This long, flat road walk through the northern Hsinchu County won't prove much of a test for your legs, but it will keep your eyes and mind busy. Ancestral halls, lascivious temple art, air-drying produce and watermelon stacks line the route from Zhubei's outskirts all the way to the sleepy town of Guanxi.
