Zhubei City
Built around agricultural settlements on the Hsinchu Plain, Zhubei City grew into the administrative seat of Hsinchu County and a rapidly urbanising neighbour of Hsinchu. The Touqian River forms its southern edge, while the Taiwan Strait lies to the west. Broad boulevards, shopfronts and apartment blocks reflect development associated with Hsinchu’s science and technology economy. The city houses both the Hsinchu County Government and the Hsinchu County Cultural Affairs Bureau, giving its largely modern districts a civic and cultural role. Zhubei also contains Hsinchu High Speed Rail station, part of Taiwan’s western transport corridor. Older settlements and farmland still shape the wider plain beyond the expanding built-up centre.

Hsinchu County is best known within Taiwan for its enduring Hakka culture. Its eastern townships rise into the Xueshan Range, while the western plain opens towards the Taiwan Strait, creating a sharp contrast between mountain settlements and coastal farmland. The Touqian River runs through the county towards the sea, and tea cultivation remains part of the upland economy. In Beipu, Hakka food and old streets give visitors a direct sense of the area’s traditions; the Neiwan Line also links communities along the foothills.

The Central Mountain Range runs through the island, while the Pacific meets a more rugged eastern shoreline and the Taiwan Strait lies to the west. Taipei combines contemporary city life with major cultural institutions: the National Palace Museum preserves an extensive collection of Chinese imperial art. Across Taiwan, night markets are central to everyday eating, serving regional snacks alongside familiar staples.
