Bali District

Bali is a district in New Taipei, Taiwan. This is the newest tourist place in Taipei.

By bus
One easy way to get to Bali is via bus. From MRT Guandu station, take bus R13 or R22 (For Bali Ferry Pier and Formosa Fun Coast only), the bus ride takes about 20~30 minutes.

By boat
This is very popular among local people. The ferry comes from Tamsui, on the other side of the Danshui river, and arrives at Bali's Ferry Pier, as well as several piers along Bali Left Bank Park. Note that on weekends and holidays, you may have to wait for as more as an hour before being able to get aboard, while the ride only lasts for a few minutes.

CSF operates fast ferries (about 3 hours) from Pingtan in mainland China to Bali District and back. As of February 2019, it runs on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays (full schedule). Adult fares for non-Taiwan citizens start at NT$3,000 one-way, $5,300 round-trip if purchased in advance (fare table), a couple hundred more if purchased at the pier (fare table). Fares are cheaper for Taiwan/ROC citizens (advance/pier.

By bicycle
The best method to move in Bali is renting a bicycle. There are several places to get one near the pier where boats from Danshui arrive, and rental is inexpensive. Many of local attractions are located within a couple of kilometers from the boat pier and bike makes them all quickly accessible.

By foot
A walking trail is built along Danshui river. It is possible to walk to most attractions in Bali area while enjoying the view of waterfront. But of course it takes some time and energy.
