Osmanthus Alley, an old street with great shopping and delicious food 😆 This is a must-visit attraction every time you come to Miaoli. Whether you want to eat snacks or full meals, it has everything here. I especially recommend walking to the end of the main road, where there is a century-old post office! (But it was closed this day 🥹) The osmanthus lotion sold there is really super fragrant. I bought six bottles at a time and sent them home. I applied it all over my body after taking a shower. It feels longer lasting than perfume. I also recommend you to buy Osmanthus wine here. There is no restriction on which store you can buy it from. Anyway, you can try it from any store selling Osmanthus wine on the whole street, and drink it until you are satisfied. There are also various traditional flavors of pickled mustard greens and preserved radish, which are sold very authentically and taste great, and are very tasty when stewed! When shopping here, people usually come back with a lot of bags. Address: Search for "Miaoli Osmanthus Alley" #Taiwan Local Tour

There are many delicious snacks and many famous attractions! The "washing pit" at the end of the old street was where women used to wash clothes and chat. The Nanzhuang Old Post Office and the Nanzhuang Old Post Office (centennial Post Office) on the old street were built during the Japanese colonial period and are one of the ten historical buildings in Miaoli County. The cypress building is full of Japanese style, and there is a large mailbox and a postman baby at the door for people to take photos. After Nanzhuang Old Street, there is another Shisanjian Old Street opposite. There are paintings, local delicacies and some special shops to visit. After visiting Nanzhuang Old Street, there is another Thirteen-room Old Street opposite. There are paintings, local delicacies and some special shops to visit. I feel that the brick pillars of this Thirteen-room Old Street seem to be cast by magic by Harry Potter. They are quite unique and have a sense of style. The Kangji Suspension Bridge is located next to Nanzhuang Old Street. It was newly built and opened in 2009. It is 160 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. From here, you can enjoy the scenery of the upper reaches of Zhonggang Creek and the mountain city of Nanzhuang Old Street. This suspension bridge is different from the hustle and bustle of Nanzhuang Old Street. Instead, it has a more leisurely and quiet feel. It is very suitable to take a walk here after visiting the old street and enjoy the beauty of nature.

After going to Miaoli Nanzhuang so many times, I finally ate at Laojia Rice Canteen. This is a famous check-in restaurant, and there are already many tables waiting for the food! 🔸Combined carrot cake + taro cake 70 yuan I think taro cake tastes better, you can taste the taro particles, and it is more fragrant when fried~ I prefer Hong Kong style carrot cake, which has a stronger taste. 🔸Hakka braised pork rice NT$100 This bowl of braised pork rice has a Hakka flavor that is different from ordinary braised pork. The difference is that it is fragrant but not oily, refreshing but not greasy, and the meat is evenly fat and lean. But I prefer pork legs with more fat😗 🔸Five Elements Stewed Rice Soup 90 Yuan It looks like a buffalo soaking in water, with only its head and back exposed on the water, also known as Niu Wenshui. I personally prefer Hukou Old Street! The texture of this old home is powdery and hard, not very fond of it See more Miaoli food➡️ #ayu吃苗栗 📍老家米食堂-南庒 Address: No. 25-1, Datong Road, Nanzhuang Township, Miaoli County #苗栗 #苗栗景点 #苗栗美食 #苗栗旅游 #苗栗甜 #牛文水 #南庄 #南庄老街 #哈家菜 #哈家美食 #哈家料理 #南庄美食 #甜食 #台湾旅游 #台湾景点
