Nanshi River

The Nanshi River is a waterway flowing through New Taipei City. Travelers visit this location primarily for walking along the riverside paths and observing the natural landscape of the region.

Getting There

Access from the center of New Taipei City typically requires a combination of public transport and local taxis or buses. Depending on the specific starting point and traffic conditions, the journey generally takes between 45 to 90 minutes.

Duration of Visit

A visit to the riverside area usually requires 2 to 3 hours. This allows enough time for a steady walk along the banks and a period of rest by the water.

When to Visit

The area is best visited during the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat. The most comfortable seasons for outdoor walking are autumn and winter when temperatures are milder. Like many natural sites in the region, it can become more crowded during national holidays and weekends.
