Fugui Station

Fugui Station, originally named Nanhe Station, is a quaint stop on Hsinchu's Neiwan Line, featuring a distinctive curved platform right next to a railway crossing. It was renamed Fugui (meaning 'wealth and honor') to create an auspicious pairing with Ronghua Station (meaning 'prosperity and glory') in Zhudong. The station draws many travelers with its strong nostalgic charm and mountain vistas. Despite its small size, it is steeped in history, with a simple platform design that evokes a sense of stepping back in time. Surrounded by mountains, Fugui Station boasts picturesque scenery. During autumn and winter, the nearby bald cypress forest transforms into a breathtaking display of golden and orange-red, making it a favorite spot for photographers. The interplay of the cypress trees and the railway, enhanced by the light of dawn or dusk, creates a scene straight out of a fairytale. From Fugui Station, visitors can easily reach Neiwan Old Street to enjoy local delicacies. Additionally, the nearby Neiwan Suspension Bridge and Hexing Station are unmissable attractions, enriching the travel experience with their blend of natural beauty and cultural narratives. Fugui Station is an ideal mid-point for a day trip to Neiwan. Whether taking the train to admire the scenic route or exploring the station's surroundings on foot, visitors can appreciate the harmonious blend of nature and culture. This charming station is not merely a transport hub, but a place to pause, unwind, and soak in the allure of Taiwan's mountain towns.
