Shops & shops all over with various foods and commodities for you to eat and look-see. Advisable to visit Chiu-fen with an empty stomach because of the vast varieties of local taiwanese delicacies suitable for the young and old.
Plenty of snacks to savour and souvenirs for you to buy.
Watch out for the very small houses perched on the hillslopes as you roam the area.

I think a stop at one of the tea houses or noddle shop is a must during your visit, not only you can get a feel of the local culture, you can also recharge your energy and absorb the view of the valley and ocean beyond.
