Taiwan's Oldest Salt Fields

The tile-paved fields create a stunning checkered pattern that reflects the sky, making it a popular spot for photography, especially during sunrise and sunset.
Hands-On Salt Harvesting
Visitors to Jingzaijiao can experience traditional salt harvesting techniques themselves, using tools like wooden rakes to collect salt crystals from the fields.
