隆市 - Hidden Gem in Northern Taiwan - Great Day Trip From Taipei - 2025

Keelung City (基隆市) is Northern Taiwan’s largest port. The city is easily reached from Taipei. It is often overlooked by tourists but makes for a great day trip from Taipei.

Keelung’s biggest claim to fame is its amazing Miaokou Night Market. The market runs all afternoon and evening, and specializes in seafood.

Another spot worth checking out in Keelung is Zhongzheng Park (基隆中正公園), which occupies a large hill overlooking the port. At the peak you’ll find an old-fashioned children’s amusement area complete with Buddhist statues, including a 25-meter white Kuanyin that you can climb up 5 stories inside the image. Nearby, oversized Zhupu Altar (主普壇) is a center of Ghost Festival activities in summer.

In addition there are many historic military forts and a nice waterfront area. It is easy to get here via the local train from Taipei Main Station. If you have extra time and want a break from the busy city it’s worth the effort.
