Miramar Golf & Country Club
About this course
The East Course at Miramar Golf & Country Club represents Jack Nicklaus's design work in northern Taiwan, situated in the Linkou district of New Taipei City. The course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the region's landscape, where the design takes advantage of natural elevation changes to create variety in hole presentation and strategic options. Nicklaus's approach here incorporates his signature emphasis on strategic bunkering and green complexes that reward precise approach play. The layout reflects the design principles Nicklaus brought to his international projects during the expansion of golf in Asia, with generous landing areas balanced by demanding second shots into well-defended greens. The topography allows for holes that play both uphill and downhill, creating different visual perspectives and shot requirements throughout the round. Water features appear on several holes, integrated into the strategic framework rather than serving purely aesthetic purposes. Miramar Golf & Country Club serves as a private facility catering to Taiwan's golf community, where the sport has maintained strong participation despite limited land availability in the densely populated northern region. The club provides traditional country club amenities alongside the golf courses, functioning as a recreational and social venue for its membership. The East Course shares the property with additional golf facilities, offering members variety in their playing options within the Linkou area, which has developed as one of the accessible golf destinations for Taipei-area players.

Getting there
Miramar Golf & Country Club is most readily reached via Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), situated approximately 40 kilometers southwest of the club; the drive north into New Taipei City typically unfolds across 50 to 60 minutes of modern expressway, transitioning gradually from the airport's industrial periphery into the verdant foothills that frame the Linkou district. For discerning travelers arriving by private aviation, Taipei Songshan Airport (TSA) offers a more intimate gateway, positioned considerably closer to the club and favored by regional business aviation. The final kilometers wind through the quietly prosperous suburbs of northern Taipei, where manicured residential developments give way to the lush, meticulously maintained grounds of Miramar itself - a sanctuary of championship golf and understated elegance that emerges almost unexpectedly from the landscape, its clubhouse a refined anchor to one of Taiwan's most exclusive golfing addresses.
