dongshih harbor

It feels like transported back in time to the 70's. We stayed in a home stay named Chiayi Dongshi Puzi Creek Prow Sky Gift Traditional Farm Homestay. The owner Miss Xie, was very friendly. The rooms were comfortable and have all necessities. Miss Xie also prepared our breakfast herself. This was almost an abandoned town as the younger ones leave the town for city. With her younger brother as a reporter, reporting the demise of these small towns, it got the attention of the authorities and the villagers to retain the rustic feel of the town. Though some of the houses are in shambles, you can still see the traditional 3 sided courtyards. There is also a lot of activities to do there. Making your art & Craft with the materials that you gathered along the routes, making salted eggs, harvesting maize and sweet potatoes, etc. You can also cycle through the town, paddle the dragon boats and so much more. They are also famous for their oysters. Help support their cause to retain the tradition for our future generations.
