Kenting
You may have known about Kenting from the movie Life of Pi but the national park, which encompasses the southern tip of Taiwan, has always been popular among travelers and backpackers who are looking for a more relaxing experience. Kenting along with Pingtung is known for its tropical climate with warm weather all year round. In addition, the town heavily depends on beach life 365 days a year. This place is full of restaurants, bars, and guesthouses while there are also a few high-end hotels.
As part of Kenting National Park, the town is an ideal base to explore many sights of this area such as Maobitou at the southernmost tip of Taiwan. The National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium just takes a short drive from the town and is a great place to spend the day. With white sandy beaches, turquoise water, lush tropical forests, stretched-out seaside cliffs, and a bustling night market, Kenting has a lot going on! While most visitors only visit Kenting for a short weekend getaway, you should definitely stay longer if you can.
