Hsinchu
Just south of Taoyuan is Hsinchu, a rustic farming area turned high-tech Mecca, with the establishment of the well-known Technology-based Industrial Park.
Hsinchu, located in northwestern Taiwan, enjoys a temperate climate and abundant fruit yields each season year-round, with each town and village seemingly having its own specialty. This is the foundation for Hsinchu's wealth of tourism resources. In recent for years, the shift of the thriving electronics and electronics manufacturing industries from Taipei to Hsinchu has formed a unique electronics industry pocket. In particular, the Hsinchu Science-Based Industrial Park and the Hukou Industrial Park together form a symbiotic industrial juggernaut. Spurred by trade liberalization, Hsinchu and the Taipei-Hsinchu belt is constantly growing closer to California's Silicon Valley, Japan, and the mainland Chinese industrial coast to form a trans-regional economic order without national borders.
In the 20 years since the founding of the Hsinchu Science-Based Industrial Park in 1980, the high-tech industrial structure is now fully in place, in turn driving the thriving development of peripheral industries, fully demonstrating the high-tech community effect. Today, the arrival of the high-tech industry has helped make Hsinchu second only to Taipei in the volume and frequency of foreign visitors in Taiwan. These elements have combined to bring about the rapid exchange of information, and to raise the interest of investors in the recreation and leisure industries, making Hsinchu the home of Taiwan's technology mavens.
