Great 4.0
This was a fairly basic trampoline park. if you're from America, you might be underwhelmed. But it's large, clean, and the employees were nice. It was almost.wmoty when. we were there so the kids could run around all they want. We bought our voucher on site and saved a couple dollars. No need to purchase in advance.

Great environment and very comfortable overall! High value for the price. There are many board games to choose from, and outdoor bubble balls and badminton are also available. The dinner hot pot and grill portions are more than enough! There are also DIY craft activities to join.

We went during a long holiday. After driving there, someone guided us to a large parking lot under the bridge (though it's a bit prone to dust and sand). After crossing the bridge, you arrive at the animal school. The environment is very clean. When the weather is hot, the dining seating area has water mist sprayers and several large electric fans going, so it doesn't feel overly hot. It's quite comfortable. You can sit in the seating area and watch the kids play on the slide (they provide free helmets and protective gear, and just letting the kids play there can keep them occupied for an hour 🤣). There aren't a huge number of animals in the park, but the grounds are quite large and have a very natural, rustic feel, making it feel like a great hike in the mountains. There are still plenty of places to interact with the animals, such as feeding the capybaras, watching the foxes and meerkats, and feeding the horses. Overall, I highly recommend it because the environment is really spacious, clean, and comfortable. There is also a shuttle bus ($20 one-way, free on weekdays), a splash pad for playing in the water, very friendly staff, convenient parking, and plenty of restrooms that are relatively clean. Therefore, if you have children, it is recommended to stay for three to four hours or more (including interactive animal experiences and playing on the slide). The only downside is that the food inside the park is quite expensive, and during the long holiday, the wait was very long (at the small food stand near the slide area, the food took almost an hour). However, there are vending machines available in the park as well.

We went here because our son loves cars and vehicles so much. There is not much crowd when we visited so it is like having the entire park almost to ourselves! We were able to ride multiple times with no queue at all.

Highly recommend this museum for just about anyone. Great price for adults and free for seniors (65+) and elementary school kids. There are six floors of interactive exhibits for all ages AND virtually all of them are also in English. The IMAX film (~17 minutes) was also great! I went on a Tuesday with half of the elementary schools in the city so just a heads up as there were kids everywhere (loud and running around). Eat before or after as not many options and not good. Could easily spend all day there. Water refills stations and bathrooms throughout and exhibits were well done.

Highly recommended - felt safe all throughout the crazy windy bus ride to and from Alishan! Thank you as well to our tour guide, Henry! Prepare to go up and down some stairs. It’s quite a fast-paced trip but still enjoyed time with nature.

I'm truly touched that the Detective Conan anime has been with me for 30 years 🥰. Seeing so many intricate animation details in the exhibition area really made us gasp in awe ✨️. There were also paper models of the 'Mouri Detective Agency,' 'Professor Agasa's House,' and 'Kudo's House' 🏠. So that's what the interiors look like! I really love the bookshelf in the Kudo house 📚🥰. 🌟 [Voice Actor Dubbing 🎙] When I saw Ran's voice actress, Ms. Wakana Yamazaki 🩷, my eyes welled up with tears 🥺. Thank you, Sensei, for accompanying Conan and growing up with us 🫶. We will always love you 🥰❤️. 🌟 We spent a long time watching the [Past Theme Songs 🎶]! We wanted to just sit on the floor and enjoy them properly 🌸 (but we stood obediently). We even discussed how Conan has dancing in some of his OPs 🕺. Conan actually dances really well ✨️, even though he's tone-deaf! 😆 🌟 [Exclusive Thank You Theater 📽] It's rare to see everyone gathered together like that ❣️. I really loved this celebratory surprise 🎉🎉🎉. Everyone holding their 'self-colored roses 🌹' was truly beautiful! 🥰

I have to give it 5-stars based on value for your money. Seniors (65+) and primary school kids are free, and adults are less than $2! I paid extra for the little zoo tram as it was crazy hot, hundreds of school kids, and the monkeys are no joke! stole a water bottle right out of a boy’s hand in a big school group (ran off with it)! The best part was the water area, like a splash pad. Although older and rundown, it did the job of cooling us off. There’s 3 areas, with rain water coming from above, and two shallow areas maybe 1-4 inches of water. Animals weren’t too active due to heat/sun. Don’t recommend eating here as not many options, nor good quality.
