To deepen the development of tourism products in the Greater Northeast Coast tourism area and promote the integration of local resources with the travel market, the Northeast Coast and Yilan Coast National Scenic Area Administration of the Tourism Administration, Ministry of Transportation and Communications (hereinafter referred to as the Northeast Coast Administration) organized a New Taipei City familiarization tour on October 1. The tour focused on "low-carbon tourism, mountain and sea trails and local culture" and invited 20 travel industry representatives to visit the unique sites in the Northeast Coast.

Discovering the Sustainable Tourism Value of Local Areas Through Marine Waste Recycling

The first stop is "Starry Sky X Art Village," a sustainable community that combines vegan cuisine, eco-friendly aesthetics, and low-carbon tourism. Through hands-on experiences of recycling marine debris, visitors can learn how sustainability concepts can be transformed into engaging tourism content, starting with environmental issues. Starry Sky Art Village also combines local vegetarian cuisine to change the public's perception of vegan food. With delicious dishes and diverse experiences, it invites you to practice low-carbon, sustainable travel.

The mountain and sea trails offer unobstructed views of the northeastern coastline.

Accompanying tour operators on a walk along the Longdong Bay Cape Trail, the magnificent capes, coastal erosion landforms, and natural landscapes along the way allow visitors to experience firsthand the unique features of "trail tourism." In addition to the Longdong Bay Cape Trail, the Nanzilin Trail, Bitoujiao Trail, and Caoling Ancient Trail are also distinctive trails in the Northeast Coast. Amidst the sea breeze and mountain and sea views, visitors can gain a deeper understanding of the unique topography and landforms of the Northeast Coast through walking. This will further develop diverse products such as outdoor hiking, nature observation, geological education, and small group slow travel, extending the existing natural landscapes of the Northeast Coast from simple sightseeing stops to a more in-depth and participatory tourism experience.

The moon peach rope making experience showcases new possibilities for local revitalization in Nanya Community.

Finally, we arrived at "Nanya Community" and experienced moon peach rope weaving by hand. Through the introduction of local guides, we learned about the connection between natural materials, traditional techniques and community stories, and gained an in-depth understanding of the life of the Northeast Coast community. This made the unique community culture a distinctive highlight of in-depth tourism, and further created opportunities for tourists to stay and spend money locally.

20 travel industry professionals conducted on-site visits to examine market demand from the perspective of user experience.

Participating travel industry professionals stated that through on-site visits, they learned that local communities and unique sites within the Greater Northeast Coast tourism area also possess rich tourism content. Different experiences can increase tourists' opportunities to stay and learn about the places, making them suitable for developing in-depth tourism products that combine cultural stories and sustainability concepts. In the future, travel industry professionals can adjust walking intensity, stay methods, and experience content according to different customer groups. This has the potential for further packaging and marketing of small-group slow travel, outdoor hiking, sustainability-themed tours, and international travel itineraries.

Director Yu Li-yu of the Northeast Coast National Scenic Area Administration stated that the Greater Northeast Coast tourism area boasts complete mountain and sea landscapes, diverse community cultures, and abundant local industries. Through on-site inspections by travel agents, not only can the market gain a deeper understanding of local characteristics, but local businesses can also grasp the actual needs of travel products in terms of reception services, experience design, and itinerary integration. This will further promote the inclusion of areas and experiences with market potential in tour planning and product launches. It is hoped that through continued cooperation between the tourism industry and local communities, more domestic and international tourists will not only visit the Northeast Coast, but also truly immerse themselves in the life and culture between the mountains and the sea through walking, experiences, and local exchanges. Simultaneously, tourism will drive local participation, industrial development, and sustainable value, forming a more in-depth and long-term beneficial tourism model.
