Penghu is an incredible place to explore, full of white sand beaches, dramatic coastline, historical relics and its own delicious cuisine. We will be showing you Penghuโs BEST street food, local restaurants and seafood joints - as well as the best things to see and do in Penghu Taiwan! Letโs go! We start there day in Magong City, near the Old Street, for a typical Taiwanese street food breakfast. A stall that was making fresh shaobing ็้ค was our first stop. We watched the process of how the shaobing was made from scratch and then ordered one with bacon and egg. The chef was kind and gave us another kind for free, youtiao ๆฒนๆข with peanut butter. Just down the street was another stall serving freshly fried youtiao and soy milk ่ฑๆผฟ. This is a very traditional Taiwanese breakfast, and it was interesting to watch the chefs prepare everything from scratch. After exploring Zhongyang Old Street, we hopped on our scooter and explored the different islands of Penghu. Our first stop was the Tongliang Great Banyan tree ้ๆจๅคๆฆ. Legend says that the massive network of trees started from just one tree. Now it extends over the entire area up to the temple! We stopped to try Penghuโs famous cactus ice cream. The cactus fruit from Penghu creates a beautiful deep pink ice cream with a tart raspberry-like flavour. It is a MUST in the Penghu heat. Next, we visit the Whale Cave Geopark ้ฏจ้ญๆด to see the crystal blue coast, the basalt columns and the cave formation that looks like a whale. This a great lookout and just next to the Whale Cave is a food court. We ordered Penghu Squid Noodles, which is served with chewy squid, vermicelli noodles and a spicy sauce. These are DELICIOUS!!! We highly recommend trying this dish at this restaurant. We went to Erkan Village ไบๅด่่ฝไฟๅญๅ which is a historical town with hundreds of years of preserved history and unique architecture using coral rocks. We cooled off with another cactus fruit specialty, cactus juice! We also tried a local style douhua ่ฑ่ฑ with sugar syrup, Penghu peanuts and green bean. For sunset we visited the most beautiful beach we have ever been to - Naian Beach ๅ งๅต้ๆฉๅ. We walked along the white sand beach, played in the warm, crystal clear ocean and watched the sun go down over the horizon, which painted the sky in orange, pink and purple hues. Seafood should not be missed in Penghu and we visited an all-you-can-eat seafood BBQ. At your table you have a charcoal grill and you can choose as much seafood as you desire. Their specialty is fresh oysters, but we also tried shrimp, crab, squid, vegetables and more! The oysters were the best and it was very affordable for Penghu seafood!
