No exact match for rent in Yilan City

Yilan City: Convenience meets urban vibes

Yilan City, the administrative and commercial hub of Yilan County, offers the most comprehensive living amenities. The city is home to the Yilan Train Station, which connects you to Taipei in about an hour by Taiwan Railways, making daily commuting or weekend getaways super convenient. Plus, with National Highway buses and High-Speed Rail shuttles, Yilan City’s ties to the Taipei metropolitan area are stronger than those of other towns in the county.

When it comes to amenities, Yilan City has it all—supermarkets, shopping malls, hospitals, and schools—everything you need for daily life. If you're into urban living but don't want the hustle and bustle of a big city like Taipei, Yilan City offers a more laid-back yet well-connected alternative.

Yilan County: Nature and tranquillity at its best

On the flip side, Yilan County covers a much wider area, including unique towns like Luodong, Jiaoxi, and Toucheng. These places offer a closer connection to nature, but in return, transportation and commercial development are more limited. If you don’t need to commute to Taipei frequently, Yilan County could be your perfect fit.

For instance, Luodong boasts the biggest night market in Yilan and has great commercial amenities, though it's a bit farther from the city center. Jiaoxi, known for its hot springs, is a great spot for those seeking a resort-like vibe. Toucheng offers stunning coastal views, perfect for surfers and ocean lovers.
