Houtong Cat Village

Nestled in the northeast of Taiwan, the Houtong Cat Village is a unique destination that has transformed from a former mining village into a haven for stray cats. Today, the number of felines exceeds the human population, creating a charming and whimsical atmosphere. Visitors can stroll through the village, observing the cats as they lounge in the sun, play, and interact with each other. The village, easily accessible as a day trip from Taipei and Keelung City, offers a peaceful and quirky experience, making it a delightful stop for both cat lovers and curious travelers.
