Taoyuan Theme Park

#fallishere We went to this taoyuan Theme park which is about a two hour ride from the Taipei area. It was a huge theme park that is suitable for everyone. It is the best to bring children along so that they can have fun with all the water sports as well as with all the exciting rides waiting for them. There is an admission ticket to the theme park. Be sure to bring one more set of clothing as you might get wet while playing at the theme park. It is really a great day to spend your time at the theme park.

Nanliao Fishing Harbor-Hsinchu City, Taiwan

Nanliao Fishing Harbor is just one of the famous tourist spots in Taiwan. It is a fishing port located in the Northern District of Hsinchu City. This place is perfect for weekends or afternoon getaways. I have come here many times but this was our company’s Family Outing and the time was only limited but we enjoyed and had fun!!! We rented a bike to enjoy the coastal scenic view and had a delicious lunch at the restaurant. If you wish to go there, take a train to Hsinchu station. Ride bus No.15 which will take you directly to the fish port for about 10-15mins. Or ride a taxi for faster and easier transportation. You may want to stay until late afternoon to witness the beautiful sunset. Enjoy the local seafoods or watch people flying kites! Worth to visit and experience.😊 #taiwantravel #mustvisit #touristsattraction #fun

Self-driving around Taiwan Island Guide - A healing journey for myself

Before the New Year, the unfinished work and endless papers once made me anxious to the point of insomnia, often waking up in the middle of the night and sitting up looking at the room not knowing where I was, so I decided to take a week-long self-driving tour around Taiwan, China for the New Year. We chose to start from Taipei and go around the island counterclockwise, from several key cities and counties along the west coast to Kenting, and then back to Taipei via the east coast. During this trip, we experienced coastal plains, lakes, mountains, wetlands, rural areas, tribes, and urban life, which is a deep experience of Taiwan's geography and life. Here is our self-driving route and some memorable points: Day 1: Hong Kong, China - Taipei, Taiwan, China, landing at Taoyuan Airport to exchange New Taiwan dollars, pick up the car, and buy a phone card. It is recommended to buy a phone card to provide a Taiwanese phone number. Start the journey as soon as you get the car, the first stop is Danshui. Day 2: New Year in Taipei. There are many guides to Taipei, you can search for them yourself. Day 3: Taipei - Taichung (Plain). En route and activities: Xinfeng: visited a local temple fair, saw fields and villages. Hsinchu: Recommend Taiwan Tsinghua University, Nanliao Fishing Port - the closest place to the mainland of China, but be aware that there are many stray dogs, Hsinchu City Temple, be sure to go into the market inside, there are people singing opera at night, the experience is very magical. Stay in Taichung at night. Day 4: Taichung - Tainan (Inland Lakes and Mountains). En route and activities: Changhua: Lukang Town, as if stepping into the 1970s. Sun Moon Lake. Yushan National Park: The mountain road is very difficult to walk, pay attention to refueling in advance, you can enjoy the highest mountain in Taiwan Province, Yushan, at the highest point. Alishan. Chiayi: A mountain road comparable to a roller coaster, and a rural area deep in the clouds, passing a celebration in a village in the public field, the female host is leading the villagers to sing Dinosaur Carrying Wolf. Tainan: Avoid Lei Ji Village Hotel, pit. Day 5: Tainan - Kenting (more coastal fisheries). En route and activities: Tainan: South Kanlou. Kaohsiung: Taiwan's second largest city. Kenting National Park, you can stay longer, from Kenting is where I feel Taiwan is really a vacation place. Day 6: Kenting - Taitung - Hualien (extremely tired but extremely beautiful). The villages, life and scenery of this section are completely different from the west coast, with a lot of ethnic characteristics. We experienced the indigenous wedding, the wetland landscape of Taiwan, and the mountains and the sea. Day 7: Hualien - Yilan - Taipei. I highly recommend Hualien, the sea of the Seven Star Lake Scenic Area is intoxicating. The Qingshui Cliff is lingering. This section is very clear and there are many lonely towns. If you are driving at night, you can take a starry sky picture at the Tropic of Cancer. Due to word limit, if you have any travel-related questions, you can ask me in the comment section, I can answer more in detail. Happy New Year
